About the Rose

The Queen of All Flowers – and Gift of Heaven

Hardly any other healing plant has been used for skin care as much –and in so many ways –as the rose. The rose is regarded as the 'Queen of all Flowers' and the rose oil as a 'Gift of Heaven'. Since antiquity to present day, the rose beautified our planet, perfumed our gardens, warmed our hearts and nourished our souls. Rooted in myth and magic, all cultures alike, have revered the rose for its physical beauty and mesmerizing fragrance. Linked to Venus and Aphrodite and beloved by poets, painters and musicians, the rose became a symbol of love, romance, harmony and perfection. Apart from its beauty and symbolism roses were highly valued for their beautifying, uplifting, harmonizing, regenerative, and medicinal benefits and held a prominent place in traditional Eastern and Western medicine. Today, modern scientific studies increasingly confirm ancient traditional lore; in many cases, rose oil and rosewater live up to their traditional uses.

Striking in its beauty and exquisite fragrance, the rose has a strong affinity to femininity. Since antiquity, the most precious natural perfumes and most luxuriant skin and massaging oils of the past were crafted with oils, waters, and extracts of the rose. For reason of cost, pure distilled rose oils are rarely used in today’s skin care formulas and is replaced by synthetic rose compounds. But with our Rose organic skin care line we continue the long tradition of the past, capturing the pure beauty and spirit of the rose in all of our rose products. Our rose skin care line is created by Martina Gebhardt Naturkosmetik and produced according to the stringent biodynamic Demeter guidelines. All products received the prestigious Demeter certification.
