    Product Overview

    Our gorgeous Lavender Absolute from France is the ultimate Lavender for use in natural perfumery. It is smooth, suave, and luscious and most closely resembles the fresh botanical material, with a coumarin-like sweetness that captures the spirit of those iconic mounds of purple Lavender populating the French countryside. This is a perfumery must-have and a unanimous favorite of Eden’s staff!

    Lavender has been an integral part of fine fragrances for centuries, particularly citrus colognes. Solvent extracted Lavender Absolute is a middle note that is deeper and sweeter but less floral than Lavender essential oil, however the two together can form a very pleasant combination; it can also be used as a modifier to help mask unpleasant aromas of oils that are used in perfumery formulas. It blends well with citrus oils, especially Bergamot, herbaceous oils like Clary Sage, Geranium, and Rosemary, grasses like Flouve and Hay, spices, needle oils, florals, and classic base notes like Patchouli, Labdanum, and Oakmoss.

    Lavandula angustifolia is the true Lavender, as opposed to Spike Lavender (L. latifolia) or the hybrid Lavandins. It is produced throughout the world, although France is considered the premier growing region, and is the source of our best-selling Lavender essential oils: High Elevation, France - Organic, Maillette, and Wild. It takes approximately 130 kilos of Lavender flowers to make 1 kilo of Lavender Absolute.[1]

    Lowdown on Lavender – Which One Should I Buy?

    There’s nothing quite like standing in a Lavender field at the height of bloom. The summer sun sits high in the sky, bees drift lazily between blossoms, endless rows of violet stretch across gently sloping hills, and the air is saturated with the unmistakable scent of sweet floral herbaceousness.
