Pure rose oil. Bright, clean, and lightly balmy. The rose at its most open.
The yellow rose carries a different character from its deeper-hued counterparts. Where a red or dark rose oil tends toward richness and density, yellow rose is fresher and more open — a softer floral with a faint warmth underneath. It has been used in perfumery and ritual for centuries across the Middle East, South Asia, and the Mediterranean, valued for the quality of lift it brings to a room without the heaviness of a concentrated attar.
This incense carries pure rose essential oil at Grade 1.1, hand-rolled in small batches using a recipe carried across generations. The natural resin base holds the floral note without adding weight. The smoke is clean and measured. The scent settles rather than asserts.
How to use
Place the stick in a ceramic or stone holder. Light the tip and allow it to catch for thirty seconds. Blow gently until the flame subsides. The smoke will carry for approximately forty-five minutes.
Yellow Rose works well in the late morning or early afternoon, or in the hour before an evening settles. It sits comfortably in a living room, a study, or a bedroom. Because the scent is bright rather than heavy, it does not need a large space to breathe.

A note on Grade 1.1
Grade 1.1 carries a lighter oil load than Grade 1.2 or 1.3, which suits the character of yellow rose well. The freshness of the oil comes through clearly at this grade. A heavier load would pull it in a direction this material does not want to go.
