Product Description

Cananga essential oil is steam distilled from the flowers of Cananga odorata in Indonesia. A close relative of ylang ylang, it has a softer, sweet floral note with a woody, slightly leathery depth.

Used in perfumery, soap, candles, hair care and body care, often as a cost-effective floral heart note. Blends well with bergamot, sandalwood, vetiver, jasmine and orange.
