Lavender (Lavandula angustifoliais) is one of the most versatile essential oils you can find in nature. This oil is distilled (mainly steam distillation)​ from the flowers that grow on lavender, which is an evergreen shrub that produces clusters of beautiful, scented flowers above green foliage. The fragrance is very relaxing and calming to the body and mind.

Lavender has been used for thousands of years for perfumery, bathing and cooking. 

High-quality lavender oil has a sweet, floral, herbaceous, and slightly woody scent. lavender oil blends well with many other essential oils to create a synergy of blends.

Lavender oil benefits your body and mind in many ways:

• reduces anxiety and emotional stress
