Perfumery
OLFACTORY DESCRIPTION
Probably one of the most generous floral notes of all. This rich ylang-ylang gets its olfactory singularity from the exceptional process used to harvest its precious oil. The freshness of the flower is preserved thanks to a mobile distillation carried out at the very moment of picking. These few minutes saved represent an immeasurable contribution for the perfumer because the top note thus delivered is infinitely more refined, complex and subtle. The introductory cocktail is at once floral, fruity, almondy, green and solar, in an intertwining that can only amaze.
The olfactory spectrum gradually focuses on the velvety and vanilla-like sweetness of a white flower, where Lily and Jasmine, Hyacinth and Tuberose meet. All at once, and moreover inimitable, irreducible … Finally, the whole is warmed, enveloping, while pointing to the background musky aphrodisiac and indomitable.

In food
FEMA Number* : 2598
The FEMA number is an international food safety number. It is essential to be able to use them in food, without it, you are not allowed to consume them. Le Sourceur rejects any responsibility in case of non respect of these rules. Essential oils are also very concentrated, a single drop is often enough to flavor your cold dishes, when we consider a maximum of 3 to 4 drops on a hot dish. Be careful with their use in cooking, too much of them can be dangerous or even fatal. If in doubt, contact a specialist.
Our premises
We recommend the essential oil of Ylang Ylang for a small perfumed touch, go with parsimony at the risk of tasting your dish several times before tasting it.
• In compotes, jams or smoothies
• Yoghurt cake, pancakes
