Cananga Essential Oil
Cananga essential oil is steam-distilled from fresh flowers grown in Indonesia. This flower belongs to the same family as Ylang Ylang, so their scents are quite similar. However, Cananga has a lighter, less sweet floral fragrance than Ylang Ylang.
Cananga oil is renowned for its skin-nourishing and therapeutic effects, particularly in relieving depression and anxiety, while Ylang Ylang is commonly used for hair care, as a fragrance, and to aid with insomnia. Depending on your needs, you can choose the right type of Cananga oil that suits you best.

What is the difference between natural essential oils and synthetic fragrances?
