I had brought with me from the holiday of a lavender farm pure lavender oil, which is highly concentrated. And I wanted this fragrance now like to discreetly dosed enter into a cream / lotion. The "basic cream" that you can get into the pharmacy, rather unctuous in consistency, which was too thick. Therefore, I have ordered these basic lotion. I find this almost a tad too thin (hence "only" 4 stars), but otherwise very pleasant. Absorbs quickly, is comfortable on the skin, smells in their original state not actually and a great to add to admit their own additives. It is a light lotion, so nothing is right extremely dry skin (unless you are added fabrics). For my purpose, it lends itself very well, and I am glad my lavender scent now be able to dose himself.
