Spike Lavender Organic Essential Oil 0.25 Oz

Spike lavender (Lavandula latifolia) essential oil has a higher content of cineole and camphor than traditional lavender, contributing to its purifying power. From room sprays and diffusions to chest balms and sauna blends, spike lavender soothes and cleanses.   

The spike lavender plant is tall and somewhat less hardy than other species of lavender. It grows well at the lower elevations and warmer climates of Spain and Portugal. Aura Cacia Organic Spike Lavender Essential Oil comes from Spain. The oil is distilled by steam distillation.

Spike lavender has a higher content of camphor and cineole than traditional lavender. The aroma is camphoraceous and invigorating.

Spike lavender essential oil is almost like a blend of eucalyptus, rosemary and lavender in regards to aroma and properties. While it’s great throughout the year, its warming capacity makes it especially good for wintertime diffusions, massage blends, steam inhalations, balms, salves and sauna blends. A few drops can be added to cold care ointments to supplement their effectiveness.

Spike lavender blends well with lavender, rosemary, eucalyptus, frankincense, pine and juniper.
