Rose Essential Oil
Rosa damascena / Rosa centifolia
Timeless Elegance for Skin, Soul & Senses
Steam-distilled from hand-picked rose petals, this exquisite oil is a jewel of aromatherapy, rich in citronellol, geraniol, and phenyl ethanol—compounds revered for their aphrodisiac, anti-aging, and mood-lifting properties. A single drop carries the essence of thousands of petals, offering:
- Skin: Hydration, redness reduction, and collagen-boosting for mature, dry, or sensitive skin.
- Aromatherapy: Eases stress, uplifts mood, and enhances emotional balance.
- Rituals: A luxurious addition to perfumes, bath blends, or meditation practices.
Always dilute (0.5–1% in carrier oils) due to potency. Shelf-stable for 3–5 years; store in a cool, dark place.
Lyddies Botanics’ Note: Ethically sourced from organic rose fields in Bulgaria’s Valley of Roses, where petals are harvested at dawn to preserve their volatile oils. Unadulterated and bottled in violet glass to protect its delicate chemistry. A symbol of love, purity, and timeless beauty. 🌹
