Hydrosols
Bay Laurel Hydrosol.
The aromatic water of bay laurel leaves, organically grown and distilled in France: the familiar scent of laurel in a far gentler form, to mist over skin after a dry-brushing ritual.

About this product
Before the shower, a few slow minutes with a dry brush; after, a cool mist of bay laurel over warm skin. It is a small morning ritual with an old-world air, the scent of the leaves once woven into victors' crowns.
This hydrosol is drawn by hydro-distillation from the leaves of Laurus nobilis, organically grown and distilled in France, and sometimes called laurel leaf. Its aroma is very similar to the leaves themselves, but much gentler than the dried leaves or the essential oil, a softer way to bring laurel into your day.
Bay laurel hydrosol is usually said to keep for a shorter time than most hydrosols, so buy what you will use within a few months and store it carefully: somewhere cool and dark, with as little air in the bottle as possible.
Details
- Botanical name: Laurus nobilis

- Method: hydro-distilled leaves
How to use
