Floral waters or aromatic waters are produced through the distillation of plants, flowers, and herbs using steam. They come from various parts, such as the leaves or flowers of the plant. They contain a lower concentration of aromatic substances compared to the respective essential oils, thus retaining the same properties but are less concentrated.

They are widely used in aromatherapy, either alone or as bases for essential oils. They are suitable for cosmetic use and are considered practical and effective for personal hygiene. They provide a sense of freshness, tone, hydrate, soothe, scent, and revitalize the skin.

They can be added to recipes for homemade cosmetics, as well as in hair rinses for nourishment and toning. They can even be used in cooking and pastry making.
