This time of year, we always begin to crave the release of something fresh and floral. Something elegant in its simplicity, but still useful, indulgent, and effective. Maybe it’s down to our need for a small treat after the long last gasps of winter, a pick-me-up that says “you did it”. Whatever the case, as luck would have it, we recently discovered an extra special lavender absolute from the vast, sun-drenched fields of France.
Lavender absolute is very different from ordinary steam-distilled lavender essential oil. Rather than using heat, the fragrant flower heads are first transformed into a wax known as a concrete, preserving the delicate aromatic compounds that can be altered or lost in a speedy distillation. The waxes are then gently removed, leaving behind a mesmerizing deep blue-green material with extraordinary depth. The scent has a fuller form – softer, more nuanced and herbaceous, and closer to the scent of the whole living plant.
It is a beautifully fresh and light all natural perfume solid that can second as an antioxidant-rich under eye salve, a lip and face balm, or spot applied anywhere that there is a blemish or where skin needs a little extra love.
