Lavender 40/42 Essential Oil is a standardized blend of Lavender essential oil typically derived from Lavandula angustifolia oil and Lavandula intermedia, designed to offer a consistent aroma profile ideal for high-volume formulations. Sourced primarily from France and the USA, this oil is steam-distilled and then expertly blended to maintain a balanced ratio of linalool and linalyl acetate—the primary aromatic compounds responsible for its widely recognized scent.
With its sweet, floral, and herbaceous aroma, Lavender 40/42 Oil is a cornerstone fragrance ingredient in personal care, home fragrance, pet care, and industrial applications. Preferred by manufacturers for its dependable scent profile and compatibility across a range of base formulations, this oil streamlines batch consistency, supply planning, and product development.
Ideal for contract manufacturers, private label brands, and large-scale formulators, Lavender 40/42 Essential Oil is available in HBNO bulk volumes with supply assurance and quality controls suited for global distribution.
