More Information:

Roses and rose oil have a vast number of therapeutic applications and more are emerging through ongoing research. Besides its role as a major ingredient of perfumery, rose oil has a history of medicinal use dating back at least five thousand years, yet some of rose oil's most important constituents have only been discovered recently.

Venerated throughout the ages for its beauty and healing properties in both perfumery and medicine, Rose is a classic sight and scent that offers universal sentiment of not only love, but also a deep well-being emanating from the heart. The tenderness and care we must apply to our loving relationships must also be taken in regard to preparing Rose for use as perfume or medicine. Roses must be harvested before sunrise, ideally after a night basking in the light of the full moon, at a time when both luscious scent and healing qualities are at their height, and carefully prepared in order to produce the most potent scents and powerful healing gifts.

It requires 1,400,000 handpicked rose blossoms to produce a liter of rose oil. A single ounce of rose oil contains the essence of 40,000 rose blossoms, and sixty-seven rose blossoms give only one drop of rose oil. If we remember these numbers as we inhale the precious rose perfume, we will naturally feel a sense of gratitude toward all those who have labored hard to bring us such a treasure. Roses and rose oil have a long history of symbolic association with love, devotion, passion and spirituality, a paradox expressed by its sensual flower protected by thorns. Sacred scents such as rose essential oil are evocative of spiritual and sensual  moods have always been used for their uplifting effects on the heart and emotions.

Ayurvedic medicine considers rose oil tri-doshic (good for all body types), and uses rose oil for supporting a healthy inflammatory response, either as a single remedy or prepared with other herbs or minerals. An infusion of rose petals is a mild remedy for pitta. Praval Pisthi is a cooling compound prepared by combining rose oil with pearl powder and then exposing the mixture to the rays of the full moon.
