Formulation view Traditional floral concentrate featuring bitter orange flower water and rose essential oil, with grape extract and myrrh resin. Alcohol acts as a solvent and penetration enhancer; alum provides mild astringency. No traditional preservatives; inhibition relies on alcohol and hypertonicity. Suitable for sensitive skin as a toner or mist. Factory note: low pH and high alcohol limit microbial growth, but water quality and essential oil purity must be strictly controlled to prevent contamination.
