Discover the quintessential, softly floral elegance of pure English Lavender Essential Oil, steam distilled from the flowering tips of Lavandula Angustifolia grown and distilled in England. Soft, sweet and beautifully refined — with a clean, floral warmth, a gentle, slightly herbaceous freshness and a smooth, powdery, honeyed depth — English Lavender is widely regarded as the finest and most aromatically complex expression of Lavender Essential Oil in the world.
Lavandula Angustifolia — True Lavender or Fine Lavender — is the most prized of all Lavender species, producing an oil of exceptional softness, complexity and aromatic refinement. Grown at altitude in the cool, temperate climate of England, it develops a distinctively gentle, sweet and beautifully balanced aromatic profile — softer, more floral and more complex than Lavandin or spike lavender varieties, with a characteristic smoothness and depth that has made it the benchmark expression of Lavender in aromatherapy and natural perfumery for centuries.
England has a long and deeply rooted Lavender heritage — Lavender has been cultivated in English gardens since at least the 16th century, when it was a staple of the Tudor physic garden and a prized ingredient in Elizabethan perfumery and household practice. The famous Lavender fields of Surrey and Norfolk became centres of English Lavender production in the 18th and 19th centuries, supplying the great London perfumers of the era — and the phrase ‘English Lavender’ became synonymous with the finest, most refined and most aromatically distinguished Lavender in the world. Queen Victoria was famously devoted to English Lavender — using it to scent her linens, her rooms and her personal care products, and granting a Royal Warrant to the Yardley Lavender brand that endures to this day.
Steam distilled from the flowering tips — the most aromatically concentrated part of the plant, harvested at the peak of bloom — this is a truly premium expression of English Lavender, capturing the full, nuanced aromatic complexity of the flower at its finest. With its soft, timeless and deeply refined aromatic character, English Lavender Essential Oil is the most versatile, universally beloved and enduringly iconic essential oil in the world — an indispensable cornerstone of any aromatherapy collection. This 50ml size is ideal for professional formulators, therapists and those who incorporate English Lavender regularly into their practice or product making.
