Lavandin is a hybrid plant developed in 1900 by crossing true lavender (L. angustifolia) with spike lavender or aspic (L. latifolia) and is larger than lavender with a woody stem and blue or gray flowers. It is grown extensively in France and often preferred by the perfume industry for its oil and the flowers for sachets, potpourri and craft work. Lavandin oil is extracted from the fresh flowering tops by steam distillation. The main chemical components of lavandin oil are lavandulol, linalool, linalyl acetate, camphor, cineole, caryophyllene, camphene, dipentene, limonene, ocimene and terpinene.
