Hydrosols are a by-product of essential oil distillation, sometimes referred to as "flower-waters" but don't even get us started on how confusing that distinction can be!
Basically, this is the drawn-off water from the steam distillation process, which contains many therapeutic benefits of the plant, and also smells AMAZING!
