The name lavender (L avandula angustifolia) comes from the Latin word lavare, which means to bathe, and explains the basic purpose of the dried flower and essential oil. In use since ancient times and the time of the Roman Empire for its therapeutic qualities, lavender is often mentioned in the writings of St. Hildegarde of Bingen who described its numerous medicinal properties, citing it as one of the plants that are a necessary ingredient in every “home pharmacy”.
