Rose

The rose has been prized for its beauty and perfume for centuries and was highly regarded for its gentle medicinal qualities. Rose oil is gentle enough to use on babies and children. Rose essential oil is produced from the plant’s fresh flowers through steam distillation. The main method of extraction is by enfleurage, a labor-intensive and expensive method that requires huge quantity of petals to yield a small amount of sticky substance known as an absolute. Steam-distilling more than 60,000 Fresh picked rose will yield only one ounce of rose oils.
