Why We Love LAVENDER

Our customers LOVE lavender. They would buy any lavender-based fragrance so their homes can smell like a spa.

What’s so great about lavender? Let’s see…

The Merriam-Webster dictionary states:

Main Entry: lav·en·der

Pronunciation: \ˈla-vən-dər\

Etymology: Middle English lavendre, from Anglo-French, from Medieval Latin lavandula

Date: 13th century

a Mediterranean mint (Lavandula angustifolia syn. L. officinalis) widely cultivated for its narrow aromatic leaves and spikes of lilac-purple flowers which are dried and used in sachets and from which is extracted an aromatic oil used chiefly in perfumery

Uses of lavender are aplenty: aromatic, medicinal, cleansing, and even flavouring your dishes!

Lavender essential oil is the mother of all oils, a caring nurturing oil that has many uses. Of all the oils, this is the most versatile and essential in a first aid kit. It is useful for treating nervous disorders including depression, migraines and insomnia. Its antiseptic properties make it ideal for treating coughs, colds, flu as well as burns and ulcers. Lavender encourages compassion, emotional balance, comfort and security. (I like this!)
