Guest guest Posted April 27, 2012 Report Share Posted April 27, 2012 Hi all Does anyone know if you can ever get Seville lavender as an essential oil or CO2, or is it only produced as an absolute? If it's only produced as an absolute, what's the reason for that? Many thanks for any info! Best wishes Johanna NZ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seville absolute as part of my Module 1 kit for my students (also for sale to the general public). It became hard to get great quality oil, so I eliminated it from my kits. When I first sourced it, from a very reputable dealer, I was sent the Eo and the abs to test. They smelled almost identical, but the EO had no lasting power. It smelled like paper after five minutes, so I went with the absolute.
