Recipes: Exotic Island Potpourri
A fun way to use ylang ylang is as a scent for potpourri. Mix the following ingredients in a covered glass jar:
20 drops ylang ylang essential oil
20 drops mandarin orange essential oil
15 drops cassia essential oil
4 drops vetiver essential oil
1 cup dried orange or lemon peel
1 cup bay leaves
1 cup whole allspice
1 cup cinnamon sticks
Keep covered for three weeks, shaking the contents periodically to distribute the aroma. Display the potpourri in a decorative container. Sprinkle on more essential oils to renew the fragrance as needed.
