| Rose oil is one of the most beloved essential oils. It’s also one of the most expensive as the petals need to be carefully handpicked and 30 roses produce only 1 drop of essential oil – that’s around 600 roses to make a single ml! Rose Otto is steam distilled and has a lower yield thus is more expensive than Rose Absolute which uses solvent extraction to yield a higher amount of oil. A word of caution: Rose oil is in high demand for perfumery and skincare. Unfortunately, there is huge temptation for less scrupulous operators to adulterate oils. A good indication is the price - if it sounds too good to be true, it more than likely is. Nature/Essence – Sweet & Loving |

I used to buy rose absolute out of Europe but delighted to find a more local source of supply here in NZ. Very consistent with scent characteristics of Bulgarian damask rose. I mix a wee bit with rose maroc for a more rounded, fruity scent.
I prefer this authentic and natural rose smell than the strong rose smell in the perfume or rose products in the market. It is thicker than I expected when I used dropper to take it.
Smells like real roses i love this
This product smells absolutely amazing and a little goes a long way!
Nice
