Plant & Properties 
Native to southern Europe and the Mediterranean, Melissa officinalis is a perennial herb in the mint family, valued for its fresh citrus fragrance and soft, leafy appearance. It grows in bushy clumps of light to mid‑green, gently crinkled, oval leaves with softly toothed edges that release a bright lemon scent when touched. In summer, it produces small, delicate pale yellow to white flowers that attract bees and pollinators.

Naturally refreshing and aromatic, this hydrolat helps leave the skin feeling clean and lightly toned while offering versatile use across both cosmetic routines and everyday lifestyle applications.

Uses 

Hydrolats can be combined into blends and synergies based on their properties and their scent to create health–promoting essences.

Room Refreshers:Spray liberally around pets, cooking areas, bedrooms and other areas of your environment.  Particularly useful in the office to help prevent the spread of disease.

Mouthwash and Gargle:Dilute 1:10 for children and 1:4 for adults for gargles and mouthwashes to help strengthen gums, freshen breath, relieve sore throats, ulcers, thrush and toothache.

Health Drink:To help promote a healthy, balanced body, dilute 200 ml of hydrolat into 1 litre of water and drink throughout the day. 

Baths:Add up to 100 ml to an adult bath and 50 ml to a child’s bath.  Hydrolats can also be used in sitz baths.

Compress:Soak a cloth in hydrolat and compress to the area being treated. For a hot compress, use a hot cloth, and for a cold compress, use a cold cloth. Wrap up the area with plastic film and leave for 30 minutes.
