Lavender or lavender

We always say lavender, but there are several varieties of lavender.

  • Lavandula angustifolia ou officinalis : we surname real lavender, lavender of the alps, fine lavender,.
    Rare and expensive since it grows only in altitude, it is the best lavender for its perfume and it is the one that has the most pronounced calming effect
  • Lavandula latifolia or spica : Commonly called aspic lavender
    Its culture is simpler since it grows easily in the valleys (0 and 600 m) but its fragrance is less subtle than the true lavender but more effective against burns and wasps .
  • Lavandula stoechas : We find it under the names lavender stechas or butterfly lavender
    Very decorative in the gardens. if these properties can be interesting in aromatherapy, its odor of camphor makes it unusable in perfumery but useful to fight infections.
  • There are still many other lavender varieties as Lavandula viridis, lavandula pinnata, lavandula lanata, lavandula dentata, .but they are not used in aromatherapy.
  • Lavandula intermedia or hybrida : She no longer bears the name lavender but lavandin

Is found in the essential oil of lavender real most of the biochemical components found in lavender super: (Z)-beta-ocines, (E)-beta-ocines, myrcene, limonene, alpha-pinene, camphenene, beta-pinene, linalbéol, bornol, terpinene-4-ol, alpha-terpineol, in the lavender, for example, there is more linalol, cineol and camphor than in the true lavender but less terpinene-4-ol or lavandulyle acetate.
So if you look for an essential oil close to the true lavender but at a reasonable price turn to the super lavender.
