See how our lavender products stack up on sourcing, scent purity, and daily use.
| Features | Lavender Backyard Garden | Other Brands |
|---|---|---|
| Essential Oil | Scented with pure Lavandula angustifolia essential oil (true lavender). | Often uses synthetic fragrance or Lavandula x intermedia (Lavandin). |
| Aroma Profile | Sweet, soft, and floral — gentle on the senses and ideal for winding down. | Typically stronger, sharper, or more herbaceous; may lack sweetness. |
| Base Oils | Crafted with nourishing plant oils: sunflower, apricot kernel, avocado, and argan. | May rely on low-cost carrier oils or include mineral oil derivatives. |
| Skin Feel | Silky, lightweight, and fast-absorbing — non-greasy after feel. | May leave a greasy residue or feel heavy on the skin. |
| Skin Benefits | Gentle, calming, and suitable for sensitive skin or nightly routines. | May not be suitable for daily use or those with skin sensitivities. |
| Production Style | Handcrafted in small batches using lavender grown on our New Zealand farm. | Often mass-produced with imported or lab-made ingredients. |
