Lavender's aroma is floral, herbaceous, light with woody undertones. Its unique aroma has a calming effect on the user. Soothes the spirit, relieves anger, could be valuable in manic-depressive cases.
The numbers in Lavender 40/42 indicate the linalyl acetate content; in this case, they indicate the product contains 40%-42% of linalyl acetate. Lavender 40/42 is generally a blend of various lavenders in order to get a consistent scent from batch to batch, with processors adding linalyl acetate to cover the smell of camphor or borneol components of a given lavender.
Most soapers seem to prefer Lavender 40/42 because it smells the way they believe lavender should smell and it's fairly inexpensive......about half the price of other, more expensive lavenders. This is our best selling essential oil for toiletries.
Keeps insects away. Blends well with bergamot, chamomile, citronella, lemon, and pine. Flash point: 156F, OK to ship via air or ocean.

The ideal Lavender, 2.23.2012

Reviewer: Meghan Koziol (Eagle River, AK)

We love this Lavender! It has the perfect blend of sweet floral and just the slightest "bite" of camphor to it. Even people who say they don't like Lavender LOVE our soaps made with it. It handles high heat exceptionally well, and blends with just about everything.

Reviewer: Monica Fuller (Reed city, MI)

I have been making soap for 8 years and this Lavender essential oil is THE BEST I have found. I wear it on my body as perfume, I put it in my kids baths and I use it in soaps, lotions and body sprays. I can't get enough of it!! Thank you Camden Grey for taking the time and caring about the quality of your products.

Strong in a Good Way! , 11.22.2011

Reviewer: Renee Brathwaite (Fort Washington, MD)

The oil that I received has a very strong scent which I wasn't crazy about at first sniff. However, I was pleasantly surprised and found that it mixed well with salts and soaps. The scent holds well and also mixes well when used sparingly in facial masks.

I get so many complements on my soap when I use this Lavender 40/42. I use dried lavender petals in the soap and can't keep it in my shop! One of the favorites! THANK YOU!
