Damask Rose Essential Oil (Rose Otto)

Damask rose is one of the most treasured botanical ingredients in fine perfumery, celebrated for its rich, complex floral fragrance. While rose essential oils are traditionally associated with Bulgaria and Turkey, areme's Damask rose comes from an unexpected origin: the highlands of Kenya, where roses are organically cultivated at approximately 2,600 meters above sea level. Steam-distilled in small batches from freshly harvested Rosa damascena flowers, this rare essential oil captures the delicate aromatic character of the blossoms. With Kenyan Damask rose essential oil still produced in limited quantities and relatively uncommon in the global market, it offers a distinctive alternative to more familiar rose origins. Its fragrance is elegantly floral and richly layered, yet surprisingly light and airy. Soft, fresh rose notes unfold into a delicate sweetness and subtle depth, creating a refined floral aroma that feels graceful rather than overpowering. This balance of richness and clarity gives Kenyan Damask rose its distinctive character. Particularly suited to personal care, Damask rose can be incorporated into luxurious facial and body oils when properly diluted in a carrier oil such as jojoba. Its soft floral fragrance adds an indulgent sensory element to evening skincare routines and quiet moments of relaxation. In fine perfumery, rose is a timeless ingredient, valued for the complexity, depth, and harmony it brings to floral compositions and sophisticated botanical fragr Sold on areme (https://areme.co.jp/products/damask-rose-essential-oil).
