Aromatically, Rosewood Essential Oil has a subtle, yet surprisingly sweet, woody, fruity aroma with a floral quality to it. I don’t typically refer to wood oils as “beautiful” oils, but this certainly is a beautifully aromatic oil that holds a dear place in holistic aromatherapy as well as natural perfumery.
Rosewood Essential Oil is a versatile oil that blends well with other wood, citrus, spice, herbaceous and floral oils, but it should be used sparingly and with respect because it is in short supply.
