Damask Rose Absolute is a highly concentrated, aromatic extract from Rosa damascena, valued in perfumery for its fresh petal-like scent and depth. Produced by solvent extraction and winterization of rose concrete, it contains major alcohols like phenethyl alcohol, citronellol, and geraniol, along with trace compounds that enhance realism and diffusion. Its quality depends on terroir, harvest, and processing parameters, and careful GC/MS analysis ensures authenticity.
