Hydrosols, hydrolats or aromatic waters are very gentle water-based solutions, created through the process of distillation and has been used throughout history. Ildiko’s distillations of Cretan aromatic plants are carried out with a traditional copper still, in small batches within a slow and artisanal setup. We thank you for honouring the Plants and our aromatic co-creations! Our ethics, education & scented stories are transparent and available throughout our website and many of our aromatic adventures can be enjoyed in our Aromatic Journal here, or followed on our Instagram or Facebook accounts.

Distillation is a journey for us, and we invite you to journey with us through our precious slow-distilled artisan hydrosols. Out of this idea, our Essential Reflections Discovery packs were born some years ago. You can pick the ones that are calling you to deliver the experience of our ceremonial processes and the abundance of the Cretan landscape, whether you have ever been here or not. They will help you enrich your scent library, your aromatic awareness, and personal perception beyond what has ever been said or written.
