Rosa Damascena Flower Oil (Rose Oil)

Rosa damascena

Rose oil has an evocative flowery and delicate fragrance. It tones and soothes the skin and helps to rebalance skin tone, restoring radiance and elasticity. It is also thought to be astringent, reducing the appearance of broken capillaries.

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 for centuries to fragrance and heal scars. The scent of rose is used by aromatherapists to restore inner balance and is considered by some to be an aphrodisiac.

This fragrant rose oil is distilled from the fragrant petals of Turkish roses. Since 2005, we have partnered with a family-run business that works with around 2,000 local farmers to harvest Damask roses and produce our rose oil.
