Palmarosa essential oil is one of the most widely used floral botanicals in natural cosmetics. Its high geraniol content gives it a silky, refined, natural rose-like scent. Known for its soft, balancing olfactory touch, it is favored in facial care, delicate purifying blends, and sensory wellness environments.
