Profile

Lavender is truly the Mother of all Essential Oils. Lanvandula comes from the Latin word lavare, meaning ‘to wash.’  Mailhebiau compares Lavender to Mother Theresa: “Timeless, always even-tempered, with unfailing gentleness and devotion. Lanvandula cares for and calms, listens to and remedies a thousand ills. She takes care of children, adults and elderly, animals, plants, the earth & sky. She looks after everyone with equal love…” (Mailhebiau P. Portraits in Oils. The C.W. Daniel Company Limited, Great Britain, 1995) 

Lavandula angustifolia is an evergreen, woody shrub, that grows to around three feet. It has arrow, slender leaves with various shades of purple to blue colored flowers. The evergreen grows best at 2,200 to 4,000 ft altitude. Lavender grown and distilled at a higher altitude has a reputation of being the best quality. The entire plant is highly aromatic. Its essential oil is obtained by distillation from the flower spikes. Lavender Essential Oil is a colorless or pale-yellow liquid of a sweet, floral, herbaceous, refreshing odor, with a pleasant, balsamic-woody undertone.  

Lavender Bulgarian is like the French Alpine in that it is also very high on esters such as linalyl acetate. Even though France is thought to be the home of Lavender, very good quality true L. angustifolia has been produced in Bulgaria for many decades. Lavender oil is probably the best known of all the essential oils. 

No home is complete without a bottle of Lavender. This is most likely due to the number of conditions that Lavender is thought to assist, along with being an oil that is safe to use on children, adults, and the elderly alike. Lavender is appreciated for its balancing, calming and soothing characteristics.  It is thought by many to be advantageous for relieving stress, tension, and irritability.
