| 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 |

While my all time favourite is rose otto, the damask rose is still beautiful, and more affordable.
One of the best priced rose absolute oils I've found. I use this a lot in my duffuser and in roller bottle blends it is great for grief & stress very soothing. I also use in in my face soap bars it is wonderful for my skin. Great to add a few drops to some epsom salts with lavender & chamomile for a relaxing bath that leaves your skin feeling so soft
Very calming and comforting!
It’s hard to go past the lush scent of gorgeous rose damascena... Uplifting and dreamy! Highly recommend this quality absolute in skin care formulas for its skin softening and calming effects.
Mmm delightful and smells just like the real thing.
