Ylang Ylang Essential Oil 4 fl oz.

This Natural Riches brand Ylang Ylang oil is lighter in fragrance and more pungent than another brand I've sampled. It smells like basic ladies perfume and it's made from flowers. It is great in a diffuser just don't overdo it as it can be a bit on the sweet heavy side. You can use a few drops of it in another less attractive smelling oil for use on your skin also. Overall a good odor-chasing effect though.

The scent is very appealing & relaxing

Great value and heavenly scent is a great bargain!

As others have noted, this Natural Riches™️ Ylang Ylang Essential Oil ingredients are listed as "Ylang Ylang Essential oil with isolates." But what does "with isolates" mean?Isolates are actually part of the essential oil. Fractional distillation is the most common way to get isolates from essential oils. To do this the plant product, in this case Ylang Ylang flowers, are boiled in a still. As the material is heated, the vapor rises into a long column above the still. The vapor is repeatedly condensed and re-evaporated as it moves toward the top, which distills the vapor many times. The less volatile substances in the vapor tend to run back down the column after they condense, concentrating near the bottom. The more volatile ones often re-evaporate and move upward, concentrating near the top. Because of this, the column can be tapped at various levels to draw off different fractions or "isolates."Using a higher concentration of specific isolates is done to increase a certain aspect of the scent. It is all essential oil but it has been tweaked a bit to make give it certain desirable qualities. This process takes more time and money but results in a better essential oil.Ylang-ylang in Tagalog means “flower of flowers.” Ylang-ylang, also known as the cananga tree, is native to the Philippines. It grows to up to 80 feet tall and has star-shaped, greenish-yellow blossoms year round that are used to make essential oils. Street kids in Manila can be seen selling delicate leis, or necklaces, made with Ylang Ylang and Sampaguita (Filipino Jasmine) flowers on street corners. Drivers buy these to help the children and also to hang from their rear-view mirrors as an air freshener.The fragrance of Natural Riches™️ Ylang Ylang Essential Oil is the exact same smell as the essential oil I used for soap making in the Philippines. This smell in my Iowa living room now, takes me back to a conversation I had with a group of children and their mother from Antipolo who were selling these flower necklaces on the street near Greenhills. They were attempting to support their families. I pray that God would, even now, breath a fresh blessing into their lives and draw them to Himself. For me, I'm not sure it's the fragrance so much that is calming as it is the good memories that come with it.

Smells absolutely wonderous. Such a lovely, sensual, calming aroma. Reminds me of jasmine, rose, and lilac. Robust too- I can add a drop to a bit of unscented moisturizer and it lingers all day. Delicious aromaThe intense aroma is from the use of ISOLATES (isolated part of the natural essential oil specifically taken out for its aroma or specific note.). This is only a bad thing IF you are looking to gain benefit from the pure essential oil beyond scent. If you are only using it for scent, then it is not worrisome as it is just helping the essential oil smell like the actual plant/flower. Ever get an essential oil and have it not smell anything like what you are used to smelling from the plant/fruit/flower? (grapefruit or lavender for example). That would be a true essential oil versus one with isolates. Not all companies state that they use isolates, hence why something can be an essential oil that is best for use in scenting candles, lotions, use in diffusers, etc, but will be lacking if wanting it for therapeutic value (ie anti bacterial, anti fungal). Those you have to dig for to find a good company.Since Ylanglang is typically used more for scent, and any benefit is generated from the scent (mood based benefits) then I think this is perfectly good as is.Anway, this is first time I have actually seen a label list isolates alongside the essential oil and they should have that listed on the product page (with explanation of what it is).5 stars for robust gorgeous aroma, little goes a long way, nice dropperminus 1 star for not having same info on product page as is on bottle.4 stars, overall
