Discover our Lovage Hydrolate (Root) 100% Organic and Handcrafted
Hydrolat de Livèche, produced in Lozère by artisanal distillation of the roots and certified organic, is an exceptional, multi-faceted product. Known for its use as a culinary aromatic, it enriches dishes with its unique, delicate flavor.
In phytotherapy, Lovage is traditionally recognized as an emunctory drainer (liver-kidney-skin), promoting the elimination of toxins. Thanks to the phthalides of which lovage hydrosol is composed, it has an action on the liver and kidneys, stimulating their elimination action, making it perfect for “detox” cures. It naturally promotes the elimination of toxins from the body during all forms of intoxication, whether infectious, medicinal or dietary, helping to naturally purify and revitalize the body.
When you choose Essenciagua Lovage Hydrosol, you’re opting for a natural, versatile product, carefully designed to provide both gustatory pleasure and health benefits, while respecting the environment and sustainable production practices.

The Plant Livêche (Racine)
Plant part: Root
Origin: France
A sort of large wild celery in scent, stature and foliage, Lovage is a perennial plant belonging to the Apiaceae family that grows spontaneously in the Pyrenees.
It is thought to have been introduced to France by Benedictine monks, who recognized its calming properties. In fact, its name, levisticum, derives from the Latin word for relief. In Switzerland, lovage is often referred to as “Maggi herb”, after the brand’s aromatized cubes sold in stores. The root, which is distilled to extract the essential oil and hyrdolat, contains coumarin, starch, vitamin C and tannin. It is also particularly appreciated in detox for its phthalide content. This chemical compound promotes drainage and detoxification, making Lovage root an interesting natural treatment option.

When my liver is tired
My testimony Two years ago, I consulted my homeopath for various minor ailments. Arnold’s neuralgia in the neck and skull, difficulty digesting greasy meals, often pasty mouth, frequent frostbite on fingers and toes. Her diagnosis was “liver and gallbladder”. Although I had been told from time to time that I had a waxy complexion, which could indicate a liver “problem”, I had never thought that my neck pain or frostbite could be liver-related. I have to say that since I’ve been taking care...
