The only exception was lavender which – along with rose and violet – was one of the most popular scents in Victorian times. As well as being used in soaps, perfumes and toilet waters, lavender was used in potpourris, to scent clothing and linen, and as a cure-all.English lavender was generally regarded as superior to French and it commanded a higher price. As well as differences in the types of plants grown, English lavender came from the flowers of cultivated plants, whereas French lavender of the time was sourced mainly from wild plants and often included stems and leaves along with the flowers.
