YLANG YLANG III ESSENTIAL OIL

Ylang Ylang III Essential Oil in Bulk for Cosmetics

Ylang Ylang III essential oil (CAS 8006-81-3) is one of the distillation fractions most requested by cosmetic laboratories and artisan soap makers for its balance between cost and floral aromatic profile. This guide explains what it is, where it comes from, and its most common cosmetic applications in professional formulation, aimed at B2B buyers sourcing bulk essential oils with traceable origin.

What is Ylang Ylang III Essential Oil?

Ylang Ylang III is one of the fractions obtained during the fractional steam distillation of Cananga odorata flowers, grown mainly in Madagascar and the Indian Ocean islands. Unlike the Extra fraction, Fraction III is collected later in the distillation process, giving it a deeper, less volatile olfactory profile with balsamic notes alongside the floral ones.

Its composition includes linalool, germacrene D, geranyl acetate, benzyl acetate and linalyl acetate, compounds that provide both its characteristic floral scent and the relaxing, balancing properties valued in cosmetic formulation for skin and hair. Royal Bio supplies this essential oil in bulk with technical data sheet and origin traceability for laboratories that need stable volumes.

Main Cosmetic Uses of Ylang Ylang III Essential Oil

Natural perfumery in cosmetics. Thanks to its floral-balsamic profile, this fraction is used as a heart or base note in natural fragrance formulation for creams, gels and personal care products, adding persistence without overpowering the overall scent.

Hair care. It is incorporated into shampoos, masks and hair serums for its balancing action on the scalp, commonly featured in lines aimed at oily hair or scalp imbalances.

Relaxing facial and body cosmetics. Used in massage oils, creams and balms formulated to convey a sense of well-being, a common added value in professional spa and wellness lines.

Artisan soap making. Thanks to its good stability and lasting scent after saponification, it is a recurring choice among soap makers looking for bulk essential oils with a competitive price-quality ratio compared to the Extra fraction.
