L’Appellation d’Origine Contrôlée « Huile Essentielle de Lavande de Haute Provence »

Abstract

Depuis des siècles, la lavande est utilisée pour son parfum et pour ses vertus thérapeutiques naturelles.
La cueillette de la lavande sauvage s’est développée à grande échelle dans les montagnes calcaires de la Provence à la fin du 19e siècle. L’écoulement de la production s’effectuait presque exclusivement vers la ville de Grasse, cité des parfumeurs.
Progressivement, la culture s’est substituée à la cueillette dans les années 1930.

‘It’s a small, yappy dog’: The British idea of terroir

Aims: Most consumer research about terroir has focused on wine, particularly with French or other European wine drinkers, rather than those in the Anglo-Saxon world.
