What It Does

This is a synergistic blend of steam-distilled lavender oil from Lavandula angustifolia flowers and cold-pressed bergamot oil from Citrus aurantium bergamia fruit peel. The combination creates a sophisticated floral-citrus fragrance profile while providing complementary therapeutic benefits—lavender's calming, skin-soothing properties paired with bergamot's uplifting, clarifying effects. Formulators choose this blend for its balanced aromatic character and the natural antimicrobial and antioxidant properties both oils contribute, though bergamot's bergapten content requires consideration for sun-exposure products due to potential photosensitivity.
