Benefits
Natural
Rose absolute is used for its soothing and toning properties on the skin. Its evocative, delicate fragrance lifts the mood and is thought to be closest to the smell of a fresh rose.
There are more than 16,000 varieties of rose in the world today, but the Damask rose is one of the most ancient, widely grown variety. Thought to be native to the Middle East, rose water and rose oil were used to fragrance for centuries.
The scent of rose is used by aromatherapists to restore calm and is considered by some to be an aphrodisiac.
