hey Bob, do you think if I infused olive oil with lavender then used it in body butter that the fragrance would hold up?

Linda I’m not aware of any chemical breakdown in the oil or the body butter oil so I would say try and see. Might want to start with a small sample amount first so you don’t waste much until you are certain. I’ll post this question to our herbfest blog, http://herbfest.net/blog/, and see if we get some other response.

In my own personal experience…i did try olive oil infusion with tea tree leaves..so far no negative results , except that the strong scent of olive oil overshadow the subtle scent of other herbs. So with lavender, you cannot have a very good aroma of your lavender oil with olive oil.
