          Lavandin Grosso is a hybrid of True Lavender and Lavender Spike. It is a very hearty species which produces double the amount of oil of True Lavender and is well suited for large scale production at lower cost.
          Lavandin does not have as nice of relaxation qualities of Lavender but its clean floral scent and low cost make it a popular essential oil especially among soap makers. It is more similar to Lavender Spike in use. It’s useful in respiratory burner and vapor blends, disinfecting and deodorizing, acne, hair tonics and is an even more effective insect repellent. As a general rule, we like Lavandin in soaps, shampoos, deodorizers, disinfectants, daytime air fresheners and we like True Lavenders for full body massage, to condition the face and skin and for night time relaxation formulas.
           We selected this product because it is not as sharp and camphorous as some other Lavandin Grosso samples we have tried. We are pleased to be able to find and share this quality.

Note: Most essential oils cannot be taken internally, but even when they can, essential oils are highly concentrated and require dilution, special training and caution that Aroma & More does not yet provide. You can never drink any essential oils at 100% strength or diluted in water-based liquids.

It is up to the customer to determine if the product is right for their intended purpose. Special consideration should be made before applying essential oils to pregnant women, children or the elderly. If under a doctor's care, please consult the physician before using essential oils. If applying to skin essential oils must be diluted correctly and Aroma & More recommends testing on a small area of skin to check for reaction before attempting a full body massage.
