ROSE ABSOLUTE – 100% PURE Rose Damascena – 2ml Vial

Description

Rose Damascene has a deep, rosy, fresh aroma. Rose is a tender, uplifting and soothing oil and is the first choice for perfumery. Rose is also one of the best essential oils to use in skincare. Rosa damascene (also known as the damask rose) and Rosa centifolia are the two main species of rose used in the production of rose essential oil. Most Rose Absolute is obtained from the damask rose which is widely cultivated in Bulgaria, Turkey, Iran, India, Russia and China.

Rose Absolute is obtained by solvent extraction, whereas rose Otto is obtained by steam distillation. Due to the low temperatures used in the extraction process (compared to steam distillation), the aroma of Rose Absolute tends to be closer to the true scent of fresh rose than Rose Otto. Rose Absolute is therefore often used in the manufacture of perfumes and cosmetics.  Rose oil commands a high price as the extraction process requires up to several thousand pounds of rose petals to obtain a single ounce of oil. The production process is also very labour-intensive, with harvesting of the flowers done by hand before sunrise and processing completed on the same day.

Although it is expensive, Rose is one of the best all-purpose essential oils for your collection. Rose is a tender, uplifting and soothing oil. Rose is also one of the best essential oils to use in your perfume and skincare creations.
