The Sp staff are constantly striving to
bring you oils which are both
economical and of the highest quality.  
Our commitment to organic agriculture
and buying means we are able to list
many oils which are organic for near
the price of conventional oils.  Where
we cannnot buy economically we list
the conventional oil as an alternative.

Lavender Oil

Family:
Lamiaceae (Labiatae)

The latin botanical family name of the
plant source.

Synonyms:
TRUE LAVENDER; LAVENDER OIL
40/42%; LAVANDULA AUGUSTIFOLIA
OIL; LAVENDER OIL;

Other names, botanical, chemical
nomenclature or trade names that the
material may be known as.

Sources:
France, UK, Bulgaria, China

Main countries of origin

Method of production:
Lavender Oil is steam distilled from the
freshly cut flowering tops and stalks of
Lavandula Officinalis, a wild growing or
cultivated herb.

The method of production

Appearence:
Colorless to light straw liquid

The appearence of the material
("straw" is a light brown colour). Colour
may change for a number of reasons.
Some materials get darker, and others
lighter with age.

Odor Description:
Almost fruity sweet topnote, Fresh
herbaceous, Lavender, Herbal, Floral,
Sweet, overall cool but can have
slightly notes, a pleasant, balsamic
woody backnote

The odour of the material

Perfumery Uses:
Fougeres, Mens Types, Modifier in
Eau de Cologne, New Mown Hay;
Herbal; Tobacco notes; Amber;

Commonly used in these these
perfume type but not limited to these.

Flavour Uses:
Peach, toothpaste, cachous

Used in these Flavours. But be very
careful there are many qualities of
materials and you must check with the
manufacturer if this is really a "Flavour
grade"

Aromatherapy uses:
As aid to restful sleep, (particularly
fresh flowers packed into pillow) used
dilute in water as skin tonic in water,
stomach soother.

Ideas on the use in aromatherapy.
Note do not use internally without
proper consultation with a qualified
medical practitioner and ensuring that
the oil is pharamaceutical or flavour
grade

Blends Well With:
Pine Oils; Cognac; Clary Sage;
Hedione; Thyme Oil; Chamomile Oil;
Citrus oils particularly Bergamot;

These are notes this material seems to
blend well with and worth trying out.
But don't limit your imagination to only
these.

Analytical:
38/40%

The % quoted in Lavender Oil refers to
the ester content calculated as Linalyl
Acetate. In other materials it may refer
to the percent of active named
component.

Specific Gravity:
0.87500 - 0.88800 @ 25.00 C

Water is 1.00 so less than 1.00 will
float on water and more than 1 will
sink. We can also calculate how many
grams 1 cc will weigh. ie. 1 cc of
Lavender Oil weighs about 0.88
grams. In the perfumery business we
buy by wieght so 1 gram of Lavender
Oil will be 1/0.88 = 1.14 ccs. this
means that for every 1 Kilogram (1,000
grams) we get 1,140 ccs. Important for
checking how many bottles you can fill.

Refractive Index:
1.45900 - 1.46900 @ 20.00 C

This is the measurement of the way
that light is bent by liquids. Stand a
pencil in a glass of water and note how
the pencil appears to be bent as it
goes into the water. This helps to
check if the oil is pure but is not not
foolproof.

CAS.#:
8000-28-0

Chemical Abstract Series Number
helps to identify the exact material
referred to. You can find the books of
abstracts in a scientific library. There
are hundreds of volumes.

FEMA.#:
2622

Flavor and Extract Manufacturers
Association gives a reference number
to materials that are Generally
Recognised As Safe (GRAS). BUT you
must check that the grade you are
getting is flavour grade if you are
making flavours.

MP:
Melting Point: N/A

The temperature the material melts at.

BP:
Boiling Point: N/A

The temperature the material boils at.

FP:
Flash Point: 70 C

This indicates the temperature that the
material will "flash" when a flame is
present. Below about 57 usually
requires shipments to be marked
"Dangerous Goods". Ethanol (FP -18
C), Orange Oil and Rosemary Oil fall
into this category.

Soluble in:
95% Ethanol, DPG, DEP, White
Oil(Cloudy);

The oils will mix with these common
solvents. The percentage of Ethanol
indicates how much water is present
(in this case 5%). But check yourself
everytime as other materials in the
mixture will affect the solubility.
Solubility in White Oil will indicate its
suitability for candle making in this
case it will be OK for normal scented
candles but no good for transparent
gel candles as it forms a cloudy
mixture (this can be helped though with
other materials in the perfume)

Insoluble in:
Water

Does not mix with water

NAFTA H.#:
3301.23.0000

This is the harmonised code (almost
standard world-wide) for the Customs
and Excise department. It enables
them to quickly establish the import
duty and any restrictions on importing
the material.
