Rose Absolute Essential Oil Pure Bulgarian

The Queen of Flowers, in her most concentrated and exquisite form. A single drop of Bulgarian Rose Absolute is worth a thousand words.

Valley of the Moon's Rose Absolute is produced from Rosa damascena, derived from the fresh petals of the Damask Rose, sourced from Bulgaria. It takes approximately 650 kilos of fresh rose petals to produce just one kilo of Bulgarian Rose Absolute, making it one of the most precious and labor-intensive oils in the world. Preferred by perfumers over Rose Otto for its richer, more intensely fragrant character, Rose Absolute has been valued throughout recorded history for its heart-opening, relaxing, and aphrodisiac qualities.
