Helichrysum Hydrosol (Helichrysum italicum) Organic
Certified Organic Italicum Helichrysum Hydrosol from the USA – Regenerating and Rejuvenating
Certified organic hydrosol is produced through steam distillation of flowers from organic farms. This pure hydrosol belongs to a select group of distillates that genuinely "work" on sensitive and reactive skin. Distillation performed specifically for hydrosol (not as a byproduct of essential oil) yields a clean, stable profile with an herbal-honey aroma. The water used for distillation is crystal clear (mountain spring water).
Artisan product, not produced on an industrial scale. Limited quantity.
Italicum Helichrysum hydrosol is renowned primarily for its rejuvenating properties – it's a natural essential in skincare. It is among the most potent hydrosols in aromatherapy for supporting the body's natural repair processes. It has an herbal, warm, honey-like aroma that helps open the heart to deep emotional healing – both fresh and long-held wounds.
Our certified organic Helichrysum hydrosol is steam distilled from intensely yellow flowers of plants grown in the USA specifically for hydrosol distillation.
Aromatics International distills specifically for hydrosol, using a longer distillation time, fresh plant material, and copper alembics, which ensures:
- Greater concentration of active water-soluble compounds
- Better therapeutic properties
- More stable fragrance
Using hydrosol alongside essential oil provides the full spectrum of benefits – from both the oil and water fractions of the plant.

Hydrosols vs. essential oils – what's the difference?
Simply put: hydrosol is water-based, and essential oil is oil-based. Hydrosol contains hydrophilic (water-loving) plant components, while essential oil contains lipophilic (fat-loving) molecules.
The oil content in hydrosol is trace, too small for the oil to separate or float to the surface (which is why hydrosol does not need to be shaken before use).

Quality Guarantee – Artisan Distillation
Hydrosols are made from fresh, certified organic plants, steam distilled in traditional copper alembics. Each one is created intentionally – specifically for 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 animals – though in animal aromatherapy, we always allow them to choose whether they want contact with the scent.
