Lavender Essential Oil is distilled from the leaves and flowering tops of the Lavandula angustifolia plant. A perennial, bushy shrub with silvery, grey or green linear leaves and purple, violet or blue spiky flowers.
Our variety of Lavender Essential Oil comes from our partners in Bulgaria. Bulgarian Lavender Essential Oil is rightfully regarded as one of the finest Lavenders. An ideal climate of warm summers and plentiful rain during the winter and free draining soil leads to higher natural levels of linalool, the key natural component of quality Lavender.

I have been buy Naturallythinking Essential oils for a little over 15 years and have always found them excellent quality.
The odd occasion I have shopped elsewhere, namely Holland and Barrett I have regretted it, the quality elsewhere does not live up to the Naturallythinking standard.
The Lavender is an excellent example, compare a bottle of shop bought Lavender with Naturallythinking Lavender and you will never think of trying another Lavender again. Keep up the great work sourcing wonderful oils.
