Lemon Zest

Latin name: Citrus limon (L.) Osbeck


It is believed to have an Asian origin, more precisely from the cashmere region, on the borders of China and India. Derived from the cross between bitter orange and cedrat, lemon tree is a hybrid tree. Today, this shrub is grown in subtropical Mediterranean climates. In the lemon everything is good! If the essential oil is mainly contained in the bark of the fruit (or pericarp), it is also found in the leaves. Lemon zest essential oil is often used to clean up the atmosphere. It would also be of great help in case of diet, cellulite, water retention and for the liver. Be careful, however, because this essential oil is photosensitizing.

Fine lavender

Latin name: Lavandula angustifolia


The true lavender or fine lavender, from its Latin name Lavandula angustifolia is a perennial species that grows in the dry regions of southern France in particular. It originates in the western Mediterranean basin and was already used in Roman times to preserve and perfume linen. In the Middle Ages, we finally see the appearance of the term “lavender”, from the Latin “lavare” which means to wash. In other words, even then, its delicate smell seduced many of our ancestors.
