One of the most well-known products in which Kananga fragrance is used is Ylang-ylang oil. Due to its distinctive scent, this oil is particularly popular in aromatherapy, where it is used for its relaxing and unwinding effects. In addition to the oil, its extract is also used in cosmetics as an ingredient in perfumes, soaps, shampoos and various types of creams. Thanks to its antimicrobial and antiseptic activity, kananga is also used in some skin and hair care products.
