Rose Bulgarian Oil








rose Rosa damascene Rose Bulgarian oil is essential oil made from the steam distillation of rose petals and is known as rose otto or attar of roses. It takes about 10,000 pounds of flowers to make 1 pound of oil, or 60,000 roses to make 30 ml or 1 ounce of oil. Fresh flowers are picked before 8 AM.

Rose absolute oil is essential oil made by solvent extraction of the petals.

Rosa comes from the Greek roden, meaning “red,” as the ancient rose was thought to have been crimson. In myth, the rose was supposed to have sprung from the blood of Adonis (some accounts say Venus). Although the oil is obliquely referred to in the ancient Indian Ayruvedas and is mentioned by Homer in the Iliad, the first known rose oil distilleries existed in the year 1612 in Shiraz, part of Persia.
