Lavender Pacific Blue NZ Essential Oil

Cultivated and steam-distilled in New Zealand, this premium Pacific Blue Lavender (Lavandula angustifolia) offers an exceptionally clean, sweet, and herbaceous aroma profile. The Pacific Blue cultivar is highly sought after by perfumers and formulators for its notably low camphor content, which eliminates the harsh, medicinal sharpness often found in commercial lavender oils. 

Aromatherapy & Well-being Applications: Within holistic aromatherapy, Pacific Blue Lavender is revered for its profoundly grounding and soothing properties. Thanks to its high linalyl acetate content, diffusing this oil helps cultivate a serene, relaxing atmosphere. It is an exceptional companion for meditation practices, winding down after a long day, or incorporating into a night time routine to encourage a restful environment. For a calming botanical bath, blend 3–5 drops with an emulsifying agent like Zurmas Hand & Body Wash - Kawakawa & Lemon before dispersing into warm water.

Zurma Essential Oils - Highest Quality Pure and Natural

At Zurma we go to great lengths to ensure that we only sell the highest quality pure and natural essential oils. We have searched the world for the best essential oils. Our in-house quality control system ensures that this high standard is maintained for all our essential oils. Every essential oil comes with a Certificate of Analysis (COA) and Gas Chromatograph/Mass Spectrometer (GCMS) test to confirm that they are genuine and authentic essential oils containing their correct active constituents.

The only exception to this is with the New Zealand small scale essential oil producers we buy direct from e.g., Lavender, Mānuka, Kānuka, Tea Tree etc. This is because we know and trust these growers who distil their own essential oils.

Finally, all essential oils have to undergo our own in-house smell, appearance and feel test and if they are not up to our high standards, we simply send the product back to the supplier. Based on this quality control process we believe that the 100% Pure and Natural essential oils that Zurma supplies to our customers are of the highest quality and are excellent for use in aromatherapy.
