Pure Essential Oil | Pelargonium graveolens

Rose Geranium Essential Oil is a steam-distilled essential oil obtained from the leaves and stems of Pelargonium graveolens, used in perfumery to provide rosy-floral freshness with green and softly herbal facets. It bridges floral and aromatic families, offering lift, balance, and natural sweetness.

Rose Geranium presents a fresh floral profile with clear rose-like tones layered over green, slightly minty, and gently herbaceous nuances. Compared to true rose materials, it is brighter and more aromatic, with a lightly citrusy lift and a clean, leafy backbone. It adds clarity and diffusion while retaining a natural floral warmth.

Rose Geranium functions primarily as a heart note, supporting floral structure and freshness.

Recommended concentration: 0.2–5%

Particularly effective in:
Floral bouquets and rose accords
Green-floral and aromatic compositions
Chypres and fougères needing floral lift

Blends well with
Rose materials, jasmine, and muguet
Citrus notes (bergamot, lemon)
Woods (cedarwood, sandalwood)
Musks and soft resins

Suitable for non-perfumery applications including soaps, body products, candles, and home fragrance

It provides a cost-effective, versatile floral element that adds realism and balance.
