Did You Know?
Did you know that it takes 60,000 fresh roses (200 pounds) to make one ounce of rose essential oil? That equals 30 roses for every single drop!
It's no wonder that rose essential oil is so expensive. To offset the high costs, many suppliers dilute the essential oil by mixing it with less expensive rose geranium essential oil. When purchasing the oil, you will want to make sure that you are buying it from a reputable supplier (like Mountain Rose Herbs). Even though the precious essential oil is expensive, a little goes a long way and it smells absolutely divine!
