Origin and Description: For centuries the rose has been used in cosmetics, medicines and perfumes by the ancient Greeks, Romans and Arabs. We've all heard how Cleopatra used rose petals in her bath.

The rose was one of the very first plants to be distilled and is thought to have originally come from Central Asia


Part of Plant Used: Oil is steam distilled from rose petals. It amazingly takes 180 pounds of rose petals to make just 1 oz of essential oil which I guess explains why it's not the cheapest oil to buy.
