Beyond the label, use these markers to verify the oil's authenticity:

: Ensure it lists Lavandula angustifolia (true lavender) for calming and cooking, or Lavandula x intermedia (lavandin) for a stronger, medicinal scent.

A reputable supplier will provide clear, detailed information. If the label only says "lavender oil," it may be a synthetic blend.

: Reputable brands often provide GC/MS (Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry) reports to prove the oil has no fillers or synthetic chemicals.
