Hydrosols, also known as floral waters, hydroflorates, flower waters or distillates and are produced from steam distilling plant materials. Hydrosols are like essential oils but far less concentrated.

When a distiller brews plant material with water in a large cooker the steam fills the pot and, as it rises, it causes the glands of the plants to burst and release the oils and essence of the plant into the steam. The oil rises through a condenser and collects in a separate vessel. This is what we know as essential oil, but what about all that fragrant water that was steamed with the original plant material? That is our hydrosol, or floral water.

Usually the distillation of hydrosols is the result of an essential oil by-product but the highest quality hydrosols come from the singular distillers who, with artist like precision, steam the floral and plant material strictly to produce just a hydrosol.

The Hydrosols offered by Luminescents are produced in this fashion. Hydrosols contain all of the essence of the plant in every drop, just like essential oils but in a milder form; making them suitable for all manner of applications where essential oils would be too strong.

Luminescents Floral Waters are free of emulsifying agents and preservatives. Imported internationally, these waters are extremely versatile.
