rose oil

Petal-derived fragrance

Rose oil is an essential oil extracted from rose petals, prized in perfumery and aromatherapy.

Production requires enormous quantities of flowers—thousands of petals for a single ounce—making it among the most expensive essential oils: The perfume's base note is Bulgarian rose oil.

Also called attar of roses.
