Lavender is likely one of the first herbs we are introduced to in childhood. Many body care and laundry products add Lavender scents for their calming effect and lovely floral aroma. I remember digging in my mother's drawers to smell her lavender potpourri bags and falling in love with the scent from a young age. When you go to the spa, you can almost guarantee that Lavender is going to be infused into something. It's become the quintessential herb of "calm", and personally, I'm not mad about it.
