  1. After watching Gary Young explain in the video above how critical it is to harvest the Ylang Ylang flower at just the right stage of maturity, watch this video to see how little thought goes into harvest green flowers for the rest of the essential oil industry and, ultimately, for perfumes and fragrances where they are content using chemicals as poor counterfeits of natural substances.
