Lavender Fragrances

A lavender accord smells aromatic, herbal, floral, and clean, with cool facets that can feel fresh, camphoraceous, slightly minty, or gently powdery. It has a long association with colognes, fougères, barbershop scents, and relaxing aromatic blends, but it also appears in modern musks, ambers, gourmands, and unisex fragrances. Lavender pairs naturally with bergamot, lemon, rosemary, sage, mint, oakmoss, tonka bean, vanilla, coumarin, woods, incense, and musk. Some lavender accords are crisp and medicinal, while others are soft, floral, honeyed, or creamy. The note can make a fragrance feel polished, calming, fresh, nostalgic, or unexpectedly sensual.
