What is your favorite lavender oil and where do you buy it? I bought some and don't like it very well. Asking you all will cut my learning ($$$) curve by a lot!

Thanks!
 
I adore high altitude french, but it's too expensive for soap.
Bulgarian from New Directions Aromatics or Essential Oils University is my poison.

But frankly, lavender EO doesn't really smell like you think it does...
 
It doesn't smell like you think? Really, that must have been it. I think I will try another kind and see if I still feel the same way. Thanks for the advice!

I just got a sample of Lavender Herb from BB and it smells wonderful. I can't wait to see how it holds up in soap!

I bought a four oz bottle and for my free sample, I got the Lavender Herb so now I have five oz...lol. I am planning a green and purple swirl...possibly today :p

this was my experience, after being exposed to glade/febreze "lavender" scents!
 
Thank you everyone! A couple of questions based on your feedback:

1. What is the difference between "lavanden (Abrailis)" and "lavanden (Grosso)"?
2. Those who use lavanden, do you label it lavender for the scent or do you lable it lavanden?
