Rose Hydrosol Set (Rosa Damascena)
- Three origins of one rose, Rosa × damascena. Moroccan, Bulgarian and Turkish rose hydrosol, all steam-distilled floral water of the Damask rose.
- A hydrosol, not a steeped rose water. A hydrosol is distilled water, not petals left to steep, and the FAQ walks through how rose hydrosol differs from rose water. What's the difference.
- A fine mist, used undiluted. Mist it over the face, linens or a room; it's water-based, so there's no dilution to add and it's for external use only. See how it's used.
- Third-party tested. An outside lab checks each hydrosol for synthetics and adulteration.
- One we use ourselves. Like everything we sell, we use this rose hydrosol too.
- Three roses to compare side by side. The set puts Morocco, Bulgaria and Turkey next to each other, one species from three regions.

6 benefits of Rose Hydrosol Set
A facial mist to cool and refresh
A facial mist of rose hydrosol leaves the skin feeling cool and refreshed, with a light rose scent that settles fast. It goes on as a fine spray and reads as fresh rose, not a heavy perfume. The mist is the whole point.
A light rose spray for linens and a room
Misted across sheets, towels and the air, rose hydrosol leaves a light rose freshness, nowhere near as loud as a fragranced room spray. A few passes over a pillow or a curtain are plenty. The scent is soft and fades clean.
A cool mist for warm days
Chilled first, rose hydrosol turns into a cool rose mist that suits a hot afternoon. The cold makes the spray feel crisper as it lands. It's the same soft rose, only colder.
Bulgarian rose from the Valley of Roses
Bulgarian rose hydrosol comes from the Valley of Roses in Bulgaria, where Rosa × damascena has grown for generations. It is the same Damask rose as the other two, distilled to a floral water. In the set it stands for one of the rose's long-standing homes.
Turkish rose from Isparta
Isparta, in Turkey, is the source of the Turkish bottle, a region known for its rose-oil production. Like the others it is Rosa × damascena, a floral water and nothing more. It gives the set its Turkish origin.
Moroccan rose, the third in the set
The third origin is Morocco, where the Moroccan rose in the set is grown and distilled. It rounds out a set built to hold one rose from three regions side by side. No bottle is ranked above another; they are three origins of one Damask rose.
How to use
On the face
Facial mistMist rose hydrosol a few inches from clean skin, used undiluted, and keep it away from the eyes. It needs no carrier and no dilution, since the water does the work. While the skin is still damp you can follow with a facial oil if you use one.
Linens and the air
Room and linen spraySpray rose hydrosol over sheets, towels or into a room for a light rose scent. A few passes are plenty, and it will not stain fabric the way an oil can. This is for external use only, a mist for skin, linen and air, and it's not for internal use.
Chilled for a cool mist
Storage and a cooling refreshKeep a bottle in the fridge and it doubles as a cool spray for hot days. Store rose hydrosol cool and out of direct light. Give it a quick sniff before use, and if the scent or the clarity turns, let the bottle go. On sensitive skin, patch test on the inner forearm and wait a day before wider use.
