Rose oil, particularly Rose Absolute, has a very distinct and complex aroma. According to fragrance experts at Alpha Aromatics, this oil closely mimics the scent of a real rose and is described as being:
- Very Rich: The fragrance is full-bodied and not faint.
- Deep: It has a profound and layered scent profile.
- Sweetly Floral: The primary scent is reminiscent of fresh flowers, with a strong sweetness.
- Slightly Spicy: There is a subtle spiciness that adds to the complexity.
- Honey-like: A warm and honeyed note is present, contributing to its overall richness.
The Rose Absolute oil, derived via solvent extraction, offers a fragrance so genuine to the flower that it is highly valued in perfume creation. Its reddish color further distinguishes it from other types of rose oil. The unique combination of floral, sweet, spicy and honeyed notes contributes to the highly sought after scent profile.
