Essential oils are doors to new experiences and Ylang Ylang is a more sensual oil that can be blended into massage oils and creams.

The tree is native to Indonesia and Malaysia and star-shaped pale yellow flowers with trailing and twisting petals produce a heady aromatic scent that also seems to have a slight lemony edge. The flowers are collected at night in May and June and the essential oil that is distilled is a highly evocative fragrance.

Soft, exciting, sensual and almost invigorating yet makes you sleepy. A highly complex fragrance that leaves you a bit heady and definitely in the mood to relax. This oil is perfect for sensual moments, massage, bubble baths or just to apply to your wrists before bed. I've also been known to sprinkle this around smooth stones placed around candles.

I would only recommend this essential oil for use when you don't have to be very aware and can drift off into a dreamy sleep. Add this oil to your evening bath or put a few drops on the top of your head before you do your evening yoga
routine.

For those new to essential oils, there is a temptation to buy synthetic oils at the bargain basement. My plea: do not! They are made from mineral oil (a euphemism for petroleum), and excitotoxins. Despite their plesant smell, they are not healthful. Aura Cacia, as well as other brands, use the real plant extracts. Their concentration makes the cost differential less. And they have the scientific evidence behind them as well as theraputic value.

Ten drops in 6 oz of water, used as an area spray, will last you.

This oil has a bit of green leafy smell to it, as if the essence was taken from the oranges AND their leaves. Don't get me wrong it is still good, but a bit different from what I had expected. If you just want the sweet smell go for a different brand. On the other hand this one seems to have a more natural smell compared to other orange-scented oils I've tried.

Traditional uses of Sweet Orange Oil include calming palpitations, using in a steam inhaler for bronchitis, and has been reported as helpful for the skin if used in the smallest quantities. I LOVE this aroma. The quality of this oil is not great but good.

The fragrance is exactly like an orange peel. It makes your skin somewhat photosensitive, so don't expose yourself to sunlight, if you use it on your skin. I can't say much about it, since I'm new to essential oils.

Aura Cacia's Sweet Orange essential oil reminds me of fresh-squeezed orange juice. It is good to use in the morning when you are trying to wake up. It will brighten your mood and make you feel peaceful and relaxed. It can also be used to overcome depression. The only thing you should really be aware of is that you shouldn't use this on your skin if you are going out in the sun. It is recommended that you not go out in the sunlight for 12 hours after use. Of all the oils I use on a daily basis this one makes me the happiest.

Its ok, I don't like it that much, I made an order from another company I am hoping it smells more pleasant.

I use Sweet Orange essential oil at the end of the massages I give as a subtle way to bring the client back to their senses. Plantlife's brand definitely has stronger, sweeter notes than all of the other similar essential oils I have used, so that I use less product per client. Recommend it highly.

Bought several essential oils from this company- pleased with product, shipping, price. Will order similar products from this company again.

Aura Cacia has never disappointed me, and their rosemary oil is no different. Really great stuff, I would highly recomend it!
