“ What's in a name?
That which we call a rose/By any other name would smell as sweet.”
-- Romeo and Juliet, William Shakespeare
Rose attar is the steam-extracted essential oil from rose flowers that has been used in perfumes for centuries. Rose water, Rose Incense, made from the rose oil, is widely used in Asian and Middle Eastern cuisine.
The French are known for their rose syrup, most commonly made from an extract of rose petals. In the United States, this French rose syrup is used to make rose scones and marshmallows. Most species of roses are native to Asia, with smaller numbers of species native to Europe, North America, and northwest Africa.
