What is Italian Helichrysum hydrosol and how does it differ from floral waters?

First of all, let’s clarify one point: Italian Helichrysum and Immortelle are two names for the same plant, Helichrysum italicum.

Italian Helichrysum hydrosol is the aromatic water obtained when Immortelle flowers are distilled to produce its essential oil. Unlike essential oil, hydrolat is much gentler and can be applied directly to the skin. It retains the plant’s therapeutic properties, but in a lighter form, ideal for everyday use.

A floral water is a specific hydrolat. Quite simply, it’s a hydrosol distilled from a flower. You’re probably familiar with orange blossom water, rose water or lavender floral water. This is the same extraction method as for Helichrysumhydrolat or floral water.

Hydrolat and floral water, immortelle and helichrysum: many synonyms for one extraordinary product.
