Description

Spike lavender’s primary chemical constituents are camphor and 1,8 cineole, making its therapeutic actions different than true lavender. It can increase blood flow when applied topically, and therefore effective when dealing with muscle aches and general discomfort.  While its floral aroma resembles lavender’s, it’s more energizing, camphor-like, and sharp. It can purify skin and calm irritation, too. AroMed’s certified organic spike lavender essential oil is steam distilled from blossoms harvested from fields in rural Spain.
