Ylang Ylang 3 Essential Oil, Madagascar, (least floral, more earthy), is sweet, floral (though less than premium Ylang) a sort of balsamic under tone and subtile woody notes.  Ylang Ylang was once referred to as the "poor man's Jasmine."  However Ylang Ylang need not be compared to any other oil and is great aroma in and of itself.  Eighty percent of Ylang Ylang oil is derived from the Comoro Islands.  Usually distillations occur in three seperate collections and classified accordingly.
