Not Irritating

The fragrance is too strong... I'm not usually sensitive to scents, but after applying just a drop to my hair, it felt somewhat artificial. I'm not sure how to describe it, but the scent was so overpowering that I wanted to wash my hair again... If they could improve the fragrance, I'd consider repurchasing.

The staying power is truly the best. I used it on my hair and the lingering scent lasted all day! Its versatility is a huge plus - you can use it for massages, in your hair, or mix it with body cream.

에센셜 오일 싱글 [일랑일랑]

I think it works best in a humidifier, but I've also sprayed it on my blanket and dolls.

Scent: First, the fragrance isn't to my taste and it's too strong. It seems to mellow out from the second day, which is better.

Packaging: The packaging was shockingly careless. It came in a cardboard tube, which was disappointing.

Longevity: Compared to other oils, this has a deep fragrance with incredible staying power. I put a couple of drops on a doll, and the scent lasted for about 3 days.

Gentle: Being a natural essence, it's non-irritating and doesn't have a cheap smell. It definitely has a luxurious, stable scent.

Aromatherapy: On days I use it, I feel like I fall asleep more comfortably and deeply. Not sure if it's a placebo effect, but it gives me that feeling...

Easy to control: I like that it dispenses just a drop or two at a time. I've seen some products that pour out excessively with just a slight tilt.

The fragrance is extremely potent. Please use only a very small amount!

- Fragrance

The scent is extremely strong... I get headaches from overpowering fragrances, and this one gave me quite a long-lasting headache when I first received it. My mom and sister also said it wasn't to their taste. As mentioned above, I think the fragrance will be very polarizing. You really need to apply just a tiny amount! (This is crucial) Because the scent is incredibly long-lasting and potent, those sensitive to fragrances or prone to headaches from strong scents should be cautious.

1. Versatility

- I always add a few drops of oil to my room humidifier, and I tried the ylang-ylang oil too. The scent is very strong and long-lasting - just one or two drops can keep the room fragrant all day! I liked this because other oils lose their scent quickly, requiring several drops. When I first smelled this oil, the fragrance was so strong it gave me a headache, but it's much better when diluted in water. The lingering scent is definitely more pleasant after the initial strong aroma dissipates.

- Since I enjoyed using the oil in the humidifier, I tried adding a couple of drops during my foot bath. It was so relaxing! With just a small amount, the scent is subtle, helping to relieve fatigue and providing a nice change of pace to my routine these days.

- I used to use hair mist for a pleasant scent when my hair was flying around, but now I just apply a tiny drop before drying my hair, and the fragrance lasts all day.

2. Moisturizing effect

The scent was too strong to mix into skincare, but I added a drop to my body emulsion. The oil seemed to boost the moisturizing effect compared to using the emulsion alone.

3. Fragrance

The scent is somewhat... exotic, like fresh flowers? There's also a slight medicinal smell. The fragrance is likely to be quite divisive in terms of personal preference.

Using it in your humidifier can create a calming atmosphere thanks to its herbal aroma, giving you that sense of healing and relaxation.

Since this product is meant to be mixed with others, I'm a bit concerned about potential blemishes if it doesn't agree with my skin. To be safe, I'm planning to use it in my humidifier instead.

I heard that ylang-ylang is a must-have floral note in perfumes, so I expected a sweet scent. When I applied it to my wrist, I was surprised by the sharp, herbal aroma that hit me! The fragrance was so intense that I immediately washed it off with soap. Wondering how to use this properly, I visited the official website to find out more.

And guess what! The recommended usage for ylang-ylang oil is to add a drop to your favorite skincare or hair products. Since most of our regular skincare and hair products come in larger volumes, adding a drop of ylang-ylang oil would dilute it nicely. It makes sense that applying several drops directly to bare skin would result in an overpowering scent, as it's meant to be mixed with other products.

At first, I thought the sharp, strong scent was off-putting, but after mixing it with other products, I found it blended beautifully. In fact, if it had been a sweeter scent, it might have clashed when mixed. I love how versatile this fragrance is - it seems to complement any product. Plus, it reminds me of the soothing scents you'd find in an aromatherapy massage salon, giving me that sense of relaxation and healing.

I used it like perfume and then mixed it with Vaseline to apply on areas that needed hydration! The scent became much more subtle, which I liked. I recommend mixing a drop or two with your unscented cream when using it!

Also, I love having a subtle scent in my hair, so I put a couple of drops on my hands and gently applied it to my hair. The delicate lingering fragrance was really nice!

1. Hydration

The hydration was just okay. I think this product works better when mixed with other products rather than on its own for moisturizing.

2. Price

It's about ⅓ the size of a palm, but the price is quite high. So it's a bit burdensome to buy with my own money... However, it's great for mixing with other products, so I think it's very versatile!

1. Absorbs well and application

The application is incredibly light! At first, I thought it might have an oily texture, but it absorbs quickly! Afterwards, my skin felt soft and smooth, which I loved.

2. Lingering scent

The fragrance lingers very strongly! Even when using just a single drop like perfume, the scent seems to last for half a day. I recommend this to those who enjoy heavier scents. It's also great for people looking for a long-lasting fragrance.

Since this is a natural oil, I found out you can even apply it to your hair. Surprisingly, the lingering scent was quite nice when applied to hair. Give it a try that way!

It's not a perfume-like fragrance. It's truly the kind of scent you'd find in an aromatherapy room! This might be perfect for those looking for aromatherapy products.

The lingering scent was better than I expected. It's like a leafy smell? A woody scent with a very subtle hint of wildflowers? That's what it was like.

The medicinal-like smell really put me off using it regularly. I only applied it behind my ears occasionally before bed or when I needed to focus on a task.

Personally, I found the scent wasn't to my taste at all. However, since fragrance preferences can vary widely, those who like this type of scent might find it quite nice.

Scent:
The fragrance seems to be a love-it-or-hate-it type. It has a very strong smell - a bit like tea tree, somewhat like propolis, and also a strong floral scent. It's hard to define exactly, but I guess it's ylang-ylang! If you use it in your room once, the scent lingers until the next day.

Price:
It's really expensive for the amount you get. Maybe because it's a natural oil? I'd hesitate to buy it. If you're not used to natural oils, I recommend carefully considering reviews and the scent before purchasing!

As it's an oil, it doesn't mix well with water-based moisturizers or products with high water content.

Texture:
Not as oily as expected, so even those with oily skin might find it suitable if the ingredients work for them!

Application:
I liked that the finish wasn't too greasy or slippery. It's great to mix with other cream products.

Absorption:
It doesn't just sit on top of the pores. With enough rolling, it absorbs well into the skin.

Hydration:
I typically used it for night care, and my skin felt soft and supple even the next morning!

Recommended Skin Type:
I heard it helps balance skin's oil and moisture. So naturally, it's good for dry skin, but even those with oily skin might benefit if used properly.

When applied to the face, there's a slight tingling and warm sensation, especially now that it's dry. It feels like it's helping with skin regeneration!
At first, it can make your face a bit flushed, with dry areas turning red. But this subsides after a while.

For those with sensitive skin who are hesitant to apply it directly, using it in a diffuser would be fantastic! Just a drop or two in the diffuser releases a subtle, pleasant ylang-ylang oil scent that really improves the mood.

For those without sensitive skin, mixing about half a drop into your emulsion or toner could work wonders. I've read that it provides excellent hydration!

Price: While I understand that it's somewhat expected for a natural essential oil to be pricey, it still seems a bit expensive for students like me.

Scent: This fragrance will definitely have its lovers and haters. Even for me, the initial scent was so intense that it made me dizzy and I didn't like it at first. It has a very exotic aroma, like something you've never smelled before. It's heavy and extremely strong.

Hello everyone! Today I'll be reviewing an oil product. I'm writing this review as a winner of The Hwahae Testers program! The price of this natural essential oil is 78,000 won for 15ml... I was quite surprised when I saw that! I've been worried about finding a good oil lately, so I'm grateful for this opportunity to try it out through The Hwahae Testers.

Skin type: My skin is super sensitive and reacts to even slightly unfavorable ingredients.

Age: I'm 15 years old, born in 2006.

Scent: The fragrance is incredibly strong! It's really potent with a slightly bitter note... The scent lasts for a very long time! Since it's so intense and long-lasting, I think this product will last a while. Oh, and the lingering scent is amazing! It's not overwhelming at all, and personally, I love the afterscent!

Benefits: It's said to be great for stress relief, calming effects, and even for people with high blood pressure! Also, from my experience, after using it in a diffuser, I fell asleep faster and more comfortably than usual.

- The scent is extremely strong and I absolutely dislike it. It's hard to describe, but it smells somewhat medicinal and reminds me of a strong dental office odor. It's just strange!

- I thought it might be better when diluted, but I was completely wrong. Due to the scent, I couldn't use it in various ways. I didn't have the courage to mix it into an emulsion and apply it. I was worried the scent would linger on my face.

If I had spent my own money on this, I would have given it one star, but since I got it for free through an event, I'm giving it an extra star.

- Single ingredient ylang-ylang flower oil

- Ylang-ylang oil is known to help with stress relief and has a calming effect

- The fragrance has excellent longevity and diffusion

It works best when mixed with your moisturizer. You could also try adding a few drops to a spray toner for easy application.

At first, the scent can be a bit overwhelming. Despite being natural, it has a strong chemical-like smell that made me double-check the ingredients. Those sensitive to fragrances might find it uncomfortable.

If you're new to face oils, be sure to check the instructions! I mix it with my final moisturizer step, and it feels rich but not heavy. It doesn't sit on top of the skin, but rather absorbs well. I use it every three days rather than daily.
