With its unmistakable fragrance, lavender is renowned for its use in the beauty industry, but this striking plant has many other applications – from potpourri through to distilling gin. Central to lavender’s popularity as a botanical ingredient is its abundant, floral fragrance – it’s both highly distinctive and highly prized. Both the Romans and the Greeks used the plant as a fragrance, while the Egyptians favoured its use as an embalming ingredient.
