Rosa gallica L. (Raduga variety) — French Rose Oil
Rosa gallica (Raduga) is a heritage rose variety with a powerful, concentrated aromatic character distinct from Damascena. The essential oil has an intense, deep floral profile with pronounced spicy and slightly fruity undertones that give it a unique identity among rose oils. Bioform cultivates this variety on its own certified organic plantation in the village of Tazha, at the heart of Bulgaria's Rose Valley, and distils the freshly picked petals on site using traditional copper stills to preserve the oil's full aromatic complexity.
The Raduga variety was specifically selected for its exceptional oil yield and aromatic complexity. The resulting essential oil offers perfumers and formulators a bold, distinctive rose note that stands apart in fine fragrance compositions. In skincare applications, Rose Gallica oil is valued for its potent antioxidant properties and its ability to impart a rich, natural rose character to premium formulations. Bioform supplies this oil with complete batch traceability, GC-MS analysis, and all relevant certification documentation.
