Why Bulgaria and Why Solvent Extraction
Bulgarian rose heritage
Bulgaria is one of the most respected origins for rose materials, known for producing deeply aromatic rose products with rich floral body, soft sweetness, and refined petal complexity.
Solvent extracted richness
Solvent extraction helps capture the heavier, more voluptuous aromatic compounds of rose petals, creating a concentrated absolute with excellent depth, strength, and lasting floral character.
Aromatic Profile and Blending Character
- Overall profile: rich floral, rose petal, honeyed, warm, elegant
- Supporting facets: soft green nuance, gentle sweetness, velvety depth, romantic floral body
- Blend role: middle note that adds luxury, softness, and strong floral identity
- Best approach: use sparingly to lift floral blends, soften woods and resins, or add a premium rose signature to skincare and fragrance formulas
