Lavandin

Lavandin is a fragrant note derived from a hybrid lavender plant, with a fresh, herbaceous scent profile that carries slightly floral and camphorous undertones. Its aroma is clean, crisp, and aromatic, adding a natural and invigorating quality to perfumes. Lavandin imparts a sharp, bright character and is often used as a top or middle note to create an energizing and refreshing composition. It pairs beautifully with citrus, floral, and woody notes, contributing to fragrances that are lively, modern, and full of freshness.

History & Production: Lavandin is a hybrid plant, a cross between lavender (Lavandula angustifolia) and spike lavender (Lavandula latifolia), primarily cultivated in France and other parts of Europe. The essential oil is extracted through steam distillation of the flowers, capturing its clean, fresh essence. Lavandin is often used in perfumery as a more cost-effective alternative to true lavender, offering a similar but more intense scent. It is valued for its ability to add a bright, fresh floral note that enhances the vibrancy and clarity of fragrances, evoking a sense of cleanliness and vitality.
