🌴 Where does doTERRA Ylang Ylang come from?

doTERRA Ylang Ylang essential oil is sustainably sourced from Madagascar, an island nation well known for producing some of the world’s most aromatic and high-quality botanicals.

The Cananga odorata tree thrives in warm tropical climates and produces soft yellow flowers with an intensely sweet floral aroma. These flowers are carefully hand-harvested and steam distilled to produce the essential oil.

The result is a pure essential oil with a rich floral scent that feels calming, luxurious, and deeply grounding.
