Lavandin Super EO (Robertet)

Lavandin Super offers a fresh, aromatic scent with a distinct lavender-like character, yet brighter and more herbal than true lavender.

It opens with a crisp, camphoraceous freshness, followed by clean floral and green undertones.

The scent is invigorating, clear, and slightly rustic—perfect for fougère, spa, and aromatic blends.
