Ingredients:
An aqueous extraction of Rosa Damascena essential oil, preserved and standardised: aqua, Rose damascena oil, Citric acid (FG), Potassium sorbate (FG).
About Standard Essential Oils:
Standardised essential oils are produced to achieve a standard scent, whereas a single species essential oil may vary in scent because it is an individual plant species that can naturally vary with season, rainfall, soil quality, geography and a variety of other factors. Standardising the scent by combining multiple species is a method of producing an oil that will always be similar in quality. Standardised oils can therefore be quite beneficial when scent reliability is required.
Standardised essential oils are pure essential oils which have not been diluted, filled or altered in any way. The only differentiating factor between standardised essential oils and others is that multiple variations of plant species are distilled. -
