- Note that there is a French PDO designation, obtained for a lavender produced at 800 meters above the sea level, guaranteed 100% pure and natural, produced in a defined area and having specific chromatographic characteristics. The label is awarded by a jury of experts after an olfactory evaluation. Other labels such as the ECO-Cert, Qualité-France and SOCOTEC labels can be attributed to organic lavender absolute productions.
On the lavender plant population, the leafhopper, an insect feeding on plant sap, bites the plants causing their death. Kaolin is a pesticide used to control this insect, which does not attack clonal lavender plants.
Many adulterations can occur regarding the absolute lavender.
