  Rose of May Floral water France
  Once growing thickly over the Provencal hills, the Centifolia rose, the name referring its profusion of petals, has become one of the symbols of Grasse’s agricultural past and present-day industry. Like jasmine, the flower brought the City of Grasse world renown. Along with the Damask rose, it is one of only two species of rose grown for their fragrance. Steam distillation of the Centifolia rose petals only produces May rose water, for there is not sufficient yield to produce essential oil. May rose absolute is obtained via ethanol extraction of the concrete. Exuding a rich, sweet fragrance, the Centifolia rose is the very expression of the rose, with a characteristic herbaceous note, found in the floral water and in absolute. The May rose has a prestigious fragrance and boasts the distinguished elegance of timeless femininity. It is also celebrated for its many applications in skin care.
