And how many do you have? > _____ I have LOTS of Lavender, since I came to perfumery via aromatherapy, and we also work with Lavender medicinally. My favourites: -high altitude type from France, very sharp and clean, with an almost lemony note. -Lavender seville absolute, very green, bitter-sweet, reminds me of the smell of absinthe -Lavender absolute from Mandy, more sweet, hay & tobacco notes -Lavender mailette oil I just got, sweet and light, not the sharp clean notes, but more like honey I also have some Lavender concrete, but I haven't explored it yet. I love that Lavender can be at all levels of a perfume, in concrete, absolute, or oil, such a balanced plant! -leavesofjoy / Micah www.al-kemi.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
