ROSA ALBA (WHITE ROSE)
In the Rose Valley in Bulgaria, the oil-bearing flower ´Rosa Alba´ (the white rose) has been grown for more than 300 years. In its population there are petals with white, cream and slightly pink colors. They are extremely rich- up to 50 petals, and are significantly larger than those of Rosa Damascena. The aroma of Rosa Alba is extremely fresh and delicate, and intertwines with the aroma of Rosa Damascena, it makes our Bulgarian rose oil unique.
Rosa Alba contains less essential oil compared to Rosa Damascena (1 kg of rose oil is obtained from approximately 5,000 - 6,000 kg of flowers), therefore the price of Rosa Alba oil is twice as high as that of Rosa Damascena oil.
