Rosemary hydrosol is extracted from the rosemary plant, which has been used both in the kitchen and in medicine since ancient times. In ancient Rome and Greece, rosemary was believed to enhance memory. This historical background has paved the way for rosemary to find its place in modern aromatherapy and natural care.
Rosemary grows in the hot and dry climates of the Mediterranean and has historically been widely used in these regions.
Production: Rosemary hydrosol is obtained by steam distillation. The plants are steam distilled and the vapor is cooled to a liquid state. This process yields the hydrosol, which contains the essential oils and nutritional properties of rosemary. The leaves and twigs of the plant are used in the production. These parts contain the rich components of rosemary and contribute to the efficacy and aroma profile of the hydrosol.
Color, Aroma and Fragrance: Rosemary hydrosol is usually a clear to slightly cloudy liquid. In terms of odor, it offers a fresh, woody and slightly spicy aroma. This scent provides a refreshing and invigorating effect both in skin care and aromatherapy. The fragrance note offers a fresh and natural aroma. The strength of the aroma is medium, which makes the product effective in both skin care and aromatherapy.
Warnings: Rosemary hydrosol is generally a safe product. However, it should be used with caution on sensitive skin or in people at risk of allergic reactions. A small test is recommended before using a new product. It is also important to follow the instructions for use of the product.
Storage: It is best to store rosemary hydrosol in a cool, dry and dark place. It can remain at room temperature, but should be kept away from direct sunlight and moisture. This preserves the freshness and effectiveness of the hydrosol.
