Description
Lavender 40/42 Blendable Essential Oil
Soft, Floral, & Herbaceous
Wrap your formula in the unmistakable embrace of true, classic lavender. This single-note Essential Oil delivers a balanced, soothing wave of clean florals layered with subtle herbal-camphoraceous warmth. Standardized to a precise 40% linalool and 42% linalyl acetate ratio, this blendable acts as the dependable, harmonizing heart of countless custom creations — calming sharp top notes, rounding heavy bases, and bringing a quiet, restorative elegance to every drop.
The Anatomy of a Blend
Master the art of formulation by understanding the volatility and evaporation rates of your ingredients.
Top Notes
The bright, volatile introduction to your product. These are the lightest molecules that provide the immediate first impression, but evaporate the quickest. Use them to create an uplifting, sharp opening.
Middle Notes
The well-rounded core of your fragrance. As the top notes fade, the heart notes emerge to mask any sharp edges. They make up the main body of the blend and drive the overall theme of the scent.
Base Notes
The deep, heavy finish. These large, slow-evaporating molecules linger on the skin long after application. They act as a fixative, anchoring the top and middle notes to prevent them from fading too quickly.
Pyramid Placement
In custom formulation, Lavender 40/42 serves as the quintessential Middle Note (The Heart). Its standardized linalool/linalyl acetate profile makes it the most reliable bridge in your kit — softening volatile citrus top notes, taming sharp herbal greens, and lending floral lift to woody or musky base notes. Whenever a blend feels disjointed, lavender is the diplomat that pulls it together.
