This lavender is a standard oil that is sold in larger volumes for perfumery and cosmetic applications. The 38/40 refers to the total esters after acetylation as linalyl acetate. We meet the requirements by using selected batches with the desirable component levels to ensure quality and consistency. Other French lavender oils will vary from year to year and from farmer to farmer.
