What is ETHERNAL Damask Rose Oil?

ETHERNAL Damask Rose Oil is a small-batch infusion made from Rosa damascena petals macerated in jojoba and sweet almond oil. Seventy percent of the formulation is rose petals, gathered from the Valley of Roses in Morocco. Nothing else is added. The petals are not distilled, not extracted, not processed. They are held in the oil until the oil carries their full intelligence: their antioxidants, their vitamins, their fragrance, their frequency.

Where are ETHERNAL's roses sourced, and where is the oil made?

ETHERNAL's Rosa damascena petals are sourced from Morocco, specifically from the Valley of Roses, the Dadès Valley, where the Damask Rose has been cultivated for generations. The infusion is crafted on the Mediterranean coast of Spain, where the petals are slowly macerated in jojoba and sweet almond oil over time.

How many rose petals are in each bottle?

ETHERNAL uses approximately seventy Rosa damascena petals per milliliter of oil. The 10ml Perfume Oil contains the infusion of approximately 700 petals. The 30ml Signature Oil contains approximately 2,100 petals. The 50ml Atelier Oil contains approximately 3,500 petals.

What is the difference between ETHERNAL Damask Rose Infusion Oil and a rose essential oil?

ETHERNAL Damask Rose Oil is a whole-petal infusion, while rose essential oil is produced through steam distillation or solvent extraction. Distillation isolates aromatic compounds but can alter or lose many of the rose's more delicate fat-soluble nutrients. ETHERNAL is a full petal infusion: whole Rosa damascena petals, slowly macerated in carrier oils until they have released their complete profile of vitamins, polyphenols, flavonoids, antioxidants, and living frequency into the oil.

What is the difference between rose oil and rosehip oil?

Rose oil comes from the petals of Rosa damascena and is rich in antioxidants, fat-soluble vitamins, polyphenols, and fragrant living compounds. Rosehip oil is pressed from the seeds of the rose fruit, carries no floral fragrance, and is known for its fatty acid content. ETHERNAL is a rose petal infusion, not a rosehip oil.

Why is authentic Damask Rose Infusion Oil expensive?

ETHERNAL uses approximately seventy Rosa damascena petals per milliliter of oil, requiring thousands of whole petals for every bottle. The roses are gathered in the Valley of Roses in Morocco during a brief seasonal harvest at peak bloom. The cold infusion method is slow: whole petals are macerated patiently over time. Authentic Rosa damascena contains more than 300 natural compounds and has never been fully replicated synthetically.

How should I use ETHERNAL Damask Rose Oil?

Begin in prayer pose. Warm two to three drops between your palms, rubbing them together to generate heat. Inhale slowly and let the fragrance of the rose arrive first. Apply from the neck upward across the face, or downward across the body, with slow and intentional touch. The oil absorbs fully and leaves no residue, only a quiet luminosity and the living scent of the rose.

Can ETHERNAL Damask Rose Oil be used on the face?

Yes. The 30ml Signature Oil and 50ml Atelier Oil are formulated for both face and body application. The infusion is carried in jojoba and sweet almond oil, both widely used in facial skincare for their compatibility with the skin barrier. Begin with a small amount and observe how your skin responds.

Is ETHERNAL suitable for sensitive skin?

Yes. The 30ml and 50ml oils are formulated with sensitive and mature skin in mind. ETHERNAL contains no synthetic fragrance, no preservatives, and no fillers. Jojoba and sweet almond oil are among the most skin-compatible carriers in natural skincare.

What are ETHERNAL Rose Drops?

Rose Drops are ETHERNAL's seasonal limited edition releases, each aligned with one of the four solar turning points of the year: the Spring Equinox, the Summer Solstice, the Autumn Equinox, and the Winter Solstice. Each Drop is produced in a small numbered batch alongside a new seasonal anointment ritual. Once a Drop sells out, it is not reproduced.

What is The Inner Circle of the Rose?

The Inner Circle of the Rose is the living heart of the ETHERNAL universe, a community of those who choose to move with the rose through the seasons. With each Rose Drop, members receive access to a live seasonal ritual session led by ETHERNAL founder Giselle Fiumara, offered both in person and online. Membership begins automatically with the purchase of any ETHERNAL oil.

Is ETHERNAL vegan and cruelty-free?

Yes. ETHERNAL Damask Rose Infusion Oil is 100% vegan and cruelty-free. No animal products, no animal testing. Only pure ingredients in their most natural form.

Where is ETHERNAL available?

ETHERNAL is available exclusively online at ethernalofficial.co and ships internationally. ETHERNAL is also present at Faena Miami Beach at Tierra Santa Healing House, with additional New York locations coming soon.

Damask Rose Oil for Skin: Benefits, How It Works, and How to Use It

Apr 6

Written By Giselle Fiumara

Damask Rose Oil has been used on the skin for centuries. Not as a trend, and not as a luxury accessory, but as one of the most effective botanical ingredients ever documented in skincare. What makes it remarkable is not one single compound. It is the combination of everything the rose carries, preserved together in its most complete form.

What Makes Damask Rose Oil Different for Skin

Most rose products in skincare use rose water, rose extract, or diluted rose essential oil. These are fragrant and pleasant, but they do not deliver the full nutritive profile of the rose to the skin. A properly made Damask rose petal infusion oil is different. It preserves the fat-soluble compounds of the flower that water-based products cannot carry and that distillation destroys in the process of extraction.

When Damask rose petals are slowly macerated in a carrier oil, vitamins A, C, E, and K remain intact and suspended in the oil alongside polyphenols, flavonoids, and anthocyanins. These are the compounds that protect, renew, and nourish the skin at a cellular level. They arrive together, in their natural balance, the way the rose intended them to.

The Skin Benefits of Damask Rose Oil

Damask rose petal infusion oil works on the skin in several distinct ways. The antioxidant compounds, particularly polyphenols and flavonoids, protect the skin from environmental stressors and support a healthy, radiant appearance over time. Vitamin A supports cell renewal and skin texture. Vitamin C contributes to brightness and collagen support. Vitamin E nourishes and protects the skin barrier. Vitamin K supports an even skin tone.

Beyond the individual compounds, the carrier base matters equally. ETHERNAL uses jojoba and sweet almond oil, two of the most skin-compatible carriers available. Jojoba closely resembles the skin's natural sebum, allowing the oil to absorb deeply without clogging pores. Sweet almond oil is rich in fatty acids and actively supports the skin barrier. Together they deliver the rose's nutrients where the skin can actually use them.

What the Skin Experiences Over Time

Damask rose infusion oil does not produce an overnight transformation. It works the way the rose grows, slowly, with accumulation. With daily use, the skin begins to feel more nourished, more balanced, and more radiant. Not a surface glow from sitting on top of the skin, but a deeper quality that comes from the skin being consistently fed what it needs.

The scent also deepens with the skin's warmth, becoming specific to the person using it. This is not a product that wears the same on everyone. It becomes yours. That quality, the way it adapts and personalizes over time, is part of what makes a rose infusion oil a ritual rather than a routine.

How to Use Damask Rose Oil on the Face, Hair, and Body

For the face, warm two to three drops between the palms and press gently into clean skin. It can be used morning or evening, alone or over a light moisturizer. Begin with a small amount and observe how your skin responds. Most skin types, including combination and sensitive, tolerate a petal infusion oil well because of the skin-compatible carrier base.

For the body, apply after a shower while the skin is still slightly warm. The heat opens the pores and allows the oil to absorb more fully. A few drops go a long way. For the hair, warm one drop between the palms and smooth over the ends or through dry hair for shine and nourishment without weight.

In all cases, the application itself is worth slowing down for. The scent, the warmth, the deliberate touch. This is where skincare becomes ritual.

Why ETHERNAL Uses Petal Infusion for Skin

ETHERNAL was built on one conviction: beauty is not extracted. It is preserved. By using Moroccan Damask Rose petals gathered from the Valley of Roses in a slow infusion process, the oil retains the rose in its fullest expression. Each milliliter carries the infusion of approximately seventy freshly gathered petals, suspended in a carrier system designed for direct daily application to face, hair, and body.

The rose functions here not only as fragrance, but as antioxidant skin treatment and ritual anointment oil. It is not reduced to a single note or a single benefit. It arrives complete.
