The Natural Flower Waters from the Bulgarian Rose Co. are specifically distilled from fresh plant material utilizing proprietary technologies. They are unique products resulting from the tradition and specialization of the company.

- NOT HYDROLATS obtained as a byproduct from essential oil distillation.
The standard practice Some up to 4% of ethyl alcohol is added during the distillation process and it serves to achieve better emulsification of the oil and to some extend for preserving of the finished product. Shelf life: 24 months.

The preservatives The type of preservative is determined by the customer depending on the regulations in the destination country and the application of the product – cosmetics and skin application or internal application. The preservatives do not affect the quality of the flower water; do not change the aroma, color, or content of the biologically active components.
