Most cosmetic formulations begin with purified water.
Ours begin with a plant.
Before becoming part of a formulation, every Botanical Water already carries the subtle character of the botanical from which it was distilled.
The Simplicity Behind the Distillation
Every Phaedrae Botanical Water begins with one certified organic botanical and spring water.
Produced through slow steam distillation in Occitanie, France, they preserve the aromatic water naturally released by the plant itself—without blending, dilution, or added fragrance.
Every Botanical Water begins long before the bottle.
In the quiet meeting of a plant, spring water, and steam.
One Botanical. One Origin.
This Botanical Water reflects a single plant, one harvest, and one place.
Rather than beginning a formulation with purified water, it begins with the aromatic water naturally obtained during distillation. The result is remarkably simple in composition, yet rich in botanical character.

Questions
Is it suitable for sensitive skin?
Peppermint can feel stimulating on very sensitive or reactive skin. If you’re sensitive to peppermint or its compounds, switch to another of our botanical water.
Will it dry out my skin?
Peppermint Botanical Water is best suited to normal, combination, oily, and blemish-prone skin.
While it is not formulated to dry the skin, those with very dry skin may prefer one of our other botanical water.
Does it contain fragrance or essential oils?
No added fragrance is used. The crisp mint aroma comes naturally from peppermint hydrolate, which retains naturally occurring aromatic compounds from the distillation process.
