Melissa officinalis flower/leaf/stem water is the aqueous distillate made from extracts of lemon balm, a herbaceous plant of the labiate family (see under lemon balm), which can grow to a size of up to 60 cm. When the leaves are rubbed into the water, a pleasant, intensive lemon aroma is released.

Melissa officinalis flower/leaf/stem water, the aqueous distillate, is obtained from the steam distillates of flowers, leaves, stems and stems. Melissa officinalis flower/leaf/stem water is used in cosmetic formulations. The distillate has a strengthening effect on the skin or hair, furthermore as a fragrance (reduces or inhibits the basic smell or taste of a product).
