| Lavender Oil / Eau de Toilette |
| Historical The aroma of lavender has wafted through human history. Lavender is one of the most popular medicinal herbs since ancient times, and the Greeks and Romans were fond of it in their bath water. In European folk medicine, it was regarded as a valuable wound herb. The glovers of Grasse in the Provence used the oil to scent their fashionable leather and were remarkably free of the plague. Lavender oil is undoubtably the most versatile and useful of all the essential oils, and no home should be without it. It is very effective in the treatment of burns, scalds and cuts, as well as being beneficial for skin conditions such as eczema and dermatitis. Lavender oil is distilled from the flowering tops of the lavender plants. |
