Rosewood Natural Blend Essential Oil


Average Product Rating: 5 / 5 (Based on 33 Customer Reviews)



Plant Part: Wood

Extraction Method: Steam Distilled

Origin: Canada

Description: Rosewood is a small evergreen tree now controlled as an endangered species by the Government of Brazil. Since there is very little good affordable quality of Rosewood Oil available, we offer this natural blend which imitates the components and scent of the real Rosewood Oil.

Color: Colorless to pale yellow liquid.

Common Uses: Rosewood Essential Oil is credited with being a bactericidal, anti-fungal, antiviral, anti-parasitic cellular stimulant, immune system stimulant, tissue regenerator, tonic, antidepressant, antimicrobial, and as an aphrodisiac. It is also regarded as a general balancer to the emotions. Rosewood oil is rich in linalool, a chemical which can be transformed into a number of derivatives of value to the flavor and fragrance industries.

Consistency: Thin

Note: Top

Strength of Aroma: Medium

Blends well with: Cedarwood, Frankincense, Geranium, Rosemary, Mandarin, Ylang-ylang.

Aromatic Scent: Rosewood Essential Oil has a fantastic warm and woody scent, while at the same time being both floral and fruity.

History: Rosewood has been introduced to aromatherapy only recently. Research in October of 1995 has shown this oil to have the highest inhibition rate of all the oils tested against gram positive and gram-negative bacterial growth.

Cautions: Avoid in pregnancy. It is a possible irritant to sensitive skin.

I don't know what Rosewood EO smells like but this blend is fabulous. It smells like a complex wine. It is all that the description above says: Warm, woody, floral and fruity. You feel full and intoxicated with just a few sniffs of this wonderful essential oil blend.

This really smells like rosewood!! Not as strong or floral as the real rosewood essential oil I have already, but very very close. Can't wait to try this in a cream.

A wonderful mix with a slight fruitiness to it. I can not say that this is equal with true Rosewood, but it as close as you can get. Besides, I would much rather pay ND prices for a blend than $2000-$3000 dollars a 1/2 ounce for true Rosewood. Between this and Ho Wood, your Rosewood needs will be satisfied in full. Good job ND!

Lovely woody scent with a sweetness to it, yet very clean. Sophisticated aroma that would be fabulous blended with a floral and/or citrus. Very full, round scent that is a must-have! Many possible uses!NDA has done it again!

Rosewood is one of my personal favorites for diffusing and for skin care. Just got my second bottle of rw from NDA. It's diffusing as I type. Fantastic!!

Very potent oil. The nuances of the fragrance of rosewood come out much more clearly when it's well diluted. It's fresh, "cool" and woodsy with a subtle floral undertone. Really something special that can't be confused with any other EO. It also has excellent therapeutic qualities: I find the scent really calming and balancing, and I like to take advantage of some of its other properties by including it in face masks and serums.

This is by far the best Rosewood EO I have ever smellled. The others don't even compare -- they have all been significantly less potent, and with far fewer notes. I'm using for skin softening in my formulations. Love it!

This one is a must-have. I love woody scents for being a deep and clean smell, but this one is also sweet so it blends well with florals, citrus, and vanilla. I find that it rounds out mixes well when they just need a little something extra.

The best scent ever. I use it in my face serum and add a few drops in my shea butter mixture. It reminds me of some of my mother's antique chests that my great granny brought from China.

A glorious Rosewood from the Brazilian jungle with a unique rich floral-citrusy fragrance. I used it in my Private Estate Stash of Special Soaps, that I create only for my family not for my Company...but guess what...everyone wants it now after using it when they visit! I guess I'll be ordering a very large quantity soon.
