Lavender Essential Oil ranks among the most popular and versatile essential oils. From ancient history to today, lavender has had much of the same uses. The Romans used it in their soaps; the Egyptians in their perfumes; and the French, during the Renaissance era, used it to wash their clothing. Today, lavender is one of the most recognizable scents and is often used in flower bouquets to provide a mild but satisfying floral aroma.
