Organic Lavandin - Essential Oil

Lavandin is obtained in nature, by crossing a plant of true lavender - Lavandula Angustifolia, Mill . - and a plant of spike lavender - Lavandula Latifolia -.

A naturally sterile hybrid, it is then propagated by cuttings. It expresses the freshness of its strongly camphoraceous fragrance, like that of spike lavender.

Several subspecies exist at the Lacontal Farm. Flowering later than common lavender, we harvest it at the end of July.

The chosen packaging preserves the quality of the essential oil and facilitates its use.

The bottles are opaque to protect the essential oil from light. Glass is preferred for small containers, while aluminum and HDPE are used for larger ones to prevent breakage.

Bottles equipped with a dropper allow for universal use. The spray and roll-on applicator, also sold individually, fit bottles from 5 to 100 ml.

Small containers are easy to take with us on the go. Larger containers are also useful for refilling smaller ones or taking advantage of bulk buying.

From the very beginning, we chose to cultivate our lavender naturally, without any pesticides. Our essential oils are certified organic (AB). Distillation, carried out on-site at the farm, is essential: we adapt as closely as possible to the weather conditions and the ripeness of the lavender to guarantee optimal quality.

Chromatographic analysis measures the content of constituents naturally present in the essential oil (Linalool, Lynalyl acetate...).

We know the exact quality of our essential oil for each vintage. These analyses are carried out and guaranteed by a specialized laboratory.
