Rosewood Essential Oil

Praan Naturals 100% pure, authentic Rosewood Essential Oil is steam distilled from the heartwood of rosewood trees that have been sustainably cultivated in Peru. It possesses an especially lovely, sweet, woody aroma with subtle floral characteristics.

Rosewood trees, Aniba rosaeodora, are tall, leafy evergreen trees that belong to the Lauraceae plant family. Native to the Amazon rainforest, these majestic trees are prized for their beautifully aromatic, dark rose-colored heartwood. It is also known as Bois De Rose Essential Oil.

Ethical and Sustainable Sourcing:

Aniba rosaeodora is classified as an endangered species by The IUCN Red List of Threatened Species (International Union for Conservation of Nature and Natural Resources). For decades, the significant demand, over-exploitation and illegal extraction of rosewood trees lead to its endangerment.

Praan Naturals Rosewood Essential Oil is ethically and sustainably produced from rosewood trees that have been cultivated on plantations owned by local farmers in Peru. A CITES permit was acquired to legally import the essential oil.

Our manufacturing partner educates, supports and works closely with Peruvian farmers and their families. Collectively, they maintain a sustainable and balanced agroforestry system that includes preparing plantation lands to ensure ideal soil conditions, planting rosewood saplings, planting other botanicals that support the system, and caring for all of the trees and plants. To date, they have planted 40,000 rosewood saplings. Their initiative also helps to improve the livelihood of Amazonian inhabitants by providing full-time employment and by helping to stimulate the economy.
