Rock rose

Rock Rose (Cistus ladanifer) is a sprawling shrub with hairy white flowers native to the eastern Mediterranean, particularly the Greek islands. Its Latin name is derived from the Greek word "kístē" (box) due to the specific arrangement of its seeds. Did you know that this aromatic treasure, also known as "labdanum," was mentioned several times in the Old Testament?! Rock Rose flower water, or labdanum, tightens mature skin and smoothes fine wrinkles. The sweet, warm, herbal-musky scent of the essential oil helps when we need calming and comfort. It is among the luxury ingredients used especially in oriental cosmetics and perfumery.
