Lavender Essential Oil Bulgarian Steam Distilled 10ml

Soft, floral and gently sweet, this lavender essential oil brings the familiar scent of flowering lavender into a quiet daily ritual. It is steam distilled from the flowering tips of Lavandula angustifolia grown in Bulgaria, giving a clean aromatic oil for diffusers, oil burners, baths and carefully diluted body blends.

The scent in the room

• The first impression is fresh and floral, with a light sweetness rather than a heavy perfume feel.
• Its slightly fruity edge keeps the lavender scent bright, especially when warmed in an oil burner.
• A few drops in a diffuser gives a softer background aroma for reading, stretching or evening stillness.
• Blended with a carrier oil, it becomes a simple scented oil for slow massage or post-bath care.
• The small amber-coloured bottle and black ribbed cap keep it practical for a shelf, drawer or travel wash bag.

Bulgarian lavender, steam distilled

This oil comes from Lavandula angustifolia, using the flowering tips of the plant. Steam distillation draws the volatile aromatic compounds from the lavender without using a perfume base, leaving the scent clear, botanical and recognisably lavender.

Bulgarian lavender is valued in perfumery for its fresh, sweet floral character. Here, that character feels simple and direct: a floral oil for fragrance, blending and home aroma rather than a complicated scent composition.

How to use it with care

Use a few drops in an oil burner or diffuser, following the guidance for your device. For skin use, dilute it in a carrier oil such as almond, grapeseed, jojoba or avocado oil, and patch test before wider use.

For a bath, blend the oil with a suitable carrier before adding it to the water, so it disperses more evenly. Keep essential oils out of reach of children and pets, and seek professional guidance before using during pregnancy, with young children, or for any health-related purpose.

Lavender in daily ritual

The name lavender is often linked to the Latin lavare, meaning ‘to wash’, a quiet clue to its long association with bathing, linen, fragrance and domestic care. Across Europe, lavender has been used in scented cupboards, perfumery and household rituals for centuries. In modern aromatherapy practice, it remains one of the most familiar floral oils, often chosen for moments when a space needs to feel softer, cleaner and more settled, without making any promise beyond scent and atmosphere.

Common questions

Can I blend this lavender essential oil with other oils?
Yes. Lavender is often blended with citrus, herbaceous, woody and resinous oils because its floral character sits comfortably in the middle of a blend.

Can I apply it directly to skin?
No. Essential oils should be diluted in a suitable carrier oil before skin use, followed by a patch test.

Is it suitable for use around pets?
Use caution. Many essential oils can be unsafe for cats, dogs and other animals, so keep the bottle and vapour away from pets and ask a vet if unsure.
