Rose Absolute (Bulgarian)

Extracted from the fresh petals of the Rosa damascena flower cultivated in Bulgaria, Zurma’s Rose Absolute is a highly concentrated botanical aromatic. Because fragile rose petals yield very little aromatic material through traditional steam distillation, solvent extraction is utilised to capture the complete olfactory profile of the plant. This precise extraction method produces a deep red to orange viscous liquid with a rich, complex, and deeply sweet floral aroma, underscored by subtle honey and mild spice notes. Within clinical aromatherapy and natural perfumery, Rose Absolute functions as a highly active botanical ingredient. It acts as an effective emotional balancer for the central nervous system and serves as an industry-standard middle note for anchoring fine botanical fragrances.

Skincare Ritual & Well-being Applications: The complex chemical profile of Bulgarian Rose Absolute is widely documented in clinical literature for its mild astringent (tissue-toning) and nervine (nervous system supporting) properties [1]. For targeted dermal support, diluting this absolute at 1% to 2% in a nourishing carrier oil provides a highly effective, soothing application for mature, dry, or reactive skin types, actively supporting the moisture retention of the stratum corneum (the outermost layer of the skin) [2]. For atmospheric application, diffusing 1–2 drops cultivates a deeply grounding environment; it serves as a reliable aromatic tool for reducing the physical manifestations of daily stress and harmonising emotional responses.

Zurma Essential & Absolute Oils - Highest Quality Pure and Natural

At Zurma we go to great lengths to ensure that we only sell the highest quality pure and natural essential oils. We have searched the world for the best essential oils. Our in-house quality control system ensures that this high standard is maintained for all our essential oils. Every essential oil comes with a Certificate of Analysis (COA) and Gas Chromatograph/Mass Spectrometer (GCMS) test to confirm that they are genuine and authentic essential oils containing their correct active constituents.

The only exception to this is with the New Zealand small scale essential oil producers we buy direct from e.g., Lavender, Mānuka, Kānuka, Tea Tree etc. This is because we know and trust these growers who distil their own essential oils.

Finally, all essential oils have to undergo our own in-house smell, appearance and feel test and if they are not up to our high standards, we simply send the product back to the supplier. Based on this quality control process we believe that the 100% Pure and Natural essential oils that Zurma supplies to our customers are of the highest quality and are excellent for use in aromatherapy.
