Lavender 40/42 Essential Oil
Lavender has been treasured for centuries for its soft floral aroma and its connection to relaxation, sleep, meditation, skin care and everyday wellness rituals.
Essential7’s Lavender 40/42 Essential Oil is created by blending carefully selected lavender essential oils to maintain a dependable aroma from batch to batch. Unlike lavender fragrance oils or synthetically compounded substitutes, this product contains lavender essential oils only.
Why We Call It 40/42
The name 40/42 refers to the standardized balance of linalool and linalyl acetate, two of the primary constituents responsible for lavender’s familiar floral aroma.
The aroma of a single lavender crop can change with growing conditions, location and harvest. Blending selected lavender essential oils creates a consistent scent while preserving the floral, herbaceous and gently woody character people expect from lavender.
