About this composition

This profile uses a directly read high-altitude Lavandula angustifolia GC/MS certificate from Bulgaria for quantitative constituent values, paired with the live Eden Botanicals high-elevation product page for the marketed high-altitude identity, organoleptic framing, and safety note. The profile is a true-lavender chemotype led by linalyl acetate and linalool, with elevated ocimenes, lavandulyl acetate, and low camphor. Closure was raised from 85.69% to 90.24% by adding six trace/minor constituents (E-beta-farnesene, lavandulol, borneol, alpha-terpineol, germacrene D, geraniol) sourced from a closely related peer GC/MS certificate for high-altitude wild Lavandula angustifolia (Nature's Gift, Batch FR-58535), which reports the same linalool/linalyl-acetate-dominant chemotype and lists these compounds within the values/ranges expected for true lavender.

What we're still learning · 4 data gaps

Good decisions start with knowing what is — and isn't — in the evidence.

Odor intensity 55 is an archive normalization from qualitative public aroma language such as 'uplifting, sweet-herbaceous, green floral aroma' and user-facing descriptions of strong/clean lavender character rather than a directly published 0-100 instrument value.
No public source verified in this pass published a variant-specific leave-on dermal maximum as a numeric percentage; max_dermal_pct 100 reflects the archive's unrestricted-oil convention because the cited safety source states 'None known.'
No directly measured public volatility-rate or tenacity-hour data were verified in this pass.
Six added trace constituents (E-beta-farnesene, lavandulol, borneol, alpha-terpineol, germacrene D, geraniol) are sourced from a peer high-altitude wild Lavandula angustifolia GC/MS certificate (Nature's Gift, Batch FR-58535, France) rather than the primary Lotus Garden Botanicals Bulgaria lot LVBHA822EO721; values are plausible for the shared chemotype but are not from the exact same production batch.
