Lavender essential oils come from a variety of species, each offering its own unique aromatic profile and therapeutic benefits. From the classic Lavandula angustifolia, known for its calming and soothing properties, to the more robust Lavandula latifolia, which provides respiratory support, the diversity within the lavender family is vast. Lavandin, a hybrid of true lavender, offers a refreshing, invigorating scent, while Cotton Lavender, which isn't a true Lavender, is known for its vibrant yellow flowers, adds a distinctively herbal and slightly camphorous note. Furthermore, where these species are grown will also impact the essential oil, Tasmanian Lavender being a classic example. Together, these oils provide a rich palette for both wellness and aromatic experiences and this episode explores the similarities and the differences of the Lavender family.
