Some 60,000 of the world’s finest Roses are needed to distill a single ounce of this precious Rose Oil. Our Bulgarian “Damask” Rose has been cultivated since the 16th Century - its aroma full, rich and intoxicating. In addition to its uplifting aromatic qualities, when used on the skin it hydrates with an astringent effect that is cooling, while providing a healthy protective barrier from bacteria and the environment. No other Essential Rose Oil can equal our Bulgarian, which is why we use it with abundance throughout our entire Skin Care Line.
