About the History of Hydrosol

According to historical records that still exist, the earliest place where the concept of hydrosol appeared was ancient Egypt. But at that time the concept of hydrosol was still very vague. It was just that the queen of Egypt liked to confuse and attract men with the aroma of plants.

The concept of hydrosol should be that a great physician in Arabia 1000 years ago, Avicenna invented the technique of distilling essential oils. To be precise, it improved the ancient distillation method. The aqueous solution obtained by distillation is also The earliest prototype of hydrosol.

Europe: the Birthplace of Hydrosol

Following the European Crusades in the 13th century, they learned to extract essential oils and hydrosols from the Arabs, and brought hydrosols and essential oils back to Europe. In the 16th and 17th centuries, they set off a spice upsurge and became the current generation of essential oils in the world. And the birthplace of hydrosol.

The Development of Modern Hydrosol 

In the 1920s and 30s of the 20th century, chemist Gettifoss, a French medical doctor, burned his hand due to an accidental explosion during an experiment, and hurried his hand into a bowl of liquid next to him. What is incredible is that the burned hands are not so painful, and the blisters and wounds have also been reduced a lot.

Afterwards, it was discovered that the skin's ability to heal was several times higher than expected without leaving scars, and this bowl of liquid was just lavender essential oil. Since then, he began to study essential oils and wrote the world’s first monograph "Natural Aromatic Oils",

So that essential oils become a science, Mrs. Morley is known as the heir of "Father of Essential Oils" Gettyphos. This book also won the Nobel Prize in Chemistry because of its completion.

With the deepening of research on essential oils, people have found that the distilled water solution dew also has many benefits. Therefore, the essential oil plants that used to treat dew wastewater have also begun to pay attention to it. Now it has developed into a plant that specializes in making dew, and even invented Make hydrosol with low temperature extraction and no oil extraction.
