Sometimes all your skin needs is stillness, water… and one drop of rose.But not just any rose — the Bulgarian Damask rose, which blooms only a few weeks a year, in the quiet of morning, before the sun rises over the Valley of Roses.
Rose oil from Bulgaria is more than a fragrance —it’s a concentrate of care, ritual, tenderness, and breath in a single bottle.
🌸 Why Bulgarian Rose?
In Bulgaria, roses are harvested by hand at sunrise, when their petals are richest in essential oils.
It takes more than 3,000 petals to make just 1 ml of oil.
True Rose Otto is steam distilled — no alcohol, no synthetics.
It’s used in high-end perfumes (Guerlain, Dior, Byredo), but rarely available pure.
Bulgaria is the only country where rose oil quality is geographically protected and certified.
💧 What Can One Drop Do?
Soothes sensitive skin
Reduces redness and stress
Moisturizes without stickiness
Safe for babies (when diluted)
Can be added to oils, creams, toners, or baths
And above all — makes every ritual deeper, softer, more beautiful
🧴 How to Use It
For the face:Mix 1 drop of rose oil into 1 tsp of a carrier oil (jojoba, almond) and apply to damp skin after toner.
For a bath:Blend 2–3 drops with milk or honey, then stir into warm bathwater — like bathing in a morning garden.
For aromatherapy:1 drop on your wrist or in a diffuser — calms the senses, grounds the body, lifts the mood.
For hair:Mix with coconut or argan oil and apply to ends — the scent stays for hours.
