Guest guest Posted April 20, 2008 Report Share Posted April 20, 2008 Say speaking of Ylang ylang, what is the technical difference between " extra " and " complete " ? Katlyn Hi hi Katlyn and All Ylang Ylang Extra is the first extraction and more concentrated . Then comes the following grades of 1, 2 and 3. so it would be extra, first, second and third in that order.. Extra is the most expensive and can be judged by its ester content. But this can be manipulated. The Grades are arrived by fractionating the distillation process. Extra for example is derived say 2 hours after the distillation process, then one two and three follow in successional times. Complete Ylang-Ylang should be the un- interrupted water and steam distillation of Ylang Ylang flowers. It also could mean a combination of other varieties of Ylang flowers. every good wish, Janita Janita Haan Natural Perfume http://www.hayspace.co.uk --------------------------------- Sent from .
