What is the difference between Bulgarian Rose Otto and Rose Absolute?
The Bulgarian Rose Otto is steam distilled and contains only the natural ingredients of the rose petals. Bulgarian Rose Otto lasts forever. A concum of Bulgarian Rose Otto produced in the 1940’s is today valued at over $US20,000 and is indeed a rare item. Rose Absolute is extracted using another method. Rose Absolute is extracted using solvent extraction, but the fragrance is more a true Rose fragrance than Rose Otto, though not nearly as potent or as precious. The best oil you can buy is Rose Otto.
