OLFACTORY DESCRIPTION
True Lavender Essential Oil presents itself to us with force on a generous but unified aromatic and herbaceous note, very identifiable. Fruity, resinous and tea-like accents are concentrated in a vigorous heart that recalls the warmth of the summer air and its secrets.
It does not, however, give up its silky, airy floral facet to such robustness and, finally, elegantly affixes its country and woody signature.
