CHASTE TREE HYDROSOL (FLORAL WATER)

Chaste Tree Hydrosol – a traditional European herbal water
Chaste tree (Vitex agnus-castus) has a long and well-documented history in European herbal tradition. Ancient and monastic sources describe it as a plant of rhythm, regulation, and gradual balance, especially in the context of natural cycles.

Chaste tree hydrosol is a water-based aromatic distillate obtained through steam distillation of the fruits. As a hydrosol, it represents a gentle and steady way to work with this traditionally deep-acting plant, suitable for everyday external use.

– in baths intended for relaxation and grounding,
– as a mild floral water for skin care,
– in aromatic preparations designed for calming routines,
– as part of evening or slow-paced care rituals.

Herbal traditions often describe chaste tree as a plant chosen when care focused on patience, stability, and long-term balance.
