Ylang‑ylang (Cananga odorata) is a flowering tree whose fragrant blossoms are harvested to produce an essential oil. It is traditionally used to boost the immune system, soothe respiratory and gastrointestinal irritation, support heart function, and increase stamina, and it has also been applied as an aphrodisiac and for menstrual and liver conditions, though clinical evidence is limited. When used as an oil or topical extract, it can irritate skin and trigger allergic reactions, and ingestion may stimulate the heart and interact with certain medications, so it should be used cautiously.
