History

No other flower in history has been adored, exalted and revered as the rose.

Rose Oil was first discovered in 1582 in Persia at princess Nour-Djihan’s wedding feast. A canal circling the whole garden was dug and filled with rose-water. The bridal pair when rowing on the fragrant water observed the heat of the sun separating the water from the essential oil of the Rose. It was skimmed off and found to be the most exquisite perfume.

There are 3 main products produced obtained from roses: an essential oil (through steam distillation), a a concrète (by solvent extraction of flowers) and an absolute (further extracting the concrète)

Our Rose Maroc Absolute is obtained through solvent extraction which produces a more complete plant extract.

4,000 kg of rose flowers yield approximately 1kg of rose essential oil which explains the high price of Rose oil. The aroma of the Rose Moroc tends to be closer to the true scent of fresh roses due to the low temperatures used in the extraction process.
