ESSENTIAL REFLECTIONS DISCOVERY SETS
HYDROSOL DISCOVERY
TRAVEL THROUGH HYDROSOLS
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.
ARTISAN.
SMALL BATCH.
MAGIC.
Distillation is a journey for us, and we invite you to journey with us through our precious slow-distilled artisan hydrosols. Simply and profoundly, the alchemical mist as a scented messenger makes an immediate effect for our feel-good and well-being. Healing vibes in layers - as you perceive them.
We believe in freedom and personal choices. We invite you to create your own aromatic kit by selecting from the hydrosols we currently have available. Please understand that due to our small-scale educative distillations, we only have a relatively small amount of these lovely aromatic waters at a time. We do our best to distill by the season and be able to share with those who appreciate these individual creations.
CURRENTLY we are re-working the way we would offer our Essential Reflections Hydrosol Discovery packs in the future. For the time being, if you would like to receive some of them, please kindly select the hydrosols you wish to have by ticking the checkbox from the list here. Then add your details, complete with any personal messages you want to add. We will get back to you to confirm the availability, size, price and payment options.
Thank you for your interest!
We appreciate your support,
and believe it is our shared mission!
