General Uses Top

Suggest a correction!

Common products:
Leaf and flower essential oil; dried herb for flavoring.

Fragrance and cosmetics:
The essential oil of Lavandula dentata is used in perfumery and as a fragrance component in consumer products. Major constituents include linalool and camphor (Muller et al., 1995; Dob et al., 2006), with chemotypes that can be camphor-rich (Cavanagh & Wilkinson, 2002).

Food and beverages (non-medicinal):
The leaves and flowers are used as a flavoring ingredient in Morocco and other Mediterranean contexts, typically added to sugar and syrups for desserts (Boulos, 2000; Michael, 2019). In North Africa, flowers are sometimes infused into milk-based sweets (Chevallier, 1996). The essential oil is not used as a food ingredient; only the dried herb is employed as a flavorant (Leung & Foster, 1996).

Properties relevant to use:
The oil’s odor profile and linalool content support perfumery applications (Muller et al., 1995). Flavoring use relies on the spice/herb material rather than the essential oil (Leung & Foster, 1996).
