Sourced from Lavandula angustifolia cultivated across the Caucasus region of Azerbaijan, this essential oil reflects a unique intersection of continental climate and mineral-rich soils. The flowering tops are harvested during peak bloom and steam distilled to preserve their volatile composition. The oil is characterized by a balanced presence of linalool and linalyl acetate, supported by noticeable traces of camphor and 1,8-cineole, giving it a slightly greener and more herbaceous edge compared to Bulgarian grades. The opening is fresh and aromatic with a subtle camphoraceous lift, gradually evolving into a clean floral heart with gentle herbal undertones. While the Kashmiri variant is sourced from the flowering tops grown in the Kashmir Valley at elevations above 1,500 meters, this essential oil reflects the influence of cooler climates on aromatic development. The plants are harvested at peak bloom and steam distilled to preserve their delicate volatile profile. The oil is rich in linalool with moderate linalyl acetate and reduced camphor, resulting in a softer, more refined character. The opening is gently floral and diffusive, with subtle herbal undertones and minimal sharpness. In perfumery, lavender functions as a refined aromatic heart note, offering smooth integration into fougère, floral, and wellness-driven accords.
