Wolds Way Lavender's Floral Water is one of two products from the distillation of Lavender process. It is the evaporated water (steam) that has passed through the Lavender in the still to release the 100% Pure Lavender Essential Oil. When the liquid is cooled through the condenser, the Lavender Essential Oil, being lighter than the Lavender Floral Water, floats on the top. The Lavender Essential Oil is skimmed off leaving the Lavender Floral Water. A pure distilled water flavoured and fragranced with the Lavender.

Lavender Floral Water (hydrolat) comes from the Lavender Distillation process. It is the recovered steam from the steam distillation of the lavender flower heads and upper stems. It is the by-product of the Lavender distillation process to produce Lavender Essential Oil. True hydrolats contain micronized droplets of Lavender Essential Oil suspended in the Lavender Floral Water and are very different from Lavender Water which is water that has had Lavender Essential Oil and a dispersant added.
This causes some confusion as 'floral waters' may conjure up in the mind something which smells sweet or floral and this is not always the case. Indeed many true hydrolats do not smell like the plant they originally came from or the essential oil which may arise from the distillation of such a plant. Their smell can be pungent and earthy, but not unpleasant. Some hydrolats are completely devoid of smell due to the minuscule proportions of aromatic compounds present and others smell quite musty. The lack of aroma, however, in either the plant or the hydrolat does not detract from the very useful therapeutic properties. As Hydrolats are mainly water they are gentle and safe to use, they are easily applied, absorbed and ingested. They can be used on babies and old alike.
