How it behaves

Note tendency
Base
Descriptors

A sharp, camphoraceous lavender — brighter and more penetrating than true lavender, with a strong herbaceous-aromatic top and a cleaner, slightly medicinal edge. Dries down to a soft floral-woody herbal note with less sweetness and finesse than fine lavender.AI · claude-opus-4-7

Appearance

Lavandin Oil is a pale yellow to almost colorless liquid which can be somewhat turbid and brownish after shipment in galvanized drums.

Odor

The odor is strongly herbaceous with a very fresh camphene-cineole-like topnote which should not be distinctly camphoraceous. The rich, woody-herbaceous notes of the body components will usually become predominant within the first 60 seconds on a perfume blotter.

Uses in perfumery

Lavandin Oil is used for its fresh, refreshing notes, and is often used in very high concentration in the perfume formula. For detergent perfumes, liquid cleaners, dishwasher liquids, etc., this oil gives excellent results and does not need strong fixation. In soap perfumes, a good fixation of the lavandin oil is necessary, as well as in hair preparations.
