Our
Spike Lavender Essential Oil, produced from flowers growing in France, is
a sharper, more camphorus cousin to 'True' Lavender. Native to the mountainous regions of the Mediterranean, it
appears as a cross between Lavender and Sage - and in fact, that is a close description of its aroma. If you are using Lavender for aromatic purposes - in a diffuser or otherwise, try the highland or wild varieties. Spike Lavender is best suited to other aromatherapy applications such as an anti-septic in daily-use skin blends and other topical uses.
