About
A gentle floral water distilled from Rosa multiflora (multiflora rose). Traditional, well-tolerated, with minor fragrance-allergen caveats.
Rosa multiflora flower water is the aqueous by-product of steam-distilling multiflora rose blossoms. It is predominantly water with trace amounts of rose volatiles — geraniol, citronellol, linalool, phenylethyl alcohol — at low ppm levels. Well-tolerated on most skin types at typical hydrosol use levels (often 5-20% of the water phase). The main declarable concern is the presence of EU-listed fragrance allergens at concentrations that may trigger labeling depending on total product composition. No dedicated SCCS opinion; rose hydrosols broadly have a long tradition of safe cosmetic use. Botanical variability (supplier, harvest) is typical.
