Rose Hydrosol

Rosa damascena

Make sure to check your rose water is a hydrosol as many commercially prepared waters are not true hydrosol; they may contain synthetic fragrance or alcohol and are not suitable for therapeutic purposes. Rose hydrosol balanced the emotions and female hormones. It promotes relaxation and is helpful for menstrual symptoms and stress.

Rosa hydrosol has a deep, powerful aroma while the centifolia roses have a sweet, delicate aroma.
