Hi everyone,

 

Recently I've had folks ask me why the alba rose hydrosol (and oil) is

more costly than the damacena rose hydrosol (and oil). There is in fact

a reason :)

 

It takes approximately 4 metric tons (4,000 kilograms or 8,820 pounds)

of handpicked, in the morning, Rosa damascena blossoms to produce one

kilogram (2.205 pounds) of Rose Otto.

 

Rosa alba is also handpicked in the morning only. It has an oil

production yield 40% LESS than that of the damascena variety. Also, it

is a much more rare variety of rose. Those two factors combined explain

why alba rose products are even costlier than those of the damascena rose.

 

Truly, the oils and floral waters from both varieties of these roses are

precious and rare delights that were once available to only royalty and

the wealthiest people in the world.

 

We " commoners " are very fortunate to live in an age where we can treat

ourselves and " take time to stop to smell the roses " at any time of the

day or night, year round!

 

In fact I'm going to go spritz myself with some right now! :)
