Rose Oil Bulgarian From Rosa Damascena CAS 90106-38-0 Bulk Wholesale from Xi’an Taima Biological Co., Ltd
Product Introduction
Rose oil extracted from Rosa Damascena Mill. (Damask Rose) is one of the most prized and valuable essential oils in the world, often referred to as the “Queen of Essential Oils.” With a history spanning over 1,500 years in perfumery, medicine, and cosmetics, rose oil commands the highest price per kilogram among all essential oils due to the enormous quantity of rose petals required for production — approximately 3,000 to 5,000 kilograms of fresh Rosa Damascena petals yield just 1 kilogram of rose otto oil through steam distillation.

FAQ
FAQ 1: What is the difference between rose otto oil and rose absolute?
Rose otto is produced by steam distillation and has a fresh, light, true rose aroma with 1-5% PEA. Rose absolute is solvent-extracted and has a deeper, honey-like, tenacious aroma with 20-35% PEA. Rose otto is preferred for aromatherapy and fine perfumery; rose absolute is ideal for perfume bases and body care products. Both share CAS 90106-38-0, though rose absolute may also be listed under 8007-01-0.
FAQ 2: How much rose oil should I use in skincare formulations?
For facial serums and creams, a typical usage level is 0.1-1.0% rose oil (1-10 ml per liter). For body lotions, use 0.05-0.5%. Always blend rose oil into the oil phase of your formulation or dilute in a carrier oil first. Conduct a patch test for sensitivity before full-scale production.
FAQ 3: Can you provide organic certified rose oil?
Yes, we offer USDA NOP and EU Organic certified rose oil (Grade RO-ORG). Organic certification covers the entire supply chain from cultivation (no synthetic pesticides/fertilizers) through extraction, packaging, and storage. Full organic certificate documentation is provided with each order.
FAQ 4: How can I verify the authenticity of your rose oil?
Every batch comes with: (1) Full GC-MS chromatogram with component identification, (2) GC-FID quantitative report, (3) Chiral GC analysis verifying natural enantiomeric ratios (R-(-)-citronellol vs S-(+)-citronellol), (4) Adulteration screening for synthetic additives. We also welcome third-party testing at SGS, Eurofins, or your designated laboratory.
FAQ 5: What is the minimum order quantity (MOQ)?
For evaluation and sample purposes, we offer as low as 100 ml per grade. For commercial orders, MOQ is 1 kg. For bulk industrial orders, we offer volume discounts starting at 5 kg, 25 kg, and 100 kg+ tiers. Custom specifications may have different MOQ requirements.
FAQ 6: Why does my rose otto oil crystallize at room temperature?
Crystallization (stearoptene formation) is a completely natural phenomenon of genuine rose otto oil. The stearoptene fraction consists of natural paraffin hydrocarbons (nonadecane, heneicosane) that solidify below 18-20°C. This is actually an authenticity marker — synthetic rose oils do not crystallize. Simply warm the bottle gently to 25-30°C to re-liquefy. Quality is not affected.
