The aroma of lavender has wafted through human history. It was used in ancient Egyptian perfumes and incense, and strewn over the stone floors of medieval castles as a disinfectant and deodorant. Today lavender essential oil is a component of many aromatherapy blends.

Lavender’s unique aroma is herbaceous and fresh, yet sweet, subtle and floral: a perfect balance of relaxing and uplifting characteristics. In fact, according to aromatherapists, the balancing attribute is lavender’s most prevalently described aromatherapy benefit.

In folklore, pillows were filled with lavender flowers to help restless people fall sleep. Scientific evidence suggests that aromatherapy with lavender may slow the activity of the nervous system, improve sleep quality, promote relaxation, and lift mood in people suffering from sleep disorders.
