INCI: Nepeta cataria

Escentia Catnip Hydrosol is a single-ingredient botanical hydrosol distilled from the purple flowers of Nepeta cataria , used as a gentle water-based ingredient for DIY cosmetic and home fragrancing applications. It is commonly enjoyed for its soft, comforting character in pillow mists, bedtime sprays, and outdoor spray blends. This is a hydrosol, not an essential oil, so it is far lighter and can be used very differently in formulations. It can also be misted onto suitable play items for cats.

♡ Why we love it: Catnip hydrosol is one of those charming, versatile botanicals that feels just as at home in a calming evening mist as it does in a playful pet-friendly spray. It is easy to work with, beautifully simple, and a lovely option for makers who enjoy botanical waters with more than one practical use.

A: Yes, it works well as a base or companion hydrosol in DIY spray blends, especially when you want a softer botanical profile.

Q: Can I spray it directly onto my cat’s toys?
A: Yes, a light mist can be used on suitable play items your cat is free to interact with. Use sparingly and make sure the item itself is pet-safe.
