Turkish Rose Absolute Co-op ~ One Week Only!

[Guest guest]

Chris, I am not all that used to AT bottle size, just

how big is this bottle? Pretty small right? Absolute

has a high water content and is therefore easy to

spoil, right? How long will this keep? Christina in

Hi Christina,

 

Yes, its a rather small bottle - the size bottle is the typical little

amber bottle that is about the size of a lady's pinky ... It is no doubt

one of those pricy and precious oils. But it smells SO good! I LOVE Rose

Otto, but Rose Absolute smells even more like a real rose! It is highly

prized in perfumery I personally believe they are both a must have in

the collection, each with their own place and purpose, but that is just

me - and I am a rose hoarding maniac *lol*

 

Absolutes shouldn't have a high water content. To make rose absolute the

flowers are placed into a sealed chamber where they are soaked in a

solvent bath which dissolves the plant material - including the

essential oils, fatty acids and the waxy parts of the plant matter. Then

the solvent is vacuum distilled off and what remains is called a

concrete. Then that concrete has pure alcohol added to it which

dissolves the aromatic material, while the non alcohol soluble material

(the fatty acids and waxes) will separate out and can then be filtered

easily. After that the alcohol is evaporated or vacuum distilled away

and what is left is the final product known as rose absolute.

 

It has a long shelf life if stored properly. I have some rose absolute

here that I've had for a couple years and it is still quite wonderful.

As with any volatile oil oxidation is its worst enemy, so one would want

to keep it stored with care like they would with any EO.

 

It is very concentrated and should be used well diluted. This 3 ml

bottle will make 30 ml of Rose Absolute 10% and that is a LOT of Rose

Oil to play with.
