For Aromatherapy: Add 1–3 drops to a diffuser filled with the manufacturer-recommended amount of water. Begin with one drop because Ylang Ylang Oil has an intense and persistent aroma.

For Romantic Ambience: Blend 1 drop with Rose, Jasmine, Neroli, Sweet Orange or Sandalwood Essential Oil in a well-ventilated room.

For Topical Use: Dilute no more than 1 drop in 30 ml of a suitable carrier oil before applying to a small area of skin. Commercial cosmetic formulations must follow their applicable IFRA product-category limit.

For Facial Care: Add no more than 1 drop to 30 ml of jojoba, argan or another suitable facial carrier oil. Apply sparingly after performing a patch test.

For Hair and Scalp Care: Add 1 drop to 15–30 ml of coconut, jojoba, argan or another suitable carrier oil. Massage gently into the scalp and wash thoroughly after the desired application time.

For Massage: Add 1 drop to 30 ml of sweet almond, jojoba, fractionated coconut or another suitable carrier oil.

For Personal Fragrance: Incorporate sparingly into a professionally formulated perfume base according to the applicable IFRA limit. Do not apply the undiluted oil directly to pulse points.

For Bath Use: Mix 1 drop thoroughly with a prepared bath base or suitable cosmetic solubiliser before adding to warm bathwater. Never add undiluted essential oil directly to the bath.

For external and aromatic use only. Do not ingest. Never apply undiluted Ylang Ylang Essential Oil directly to the skin.

Ylang Ylang Oil is highly concentrated and is associated with skin-sensitisation concerns. Always use a low dilution and perform a patch test before first use.

Cosmetic and fragrance formulations must follow the supplier’s current Certificate of Analysis, Safety Data Sheet, allergen declaration and product-category-specific IFRA certificate. There is no single dilution limit suitable for every finished product.

Avoid contact with the eyes, inner ears, nostrils, mucous membranes and other sensitive areas. Do not apply to broken, inflamed, freshly shaved or highly sensitive skin.

Excessive diffusion or use may cause headache, nausea, dizziness or discomfort in sensitive individuals. Begin with a minimal quantity and diffuse intermittently in a spacious, well-ventilated area.

Keep out of reach of children and pets. Consult a qualified healthcare professional before use during pregnancy, breastfeeding, while taking medication or if you have allergies, sensitive skin or a medical condition.

Discontinue use if redness, itching, irritation, headache, nausea or breathing discomfort occurs.

Store tightly closed in a cool, dry and dark place away from direct sunlight, heat, sparks and open flames.
