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.

profile.
