HOW TO USE
The Bulgarian rose extract is fairly solid at room temperature and must be heated to 57c before it melts. To do this we reccomend that you put the bottle into the small pinch seal bag provided and submerge in hot water (not boiling) Boil some water then leave to cool for approx 5-10 mins before using or use a thermometer to check water temp. We recommend that you do this only once and dilute accordingly in a carrier oil for later use or at least keep the heating to a minimum in order to maximize shelf life of the oil.
The aroma of the oil is powerful and characteristic of fresh roses, the flavour is strong, sweet, and somewhat honey-like. Guenther The Essential Oils Volume V Krieger Publishing Company, Malabar, Florida.
