What this product is

Written from the ingredient list. Where it describes how a formula behaves, that is inferred from what the ingredients are and where they sit in the list, not measured.

Overview

Ritual Hair Oil Lavender & Patchouli is a hair oil from AROMATICA, aimed at coily hair, curly hair and coarse hair. On the evidence of its ingredient list, the formula works on moisture, shine and frizz control. The ingredients doing most of that work are Isopropyl Myristate, Ethylhexyl Palmitate and Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Fruit Oil. The list runs to 26 ingredients, 19 of which carry a role we recognise for hair.

How it feels on hair

The oils and film-formers sit high enough in the list that the formula reads as rich — good for coarse, dry or very porous hair, and the kind of thing that can flatten fine hair. There are no silicones in the list. The formula leans to moisture rather than protein.

On the scalp

On an oily scalp the richer ingredients here can read as greasy at the roots.

Build-up and porosity

Nothing in the list is the kind of ingredient that accumulates on hair. For low porosity the formula is on the heavy side — it can sit on top rather than absorb.

Where it goes

It is a finishing step, applied last on damp or dry lengths.

What it is not for

Nothing in this formula is aimed at protein & strength, scalp soothing, oil control and volume / lightweight — not a fault, just the shape of what is in the bottle, and the reason one product rarely covers a whole routine. No ingredient here is one we recognise as supporting hair growth. Reducing breakage and growing hair are different things, and this formula's evidence is for the first.
