From the Flower of Flowers

A legendary Indonesian bloom, captured at its most refined.

- Cananga odorata grows on tall tropical trees across Indonesia, the Philippines and Madagascar, with star-shaped yellow petals harvested at dawn.

- "Extra" refers to the very first fraction of distillation — the most delicate, floral and sought-after grade for fine perfumery.

- Indonesian brides traditionally find ylang ylang petals strewn across the marriage bed, a centuries-old symbol of love and union.

Very well

nice scent, I bought it on the recommendation of many, but I personally didn't like it that much. I always use it in a diffuser with a combination of other oils.
