Natural Lavender from the plant is my most favourite smell. I love it. I like it in soaps and stuff as well but not in the same way as when its in the garden. Looks like you got a good harvest this year. I would love to see one of those Lavender farms that I've only seen in photographs, where the fields are nothing but long lines of purple flowers. Very beautiful. I've also always been facinated with distilling. I made vodka once from a homemade still. Never essential oils though
