WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF ROSE OIL

The Rose has been appreciated throughout history since ancient times in Greece, China, India, Persia and Roman Empire.The Chinese had been growing roses for thousands of years, some records of rose cultivation date back to the 11th century BC. Some of these roses began to reach Europe in the late 18th century.  The aromatic value of the rose is highly regarded in perfumery, where it gives a penetrating and long lasting sweet note to compositions. The complex floral and exotic scent of rose has been seen as feminine, though in the Eastern cultures, both men and women use this fine fragrance by itself. Wearing rose would show the social rank of the person; in the early times  the nobles, royalty and the affluent were the only ones who could afford to wear rose scent. Rose oil is also used as an emollient in skin care, and is appreciated for its mind calming and spiritually uplifting quality in aroma therapeutic applications.
