How it works

Roses are a symbol of beauty and love, but stopping to smell them can actually make you more beautiful.

Inhalation of roses' main components (phenylethyl alcohol, citronellol and geraniol) produces an anxiolytic effect by increasing serotonin levels and decreasing glucocorticoid levels (Lizarraga-Valderrama, 2020). This produces a calming effect thus providing emotional space for self-love.

How is it extracted?

The picking of dew-drenched roses are starts in the early morning at 4am and ends because by 10am, 50% of the rose oil remains after evaporation under the sun.

Rose oil extracted is extremely precious as it takes over 2000 freshly picked rose blossoms to produce just one 1 ml of rose essential oil.

A randomised controlled trial done in 2014, had also shown that the scent of rose improves sleep quality by reducing sleep disturbances (Hajibagheri et al., 2014). These findings had shown the relaxing effect of the rose oil by decreasing glucocorticoid levels, which can be used to relief effects caused by depression and stress in humans (Hongratanaworakit, 2009).

Recent studies also show that the volatile organic compound in rose can result in enhancing skin OR2AT4 olfactory receptor too, reducing stress-induced skin fatigue which can result in a beautifying effect (Duroux et al., 2020)
