- Lavandin Super is NOT lavender. It is the olfactorily-closest of the three lavandin cultivars to true lavender EO, but carries the same antiplatelet / anticoagulant caution as Abrialis + Grosso. Do not use as a 1:1 substitute in anticoagulant-user contexts.
- Highest linalyl acetate of the three cultivars (38.6–44.3%), lowest camphor (4.5–5.3%), lowest 1,8-cineole (3.0–3.6%) → closest chemistry to true lavender (which is ~41.6% linalyl acetate, <1% camphor, <2.5% cineole in the French clonal profile).
- Oral cautions: anticoagulant medication, major surgery, peptic ulcer, hemophilia, other bleeding disorders (B216 p.655 + Box 7.1). Same shared caution as Abrialis + Grosso.
- Non-phototoxic, low sensitization at conventional dermal dilutions.
- The "lavender-like" commercial option — used when lavandin's yield + price advantage is wanted but a softer / less medicinal olfactory profile than Abrialis or Grosso is required.

Pha Chế & Hòa Hợp
Linalool (~29–38%) modulates GABA-A receptor activity and inhibits glutamate at NMDA receptors, producing mild CNS calming; camphor (7–11%) partially antagonises this effect, making the overall profile less sedating than true L. angustifolia.
Ref: class-extrapolation from lavender-angustifolia; constituent profile per Lawrence 2001a; Milchard et al 2004
Linalyl acetate (~24–33%) and linalool together reduce smooth-muscle hypertonicity; the combined ester-alcohol pool relaxes skeletal and visceral muscle spasm at massage dilutions.
Ref: class-extrapolation from lavender-angustifolia; Tisserand & Young 2014, Ch.13
Camphor (7–11%) produces counter-irritant analgesia and local vasodilation via TRPV1 stimulation and subsequent receptor desensitisation; linalool provides secondary pain modulation via opioid-receptor-independent pathways.
Ref: Tisserand & Young 2014, Ch.13; constituent profile per Lawrence 2001a
1,8-Cineole (~6%), camphor, and linalool each disrupt microbial membrane integrity; their combination broadens Gram+ and fungal coverage beyond any single constituent alone.
Ref: class-extrapolation from lavender-angustifolia and eucalyptus-cineole (cineole class); Tisserand & Young 2014, Ch.13
1,8-Cineole (eucalyptol, ~6%) reduces mucus viscosity and stimulates mucociliary clearance via activation of Cl⁻ channels in airway epithelial cells.
Ref: class-extrapolation from eucalyptus-cineole (cineole class); Tisserand & Young 2014, Ch.13
Lavandin EO inhibits collagen-induced platelet aggregation (IC₅₀ demonstrated in Grosso cultivar); extended precautionarily to Super given near-identical linalool pool and shared oral caution per Table 4.10B / Box 7.1.
Ref: Ballabeni et al 2004 (Grosso cultivar); Table 4.10B, Box 7.1 (B216 Ch.4/7); precautionary class-extrapolation to Super
Linalool and linalyl acetate down-regulate NF-κB-mediated cytokine release (IL-6, TNF-α) in keratinocyte and macrophage models; camphor contributes additional counter-irritant modulation of local inflammatory signalling.

AI-summary
No RCT-grade clinical trials were located specifically for the Lavandin Super cultivar. Opdyke (1976) conducted a Human Repeat Insult Patch Test (HRIPT) confirming non-sensitisation and non-photosensitisation under controlled conditions, and established an oral LD₅₀ well above cosmetic exposure levels. Ballabeni et al (2004) demonstrated in vitro inhibition of collagen-induced platelet aggregation by Lavandin Grosso EO; the finding is extended precautionarily to Super given nearly identical linalool-pool chemistry, but no direct human trial was conducted. The bulk of therapeutic use rests on traditional aromatherapy application and class-level evidence from L. angustifolia and L. x intermedia Grosso research.

| Phương pháp | Liều lượng | Ghi chú |
|---|---|---|
| Diffusion | 3–5 drops per 100 ml water | Suitable for relaxation and mild respiratory support. Camphor (7–11%) requires ventilation; contraindicated around infants <2 years and those with febrile convulsion history. |
| Topical massage | 1–2% in carrier oil (max 1% for sensitive or elderly skin) | Blends with sweet almond, jojoba, or fractionated coconut. Use on shoulders/lower back for antispasmodic benefit; avoid damaged skin. T&Y lavandin framework max dermal applies. |
| Bath | 5–8 drops dispersed in 1 tsp unscented bath gel or milk emulsifier | Always disperse in bath gel or milk — neat droplets cause skin irritation. Avoid in children <6 (camphor). Warm, not hot, bath reduces linalool peroxide evaporation risk. |
| Steam inhalation | 2–3 drops in a bowl of hot water | Eyes closed, 30 cm from bowl, towel over head, 5–8 min. 1,8-Cineole supports mucociliary clearance. Avoid in asthma or reactive airway conditions without medical guidance. |
| Skincare (cosmetic blend) | 0.5–1% in unscented lotion or serum base | Non-phototoxic (Opdyke 1976) — safe for daytime use. Use 0.5% for sensitive skin. Discard preparations older than 6 months due to linalool oxidation risk (IFRA 2009). |
| Cold compress | 3–4 drops in 500 ml cool water on cloth | Apply to forehead or temples for tension headache, or to muscles post-exercise. Camphor's counter-irritant effect enhances compress benefit for minor musculoskeletal pain. |
