The rose, history's most beloved flower, has been the ultimate symbol of beauty and luxury for over 5,000 years. From the gardens of ancient Persia to the palaces of Egyptian queens, roses have adorned the hair of the world's most beautiful women, transforming simple hair care into an art form. Cleopatra famously filled her barge with rose petals and bathed in rose water, believing it held the secret to irresistible beauty and lustrous hair.
Ancient Persian manuscripts describe elaborate rose gardens where the finest Damask roses were cultivated specifically for beauty rituals. Persian queens would have their hair washed weekly with rose water distilled from thousands of petals, a practice so luxurious that it required entire gardens dedicated to beauty alone. The tradition spread along silk trade routes, making rose-infused hair treatments symbols of ultimate refinement across cultures.
In medieval Europe, rose water became so precious it was literally worth its weight in gold. Noble ladies would travel for days to obtain authentic Bulgarian rose water for their hair, believing that nothing else could provide the same lustrous softness and enchanting fragrance. Monasteries developed secret rose cultivation and distillation methods, creating hair treatments for royal courts across the continent.
The Ottoman Empire elevated rose cultivation to an art form, with the Sultan's gardens producing roses specifically for the imperial harem's beauty rituals. These roses, grown in the mineral-rich soil of Anatolia, were considered the finest in the world for hair care, creating treatments so effective that they became the standard by which all other luxury hair care was measured.
Rose brings timeless elegance to hair care through its unique combination of softening properties, calming aromatherapy, and luxurious sensory experience that transforms routine hair care into a ritual of beauty.

Traditionally, roses were processed into hair care through steam distillation to create precious rose water, oil infusion methods where fresh petals were layered with oils for weeks, and petal paste preparations where fresh roses were ground with milk or honey. The most luxurious treatments involved daily rose water rinses followed by rose oil applications, creating hair care rituals that were as much about beauty ceremony as hair health.
We source our roses from the legendary rose fields of Bulgaria's Valley of Roses, where Damask roses have been cultivated for centuries using traditional methods that produce the finest rose oil in the world. Our gentle extraction processes preserve both the therapeutic compounds and the exquisite fragrance that makes rose the ultimate luxury ingredient for hair care.
