About Bulgarian Lavender

Our Bulgarian lavender is grown under very particular conditions in the foothills of the Balkan Mountains, in areas above 1,000 meters of altitude, where different varieties of the plant grow side by side, both cultivated and wild. That setting gives the oil a lighter aromatic profile that is very pleasant for everyday use.

It is usually more affordable than so called French lavender, mostly because of market factors, and it is still an excellent choice for anyone who wants quality plus frequent use.
