Damask Rose

La Plante

Nom Latin: Rosa Damascena

Partie de la plante: Flower

Origine: Bulgaria

Known and used since the Middle Ages for its medicinal virtues, the Damask Rose is a precious rose reserved for noble uses. The Damask Rose is a bush of the Rosaceae family, similar to the wild rose. Its full, pink flowers are found in Syria, Turkey, Bulgaria, Morocco and Russia, on sandy or rocky soils. At Essenciagua, we work with the Layzangan Distillery in Iran.
Queen of flowers, the Rose is the embodiment of perfection and beauty. Its fragrance is complete and harmonious. Since ancient times, the Damask Rose has been known for its bewitching fragrance, embodying beauty and perfection. Roses must be picked by hand using age-old know-how. At the height of the season, between May and June, pickers rise at the crack of dawn: the flower must be harvested between five and nine in the morning, before the heat destroys its delicate essence. It is then distilled within 24 hours, so as not to lose its fragrance. The low yield of essential oil from this flower means it should be used sparingly and delicately. In synergy with other essential oils, it sublimates the skin and perfumes it deliciously. It can also be used in emotional blends. Not to be outdone, Damask Rose Hydrosol is also the perfect ally for the skin and face.
