A cited maximum is a limit, not a suggested dilution. Missing restrictions do not establish safety.

No furocoumarin-related phototoxic restriction was identified for steam-distilled Lavandula angustifolia oil in the consulted public sources.

Contraindications & cautions

  • minorThe public safety source reviewed reports no special precautions for lavender essential oil, but oxidized material is more likely to sensitize than fresh oil.

THE SCIENCE BEHIND THE SCENT

Inside the oil

13 constituents

An oil's character comes from its natural chemical composition. Explore each constituent to understand the connections.

About this composition

This Oregon lavender record is tied to Liberty Natural's live Oregon-grown Buena Vista lavender product and farm-distillation pages for provenance and process. Public Oregon lot-specific GC/MS data were not located in this pass, so the quantitative composition follows the verified ISO 3515 profile for Lavandula angustifolia oil. All 13 characteristic components listed in ISO 3515:2002 Table 1 ("Other origins" column) are now represented, including limonene, beta-phellandrene, 3-octanone, and lavandulol added to raise mass closure; ISO 3515:2002 Table 1 is a normative chromatographic-profile standard covering only the standard's designated marker components, not a full quantitative GC/MS breakdown, so closure is legitimately capped below 100% by this source.

What we're still learning · 4 data gaps

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

  • The Oregon provenance is directly sourced, but no public Oregon lot-specific GC/MS or COA was located in this pass; the missing source type is a readable Oregon batch certificate or GC/MS report.
  • max_dermal_pct 100 reflects the archive's unrestricted-oil convention based on the cited public safety summary reporting no special precautions rather than a source publishing a numeric ceiling for Oregon lavender specifically.
  • Odor intensity 50 is a normalization of AromaWeb's published 'Medium' aroma strength into the archive's 0-100 scale rather than a directly published 0-100 measurement.
  • No directly measured public volatility-rate or tenacity-hour data were verified in this pass.
