Lavender, English.
English lavender, ethically farmed in Great Britain: crisp, fresh and far less floral than Mailette, with a soft spicy note, made for the morning shower rather than the evening.

About this product
Cold water, a bar of soap, a window cracked to the morning air. English lavender belongs to the start of the day: crisp, fresh, the traditional scent of lavender you have known for years, with almost a softly spicy note and little of the sweet floral of its French cousins.
It is steam-distilled in Great Britain from the flowering tops of ethically farmed Lavandula angustifolia. Its chemistry explains its character: a relatively high level of linalool, higher even than the high-altitude lavenders, and less linalyl acetate than any of the French oils. That makes it a poor choice as an evening relaxant, and a fine one for waking up.
