Lavandin

About Lavandin

Lavandin is an aromatic note associated with the hybrid between true lavender and spike lavender. It shares lavender’s clean herbal identity but often feels sharper, more camphoraceous, more rustic, and more projecting.

Scent Profile

The profile is clean, herbal, camphoraceous, fresh, and slightly medicinal. It suggests dry stems, soap, cool air, aromatic fields, and crisp linen rather than only soft purple flowers.

Use in Perfumery

Lavandin works from the top into the heart with citrus, bergamot, lavender, geranium, musks, woods, fougere accords, rosemary, and mint. It gives structure, freshness, and an aromatic snap.

Did You Know?

The challenge is keeping the sharpness elegant. Citrus can brighten it, musk can soften the laundry-like side, and woods can make the herbal effect feel more refined. In fougere structures, lavandin can provide a crisp bridge between freshness and base. Tonka can add warmth, while mint can push the coolness further. Clary sage gives it a dry aromatic curve. Lavandin is often stronger and more camphor-like than fine lavender. That makes it useful when a formula needs lavender character with more lift and cleaner diffusion.
