Botanical Name: Lavandula angustifolia

Main Constituents:
Linalool: 22 - 44%
Linalyl acetate: 20 - 38%
Camphor: Max 0.6%

Plant Part: Flowers

Origin: France

Processing Method: Steam Distillation

Description / Color / Consistency: A thin, clear, colourless to pale yellow liquid.

Aromatic Summary / Note / Strength of Aroma: A top note of strong aroma, Lavender Population has a rich floral scent that is somewhat fruitier, mellower, and less camphoraceous than Lavender 40/42, and it smells more like fresh lavender.

Blends With: Bay, Bergamot, Chamomile, Clary Sage, Geranium, Jasmine, Lemon, Mandarin, Orange, Palmarosa, Patchouli, Pine, Thyme, Rosemary, Rosewood, and Ylang-ylang.

Product Abstract: The Lavender plant is a woody evergreen shrub, up to 1 meter tall, with pale green, narrow linear leaves, and violet-blue flowers. The entire plant is covered with oil glands, which are in the star-shaped hairs that cover the plant. Lavender has been used since ancient times, and the Romans added lavender to their bath water, hence the name from the Latin lavare, 'to wash'. Differences in soil, altitude, and temperature, precipitation, and seasons contribute to subtle changes in the scent from one lot of Lavender to another.

Cautions: Dilute before use; for external use only. May cause skin irritation in some individuals; a skin test is recommended prior to use. Contact with eyes should be avoided.

Storage: It is recommended that oils packaged in metal containers (for safe shipping) be transferred into dark glass containers to maintain freshness and attain maximum shelf life.

I’m not a fan of lavender at ALL, but of all the lavenders, this one is the most bearable for me. Not exceedingly potent.

Ordered the 500 ml bottle and I’m not impressed. It doesn’t smell like lavender at all. This is the first time buying this one and I will admit I did based on reviews and the write up. I have bought lots of lavender essential oils from new directions I’m the last 5 years as I have a soap making business and this is the first time I have gotten one that did not smell of lavender.

Best smelling Lavender. It's not quite a pure "classic" lavender scent but it does have more complexity of smell-- it is smooth, floral, sweet and there's even notes of citrus in there.

This lavender, compared to the Lavender French, has more of a dried flower smell and is a bit sweeter. It is smoother and rounder and has less of the camphorous smell. This one is really nice.

I really enjoy this lavender scent, for sure one of my favourites. While it is a stronger smelling lavender, it is not as earthy smelling as the Bulgarian Lavender. You really only need to use a little. As an aside, I have to comment on the exceptional customer service that New Directions Aromatics provides. I once ordered the wrong size lids for glass jars I ordered and their warehouse staff noticed in the midst of picking many orders I am sure. The company contacted me to find out if I really wanted that size lid and rectified my error. I also had an issue with my order recently and they were unbelievable with their service. This is what exceptional customer service should look like, very impressed!

This is one strong-smelling lavender... Therapeutic values are probably equal, but I greatly prefer the Bulgarian, or even French, which are much less camphorous.

I love this essential oil. Very potent which is best for only using a few drops in my soaps. I like the classic vanilla and lavender scent for my melt and pour soaps.

This is another wonderful EO I got from ND! I burned my finger while cooking one day! After soaking my finger in cold water for 10 mins, I mixed this EO with Chamomile EO and rose hip oil all from ND and applied to the burn area which was red and painful! After applying 2 more times of this mixture, the burn area was not as red or painful and no blister! I continued for another 2 days and the burn mark and pain was gone! It's amazing how it worked!

Not quite what I was expecting. It's has a good strong scent that holds up really well in M&P soap. I found it a bit to earthy for what I was going for though. I was looking for something a bit sweeter.

I have been buying several of your products for years now I have not yet been disappointed in any of them. Both facial washes are perfect for my skin, I don,t have irritated and dry skin. Most of all the ingredients are simple and uncomplicated. My favourite essential oils are the Australian Eucalyptus oils and the French Lavender. I use them both in almost everythiing I do. I have used almost 30 essential oils all of great quality. Thanks for the great service and products

By far the best lavendar eo! I've used this one for years and keep a small bottle in the kitchen in case of burns or cuts; it heals wounds exceptionally well and no scarring. I've also used it to prevent mosquitoes from biting. Take a small bottle with me travelling overseas and mix it with a bit of vodka in a spray bottle to relieve sun burns and bug bites.

My favorite out of all the lavenders I've tried. I keep this one as my own 'personal lavender' and use the Moldova for the big batch projects. This one is just so sweet and lovely.

This has been one of my favourites for over 10 years. I decant it into a small bottle and keep it in my kitchen for scalds or burns. I've used it on sunburns as well. It takes the sting out of mosquito bites and just a drop under my nose before bedtime puts me to sleep in no time. I travel with a small bottle of it in my purse.

I purchased this lavender for its therapeutic properties. I am not a fan of floral scents, however the smell does dissipate after a few hours. I mix this EO in my body butter and the healing properties are fantastic!

I am new to aromatherapy and am currently studying for my Master of Aromatherapy. I chose this lavender as I had no idea of the differences between all of the types that you offer. So far, in the applications I have been using it we have had wonderful results. I am curious and will be trying your other types. For now though, we really love this one!

One of the great things about your company is that it is possible to try so many varieties of essential oils. This month I chose lavender population and mont blanc and both are fabulous! I especially appreciate that they are high on the therapeutic scale!

A staple in our first aid kit. I use it on cuts and scrapes, insect stings, etc. I use a drop or two on a cotton ball soaked in witch hazel as "boo-boo juice" for my daughter. Takes the sting out and calms her down in the process. I also use it in the bath, in a car diffuser for long drives, and in my all-purpose surface cleaner.
