It has an almost fruity-sweet top note, with a pleasant balsamic-woody undertone that becomes more flowery as it evolves on the skin. *(CO = Certified Organic)

The variety is small and produces less oil. I love it. Lavender also does wonders for burns and bites. It's probably the most popular oil in fresh, sweet, herbal, floral aromatherapy blends and the best selling single note.

It marries well with bergamot and other citrus oils, clove, oakmoss, patchouli, rosemary, clary sage, and pine needle oil. Many aromatherapists feel it enhances or builds a therapeutic bridge in almost any blend. It is used in many colognes and perfumes including but not limited to citrus and floral waters, fougeres*, chypres*, ambres*, and even many non-floral perfume types.
