What is Lavandin Essential Oil?

Lavandin Essential Oil relieves muscles and helps you breathe freely again. The aroma is calming, but also stimulating and refreshing, making it a great alternative to Lavender Oil.

Lavandin (lavendula hybrida) is a cross between true lavender (lavandula officinalis) and spike lavender (lavandula spica). Lavandin Essential Oil is obtained through steam distillation of the flower tops of the plant.

Benefits

Relieves muscles

Just like true Lavender, Lavandin has soothing, calming properties. But unlike lavender, Lavandin is also mildly stimulating, thanks to the high amount of camphor in Lavandin. This makes Lavandin Essential Oil a beautiful ingredient to incorporate into a massage oil for muscles, where it supports circulation and warms the muscles.

Breathe freely

The high camphor content in Lavandin makes this essential oil also ideal to incorporate into diffuser blends for healthy airways. Or process the oil into a balm with oils like Thyme and Anise and massage into the chest area to breathe with relief again.

Refreshing aroma

The scent of Lavandin Essential Oil is sharper and fresher than that of its lavender-like brothers and sisters. This makes Lavandin a delightful fragrance to use in DIY soap, shampoo, perfume or other homemade care products. Or put a few drops on a cotton handkerchief and place this in your wardrobe or between your bedding.

How do you use it?

Use Lavandin Essential Oil as an ingredient in DIY care products or diffuse 3 drops in your aroma diffuser for a refreshing scent in the house.

Through the laundry

Try adding a few drops of Lavandin Essential Oil with your favorite detergent to the washing machine. Your laundry has never smelled so fresh!

What makes it so special?

Lavandin Essential Oil is rich in linalool and linalyl acetate which gives it a wonderfully relaxing, mildly stimulating aroma. The scent is sweet, floral and lavender-like, but sharper and fresher than lavender, making the oil more pleasant to diffuse during the day. You can save your Lavender Oil for the evening.
