Product Information
Lavender 40/42 Essential Oil, steam-distilled from the flowering tops of the Lavandula angustifolia plant, is prized for its fresh, sweet, and herbaceous aroma. Known for its calming, soothing, and balancing properties, this oil is widely used in aromatherapy to promote relaxation, emotional wellbeing, and restful sleep. When diluted, Lavender 40/42 Oil may help support healthy skin, soothe minor irritations, and provide a comforting sensation. Its versatile, gentle fragrance makes it a staple in diffusers, massage blends, skincare products, and home fragrance creations.
What is the difference between Lavender essential oil and Lavender 40/42?
Lavender 40/42 is the gold standard for those who require a perfectly balanced and consistent floral aroma. The name refers to the natural standardisation of its two primary scent components: 40% Linalool and 42% Linalyl Acetate. While single-origin lavender oils can vary significantly in scent from year to year based on soil and weather conditions, our 40/42 blend is carefully crafted to ensure a reliable, sweet, and herbaceous fragrance in every single bottle. While still a natural product, it offers a cleaner, more "classic" lavender scent profile without the camphorous or earthy undertones sometimes found in wild varieties.
