About Our Rose Damascena Essential Oil
Rosa damascena oil is cultivated in the famous Bulgarian Valley of the Roses, where Rose Otto has been produced for centuries. Half of the world's authentic Rose oil (1.5 - 2 tonnes) is produced in Bulgaria. Right now is the time of the year where the buds are collected early in the morning to be distilled for this years harvest.
Cohobation
The so-called Rose Otto is the essential oil, steam distilled from the flowers of Rosa damascena. The Rose flowers are distilled quickly after harvesting. Distilling Roses demands considerable experience. It is common practice to redistill the distillation waters. This is referred to as cohobation process. The yield of cohobation oil is several times higher than that from the first direct distillation of the flowers.
The phenyl ethyl alcohol in Rose Otto almost exclusively comes from the cohobation waters.
Rose oil contains a fair amount of natural waxes called stearoptene, which are partially carried over in the distillation process. Because of these waxy components, true Rose oil tends to solidify at lower temperatures. Mildly warming the bottle to room temperature simply by holding it in the hand will return the oil to liquid form.
Other main components are commonly known odorants such as, geraniol, nerol, citronellol linalool, phenyl ethyl alcohol and farnesol.
Composition and Properties
Rose oil is most desired for its sublime fragrance which almost lets us forget the many highly therapeutic propertise of this precious essential oil. The unparalleled complexity of its composition explains its huge spectrum of therapeutic values, ranging from physical over emotional to spiritual.
