Cucumber Hydrosol

The aroma of Cucumber Hydrosol is light and is reminiscent to the aroma one experiences when cutting up a fresh cucumber. Don't expect the aroma of true Cucumber Distillate to be as strong as synthetic cucumber fragrance/flower waters.

Botanical Name

Cucumis sativus

Aromatic Strength

Mild/Gentle

Shelf Life

Up to 2 years if stored properly (refrigeration is recommended).

Reported Properties, Uses and Applications

Marge Clark of Nature's Gift reports that Cucumber Hydrosol is especially cooling and is useful as a body spray and as a compress for tired eyes. Mountain Rose Herbs makes the valid point that Cucumber Hydrosol is a welcome alternative to synthetic and harsh cucumber fragrances.
