The Story

The Story

A rejuvenating tonic for sensitive, dry, oily and mature complexions, this hydrosol is exceptional at encouraging circulation and offsetting the effects of pollution.

Wildly refreshing and hydrating, rose geranium is a humectant, meaning it is attracted to moisture and holds it in the skin. It is also emotionally balancing, known for its ability to offset an overwhelmed mind.

Like walking through an archway of roses after a warm summer rain, rose geranium’s uplifting floral scent invites an immediate mood boost.

This hydrosol is crafted exclusively for Maison/Made by a master artisan and certified Biodynamic® distiller in limited quantities. Our hydrosols are made with fresh, Biodynamic plant material distilled within minutes of harvesting to capture the abundant plant compounds and cellular water at a time in their growth cycle when the plant is at its most vital and essential oil production is high.

Our hydrosols represent the true synergy of herbalism and aromatherapy, blending potent but gentle phytonutrient compounds with heavenly aromatic virtues.

Ingredient

ROSE GERANIUM

Locally sourced Biodynamic® Pelargonium graveolens steam-distilled hydrolat

From Seed to Bottle

All our hydrosols are grown on the same farm, by the same master Biodynamic gardener in New York, close to our studio.

From the very beginning of the plant’s life, through its growth and flowering within a very well draining soil, to the time of harvest, we provide our plants an environment that thoroughly enhances their medicinal qualities, a gift of the Biodynamic® approach to soil and plants.

HOW A HYDROSOL IS BORN

Step 1 Once the harshness of winter and the last frost have passed, the geranium plants are returned from the garden after a season of hibernation in the green house. Once planted, the rose geraniums that become our hydrosols are treated with special Biodynamic sprays to foster fertility and vibrancy.

Step 2 Late in summer, our master gardener and distiller begins to plan their harvest, knowing from 30 years of experience, the best time to capture the abundant plant compounds and cellular water at a time in their growth cycle when the plant is at its most vital and essential oil production is high.

Step 3 Within minutes of harvesting, the rose geranium leaves are placed into a classic copper alembic still. Natural well spring water is heated to create the steam that then passes through the plant material, condensing into hydrosol and filling the greenhouse with its intoxicating rosey aroma.

Step 4 The sterilized jars filled with newly produced hydrosol are refrigerated until filled into the very bottles that end up in your hands.

The Result Every step of this process is focused on the details to give us the most decadent hydrosols we’ve ever seen. Like an exquisite wine, our fine hydrosols are the result of their terroir - the location and method of growing, the precise time of harvest, the exact distillation process and bottling.

A message from our master distiller

“Our hydrosols come from the steam distillation of our medicinal plants.

Made in micro batches to ensure only first-choice plants are used, we take great care through each step of the distillation process.”

“From the very beginning of the plant’s life, through its growth and flowering within a very well draining soil, to the time of harvest, we provide our plants an environment that thoroughly enhances their medicinal qualities, a gift of the Biodynamic® approach to soil and plants.

Involving specific sprays, attention to the quality of the soil, timing of intervention in regards to the moon and other energetic aspects, our goal is to foster a high content of qualitative medicinal constituents. This you will find in the hydrosols we make.”

Descriptions of Plants: Rose Geranium

A symbol of love, rose geranium was often used in herbal love sachets once the plant originally reached Europe in the late 17th century. It was regarded as a protective herb, exemplified in an old herbal adage: “Snakes will not go, where geraniums grow.”

All About Hydrosols

Distillate plant waters, while fairly overlooked in modern aromatherapy, have long been affiliated with healing and were in use far before essential oils as we know them today were.

Jardin to Bottle

At Maison/Made we talk frequently about our “jardin to bottle” approach. What we mean by Jardin to Bottle is an acute knowledge of the complete lifecycle of every ingredient in our formulas.
