Description
Lavender Bulgarian Essential Oil has a soft floral aroma with green herb, pale sweetness, dry stem, and a clean lavender finish. It is recognisably classic lavender, but usually smoother and less camphoraceous than lavandin types.
The first impression is fresh, floral, and herbaceous. With time, the sharper green edge softens into a rounder floral trace that works well in soaps, creams, lotions, body oils, bath blends, diffusers, linen sprays, natural perfumes, and gentle botanical formulas. It can soften citrus, geranium, clary sage, cedarwood, frankincense, chamomile, and mint.
Bulgarian Lavender works best when it stays light and spacious. Used lightly, it leaves a familiar floral-herbal residue. Used heavily, it can become powdery, soapy, sleepy, or too familiar.
Essential oils can be applied topically once diluted with a carrier oil. They are widely used in cosmetic goods and handmade crafts.
