Frankincense Hydrosol (Boswellia carterii) Organic
Certified organic frankincense hydrolate – resin hydrodistillation
Certified organic frankincense hydrolate (Boswellia carterii) is produced by hydrodistillation directly from the resin. This long and careful distillation process preserves a delicate fraction of volatile aromatic molecules in the aqueous phase, giving the hydrolate a distinctly soothing and nurturing effect. The water used for distillation is crystal-clear (mountain spring water).
This is one of the most highly rated hydrosols: it combines skincare with a subtle aromatic effect—bringing peace, clarity, and inner calm. Users most often highlight the brightening and smoothing of the complexion, the immediate relief, and the pure, resinous-balsamic aroma. This hydrosol has a natural, resinous-medicinal , therapeutic character (it's not your typical "floral water"). The scent can be drier/"pharmacy-like" and sometimes requires a bit of getting used to, but the soothing, clarifying effects, which bring about a fresher, younger-looking complexion, are highly appreciated. If you prefer more delicate, floral aromas, we recommend rose hydrosol (you can also mix 1:1).
Artisanal product, not manufactured on an industrial scale. Limited quantities.
Aromatics International distills specifically for hydrosol, using longer distillation times, fresh plant material and copper stills, ensuring:
- Higher concentration of active water-soluble compounds
- Better therapeutic properties
- More stable scent
Using a hydrolate alongside an oil provides a full spectrum of benefits – both the oil and water fractions of the plant.

Hydrolates and essential oils – what is the difference?
Simply put, a hydrosol is water-based, while an essential oil is fatty. A hydrosol contains the plant's hydrophilic (water-loving) components, while an essential oil contains lipophilic (fat-loving) molecules.
The oil content in the hydrolate is trace, too small for the oil to separate or float to the surface (therefore, the hydrolate does not need to be shaken before use).
Natural characteristic: The scent of a hydrosol may differ from that of an oil, due to the different composition of molecules transferred to the water. During hydrodistillation, a light, hydrophilic/dispersed fraction of the aroma is transferred to the water, rather than the full profile of the oil – hence the different character and subtlety of the scent.

Quality Guarantee – Artisanal Distillation
Hydrosols are sourced from fresh, certified organic plants, steam-distilled in traditional copper stills. Each one is created intentionally – specifically for the hydrosol, not as a byproduct of essential oil distillation.
People with sensitive skin particularly appreciate their gentleness and soothing effect. Hydrosols are also safe for children and pets – however, in aromatherapy for animals, we always allow them to choose whether they want to be exposed to the fragrance.
