I purchased the Lavender Olive Oil and I just love it! I put it on my hands a couple of times during the day and just before I go to sleep. I just love the way it makes my hands feel -- the fragrance is so light and pleasant -- and I've also noticed that it softens my cuticles! I will definitely be making additional purchases. I am keeping one in my office.

The minute I saw your Lavender Olive Oil I knew it would be far more than a skin emollient or hair dressing in my household. My mother used a hot olive oil treatment on her hair for years, so I knew how useful it could be, and the fact that it was scented was a big plus, but I had bigger plans for your product.
I decided to try it in pastry, since I've often seen recipes for lavender shortbread in modern cookbooks. With my standard short bread recipe of butter, sugar, flour and ground almonds, I added 6 squirts of your lavender olive oil for a distinctive floral note. After I cut the shortbread into "fingers" I added a white chocolate squiggle down the middle of each shortbread cookie. When melting the chocolate, I added 6 more squirts of your lavender olive oil and it was so delicious I've decided to try it in a chocolate truffle recipe. The best part is that the cookies look much nicer that those I've seen with actual lavender buds in them.
