Both in biochemistry and aroma, Seville Lavender develops a unique personality, where harmony and control coexist. Largely underused, its pedigree is worth the diversions and should make it possible to make greater use of a species that is widely available, in large quantities, and wild to boot. Precautions for use Do not use during pregnancy or breastfeeding, or in young children, epileptics or those with a history of seizures. Uncommon essential oil, to be used on the advice of a practitioner. Risk of allergy: take care not to overdose in mixtures.
