Frequently Asked Questions
The rose answers.
SECTION 1: THE OIL
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. What remains is pure, vibrationally alive, and complete. ETHERNAL is a luxury beauty oil and a tool for vibrational elevation.
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 and is considered the soul of the region. The roses are gathered at the height of their bloom, when their fragrance and vitality are at their peak. The infusion itself is crafted on the Mediterranean coast of Spain, where the petals are slowly macerated in jojoba and sweet almond oil over time. From Moroccan harvest to Mediterranean infusion, every step honors the integrity of the rose.
How many rose petals are in each bottle?
ETHERNAL uses approximately seventy Rosa damascena petals per milliliter of oil. This means:
The 10 ml Perfume Oil contains the infusion of approximately 700 petals.
The 30 ml Signature Oil contains approximately 2,100 petals.
The 50 ml Atelier Oil contains approximately 3,500 petals.
Every drop you warm in your palms carries that density of rose, concentrated and alive.
Why jojoba and sweet almond oil?
These two carriers were chosen with precision. Jojoba is sebum-compatible, meaning it absorbs into the skin without clogging pores and works in harmony with the skin's own natural oils. It does not sit on the surface. It carries the rose directly in. Sweet almond oil is deeply nourishing, rich in vitamins A and E, and exceptionally gentle on sensitive and mature skin. Together, they form a foundation that delivers the full intelligence of the rose petals to the skin without interference.
What is the difference between the 10 ml and the 30 ml bottles?
The 10 ml Perfume Oil is the concentrated expression of ETHERNAL. Designed for pulse points, scent, travel, and personal anointing, it is intimate, portable, and precise.
The 30 ml Signature Oil is the fuller expression. Created for daily face and body ritual, it allows for a more generous application and represents the heart of the ETHERNAL experience.
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 not an essential oil. It 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. Nothing is lost. The rose is received whole.
What is the difference between rose oil and rosehip oil?
They come from the same plant family but are entirely different ingredients. Rose oil, like ETHERNAL's, comes from the petals of Rosa damascena. It is rich in antioxidants, fat-soluble vitamins, polyphenols, and fragrant living compounds. Rosehip oil, by contrast, is pressed from the seeds of the rose fruit. It carries no floral fragrance and is known for its fatty acid content, primarily used for scarring and barrier support. Both are valuable. They are not interchangeable. ETHERNAL is a rose petal infusion. Not a rosehip oil.
Why is authentic Damask Rose Infusion Oil expensive?
Because the rose does not yield her essence easily. ETHERNAL uses approximately seventy Rosa damascena petals per milliliter of oil. That density requires thousands of whole petals for every single bottle. The roses must be gathered in the Valley of Roses in Morocco during a brief seasonal harvest, at the precise moment of peak bloom, and handled with care from field to infusion. ETHERNAL’s cold infusion method is slow: whole petals are macerated patiently over time until the oil carries their full profile. This process cannot be rushed or scaled without consequence. Authentic Rosa damascena cannot be synthesized in a laboratory. Its complexity, more than 300 natural compounds, has never been fully replicated. When you hold ETHERNAL, you hold real time, real petals, and a harvest from the Valley of Roses in Morocco that cannot be manufactured.
SECTION 2: THE RITUAL
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. That heat activates the intelligence of the rose intact in the oil, before it ever touches your skin. Then inhale slowly, deeply, 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 ETHERNAL rose. This is a daily beauty ritual and a daily practice of presence. The two are the same thing in ETHERNAL.
Which ETHERNAL oil is right for me?
The 10 ml Perfume Oil is a concentrated rose perfume designed for pulse points: the wrists, the neck, behind the ears. It is worn as a personal fragrance and a moment of presence. It is not designed for full face application.
The 30 ml Signature Oil and the 50 ml Atelier Oil are both formulated for face, hair, and body, including sensitive and mature skin. The 30 ml is ideal for daily face and body use. The 50 ml is crafted for slower, more ceremonial application: full body rituals, bathing, and massage. If you are new to ETHERNAL, the Signature Oil is where to begin.
How often should I use ETHERNAL?
Daily. Morning and evening, two to six drops each time. The infusion is concentrated. A little carries a great deal. Used consistently, the oil becomes part of the rhythm of your skin and your day, delivering antioxidants, nourishment, and the grounding frequency of the rose with every application.
Can ETHERNAL Damask Rose Oil be used on the face?
Yes. The 30 ml Signature Oil and 50 ml 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. As with any facial oil, begin with a small amount and observe how your skin responds.
Is ETHERNAL suitable for sensitive skin?
Yes. The 30 ml and 50 ml oils are formulated with sensitive and mature skin in mind. Jojoba and sweet almond oil are among the most skin-compatible carriers in natural skincare, and ETHERNAL contains no synthetic fragrance, no preservatives, and no fillers. If you are new to facial oils, we recommend beginning with evening application so you can observe how your skin responds. As with any new skincare product, a patch test is recommended for those with known sensitivities. ETHERNAL is a pure and concentrated formulation. If you use active ingredients such as retinol, AHAs, vitamin C, or other potent actives, we recommend checking compatibility with your current routine and consulting your skincare professional if you are unsure. Avoid applying the oil directly before sun exposure.
What is a ritualized body oil?
A ritualized oil is a beauty product that is also a practice. It nourishes the skin with every application and, when applied with intention, becomes a daily act of presence: conscious touch, conscious breath, a moment that returns the body to itself. ETHERNAL was created to live at that intersection. It is a full antioxidant skin treatment and a tool for vibrational elevation. Used daily, it works on the skin. Experienced as ritual, it works on everything.
SECTION 3: THE DROPS
What are ETHERNAL ROSE DROPS?
ROSE DROPS are ETHERNAL's seasonal limited edition releases, each one 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 and launched alongside a new seasonal anointment ritual, a complete energetic and ceremonial practice designed specifically for that season's frequency. The oil and the ritual arrive together. They are one offering. Once a DROP sells out, it is not reprinted. What you receive is that season, held in a bottle.
Why are ETHERNAL bottles released in limited numbered editions?
Because limitation is part of the integrity. ETHERNAL does not produce to meet demand. Each ROSE DROP is crafted in a quantity that honors the quality of the harvest and the slowness of the infusion process. Every bottle carries a number marking its place in that release, a record of its origin within the collection. The numbering is a statement: that beauty created with intention cannot be manufactured at scale without losing what makes it valuable.
How do I purchase ETHERNAL Damask Rose Oil?
ETHERNAL is available exclusively online at https://ethernalofficial.co. All orders are placed through the website and shipped directly to you. There is no physical retail store yet. ETHERNAL is also present at Faena Miami Beach, at Tierra Santa Healing House, and other New York locations coming soon. These are curated spa experiences, not retail points of sale. ROSE DROPS are released first through The Inner Circle of the Rose, where members receive early access before each DROP opens to the public. Once a DROP sells out, it is gone.
How do I know when the next ROSE DROP is released?
Through The Inner Circle of the Rose. Inner Circle members are the first to know and the first to receive access to each new DROP and its accompanying seasonal ritual. To stay close to the rose and never miss a DROP, joining The Inner Circle is the only way.
SECTION 4: THE INNER CIRCLE
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, not just own a bottle of it. With each ROSE DROP, members receive access to a live seasonal ritual session led by ETHERNAL's founder, Giselle Fiumara. These sessions, offered both in person and online, guide members through the complete anointment ritual and energy elevation practice designed for that season: its intention, its breathwork, its movement, its specific frequency. Each session is created exclusively for Inner Circle members and is not available to the public. The ritual practice is the most important part of the ETHERNAL experience. The oil is the vehicle. The Inner Circle is where the practice lives. It is not a loyalty program. It is a circle. And it is complimentary to every ETHERNAL lover.
Are the Inner Circle sessions online or in person?
Both. Sessions are offered in person and online so members can participate from anywhere in the world. ETHERNAL's community is global, and the circle is open regardless of location. Details on each upcoming session, including format, date, and how to join, are shared exclusively with Inner Circle members ahead of each ROSE DROP.
How do I become a Member of The Inner Circle of the Rose?
Membership in The Inner Circle of the Rose begins with the bottle. When you purchase ETHERNAL Damask Rose Oil, you are welcomed into the Inner Circle automatically. There is no separate application and no additional subscription required. Ownership of the oil is the entry point. Each ROSE DROP grants access to the seasonal ritual session created for that release. The oil and the practice are inseparable. To hold the bottle is to be part of the Circle.
What is the ETHERNAL-Universe AI?
The ETHERNAL-Universe AI is a custom intelligence designed to guide you toward the right ETHERNAL expression for your current state. Through a quiet dialogue, it translates how you feel, your skin's needs, your energy, your intention, into a precise ritual and a specific oil recommendation. It is not a chatbot. It is the rose, listening. You can access it directly from the homepage.
Does ETHERNAL offer wholesale or retail partnerships?
ETHERNAL partners selectively with aligned luxury spas and concept spaces. Current presence includes Tierra Santa Healing House at Faena Miami Beach, with additional locations launching soon. For retail or wholesale inquiries, please contact giselle@ethernalofficial.co.
