About Sampangi Grafted (Simhachalam)
The essential oil is used in aromatherapy. It is
believed to relieve high blood pressure, normalize sebum secretion for skin
problems, and is considered to be an aphrodisiac. According to Margaret Mead,
it was used as such by South Pacific natives such as the Samoan Islanders where
she did much of her research. The oil from ylang-ylang is widely used in
perfumery for oriental or floral themed perfumes (such as Chanel No. 5).
Ylang-ylang blends well with most floral, fruit and wood scents. In Indonesia,
ylang-ylang flowers are spread on the bed of newlywed couples. In the
Philippines, its flowers, together with the flowers of the sampaguita, are
strung into a necklace (lei) and worn by women and used to adorn religious images.
Ylang-ylang's essential oil makes up 29% of the Comoros' annual export (1998).
