Turkish Rose Otto Absolute

Turkish rose otto absolute, also known as rose oil or rose essential oil, is a highly esteemed natural essence extracted from the petals of one of several varieties of rose, commonly the Rosa damascena. This variety is primarily cultivated in Turkey, a region renowned for its prolific rose gardens, particularly around the city of Isparta, contributing to its unique characteristics.

The process of extraction is meticulous, involving steam distillation, which painstakingly yields a highly concentrated and fragrant oil. This results in an essence that is less intense than absolutes, which are extracted using solvent methods, but still rich in aroma. The scent profile of Turkish rose otto absolute is profoundly complex and deeply floral. It famously features a rich, sweet, and sumptuous floral aroma that's layered with subtle hints of honey and a green, slightly spicy undertone. Its luxurious and enveloping fragrance makes it widely sought after in perfumery, where it is prized for both its scent and its emotional uplift properties. Turkish rose otto is also celebrated in aromatherapy for its purported benefits, including mood enhancement and relaxation.
