Your philtrum is the groove above your top lip and between your nostrils; the narrow channel running vertically from the base of the nose to the edge of the center of the upper lip. No other primate has anything like it. No other primate mouth has evolved everted lips, with a dip in the center of the top one, creating what was once known romantically as the "cupids bow" shape.
The name derives from the Greek philtron, a potion used to excite love or passion. How the word transferred to an anatomical structure is not clear, but Gray's Anatomy refers to "the philtrum of the lip", suggesting at least the possibility of philtra elsewhere.

The Philtrum
The philtrum refers to the groove that most humans have above the upper lip. (Under the nose) The philtrum is also referred to as the infranasal depression. This portion of the human face is formed during embryonic development. While seemingly useless, the philtrum allows for extensive facial expressions, and it also allows humans to speak clearly and precisely.
