Regal Rose Otto Essential Oil is a steam distilled divination from the Valley of Roses in Bulgaria and has been an integral ingredient in skincare preparations for centuries, including in many of our Living Libations. Beyond its angelic aroma and ethereal vibrations, Rose Otto is the most precious, sought-after, and beneficially potent oil of any rose variety. Divine grace for beauty and face, radiant rose revives every filament of our being with its elegant essence.

It takes sixty roses to make one drop of Rose Otto Essential Oil! The ‘otto’ in Rose Otto, refers to it being a steam distillation. This is the only type of Rose essence one wants to use in skincare. All other Rose oils are absolutes and those are best for perfumes and blends. Soothing to the heart and smoothing to the appearance of fine lines, scars and skin tone, it is a key ally in skin rejuvenation, inviting balance to body and face. The most restorative and superlative for skincare, rose otto adds resiliency to complexions.

Organic Ingredients

100% rose otto (Rosa damascena) essential oil.

“I ask the rose, where did you get such skin?
She laughs. How could she answer?
She is drunk, but not enough to say secrets
Wander with drunks if you want to know what they have been hiding.”
∼ Rumi

“If its replenishing and ritual uses throughout history are any indication, the amazing wealth
of its diverse compounds never fail to interface with the psychosomatic network of man and woman…
Quality: Only the true Rosa Damascena from Bulgaria is convincingly sublime in every single year.”
∼ Kurt Schnaubelt, Advanced Aromatherapy

“This is one of the oldest (and most expensive) of the essential oils; roughly 4,400 pounds of rose blossoms
are needed to produce a single pound of essential oil. [It is] widely used in perfumery and cosmetics
both to improve the fragrance bouquet and for the soothing properties to mind and skin.”
∼ Robert S. McDaniel, Katherine J. McDaniel, Soap Maker’s Workshop: The Art and Craft of Natural Handmade Soap
