Antiseptic: Thanks to its content of epizizanal and related compounds, vetiver water inhibits the growth of microbes such as Staphylococcus aureus, making it useful for preventing septic conditions in hot and humid environments1.
Sedative: Widely used in aromatherapy, vetiver water helps relieve stress, anxiety, headaches, neuralgia, muscle pain, and insomnia. Its rubefacient properties also make it beneficial for easing pain from arthritis and rheumatism1.
Refrigerant: As a natural cooling agent, vetiver water helps lower body temperature and provides relief during fevers caused by heat exposure1.
Fixative: Its unique chemical profile and high solubility in alcohol make vetiver water an excellent natural fixative for the perfumery industry, enhancing the longevity and depth of fragrance blends1.
Flavoring Agent: Vetiver water is used to flavor refreshing drinks and culinary dishes, adding a distinctive aromatic note1.
