Lavender Absolute

Buy Lavender Absolute

Lavender Absolute is a truly exceptional natural essence derived from the delicate blossoms of the Lavandula angustifolia plant. Unlike steam-distilled lavender essential oil, our lavender absolute is extracted using a solvent extraction method, capturing the full spectrum of the plant's aromatic molecules, including the heavier, more complex compounds that contribute to its rich, long-lasting scent. This results in an oil with a deeper, sweeter, and more floral aroma than lavender essential oil, making it a prized ingredient in perfumery, aromatherapy, and skincare.

Our Lavender Absolute is sourced from the finest lavender fields, where the flowers are carefully harvested at their peak bloom to ensure the highest quality oil. The extraction process is meticulously carried out to preserve the delicate balance of the plant's natural constituents, resulting in a pure and potent oil that is free from any synthetic additives or fillers.
