Where does Rose Essential Oil Come From?

Have you ever wondered how Rose essential oil is made?

doTERRA Rose Essential Oil is a true essential oil and not Rose Absolute. Rose Essential Oil is also known as Rose Otto. Rose Otto is obtained by steam distillation while Rose Absolute is made by solvent extraction and is thicker than Rose Otto.

Rose essential oil is steam distilled from Rose petals.

Can you guess how many Rose Petals it takes to make a 5ml bottle of Rose?

It takes an astonishing 10,000 rose blossoms to produce just 5 mL of Rose essential oil!

Because the petals are so delicate, the steam distillation process must happen the same day that the flower is harvested.

This is the reason Rose Essential Oil is one of the pricier essential oils. In order to make it more a more affordable option for most people, in addition to the 5ml essential oil, doTERRAhas packaged Rose in a pre-diluted roller that contains Rose essential oil and a carrier oil – fractionated essential oil.

doTERRA Rose contains the rare and pure Bulgarian Damask Rose essential oil, which beautifies the skin and balances emotions, making this exclusive oil a must-have for your beauty routine. Bulgarian Damas Rose is arguably the most prized and precious oil in the world.

There are hundreds of rose species in the world. The damask rose (Rose damascene) originates from Asia and is one of the most desirable roses, due to its superior fragrance, its scarcity, and its remarkable emotional benefits.
