Fragrance: Beautiful, gentle scent of roses. Flowery, soft, warm, feminine. This wonderful rose oil originates from the province of Kerman in the south of Iran. On the slopes of the Lalehzar mountains at around 2000-3000 meters above sea level, the damascene roses are cultivated by hundreds of peasants and distilled by the cooperative down in the valley. The cooperative has made a name for itself because the cultivation of roses created a substitute for the cultivation of poppy and thus continues to guarantee a solid income for the peasants. They also participate in the profits of the rose distillery. A nice anecdote: The mash of the rose distillation which used to be a waste product, is now being pressed into the shape of bricks and dried in the sun to be finally used for log burning. The “Queen of flowers”. For just a few drops of this precious essential oil, 30 roses are required! The rose oil improves dry, tender skin and has skin-regenerating and rejuvenating qualities.
