Rose Damascena Absolute — 10 ml

Introduction
Rose Damascena Absolute is one of the most precious and iconic floral extracts in perfumery, obtained from the delicate petals of the Damask rose. With a rich, intoxicating, and sensual aroma , it combines deep floral sweetness with honeyed, spicy, and slightly green nuances. While rose essential oil (otto) is produced by steam distillation, Rose Absolute (solvent extraction) captures the full-bodied, warm, and enduring essence of the flower. Revered as the “Queen of Flowers” ​​, Rose Damascena Absolute has been cherished in perfumery, skincare, and spiritual practices for centuries. At Herbsmetics, we feature Rose Damascena Absolute in our Perfume & Aromatherapy Workshops in Phuket , where guests experience its luxurious depth and timeless romance .
