A fashionable obsolete

Born in the Mediterranean basin, lavender was imported by the Romans to Provence, where it is still cultivated today. The smell of the blue flower and its hybrid, lavandin, has always been synonymous with cleanliness and soothing freshness. Transformed into essential oil or absolute, these two species offer perfumers a wide variety of olfactory profiles: if lavandin is more camphorous, lavender has more floral and powdery notes. Discover each facet of this Provençal emblem: botany, history, arts, gastronomy, agriculture, chemistry, without forgetting of course perfumes and perfumers.
