Rose oil Rose oil is obtained from the petals of different Rosa species, especially Rosa centifolia L. and Rosa damascena Mill. The varieties of Rosa damascena, are Indica, Jwala, Super jwala, Himroz, Hot himroz and one accession of Rosa bourboniana. A study identified the main components of rose oil, namely; citronellol + nerol, geraniol, linalool, rose oxide, phenyl ethyl alcohol, eugenol, and nonadecane which present the therapeutic effect of Rose oil. Aromatherapy makes use of essential oil to provide comfort to the body. The effects of essential oil on the body goes beyond comfort, essential oils have some health benefits. The following are the health benefits of Rose oil; Relaxing effects A study was carried out to investigate the effect of rose oil on human autonomic parameters and emotional responses in healthy subjects. Breathing masks were used to exclude any olfactory stimulation and the inhalation of the fragrances. Forty volunteers were included and divided into two groups in the study, and assessed for autonomic parameters and emotional responses. In comparison to the placebo group, the experimental group showed significant decreases in breathing rate, blood oxygen saturation, and systolic blood pressure, which indicate a decrease in autonomic arousal. Also, they showed calmer, more relaxed, and less alert than subjects in the control group. The study concluded that rose oil has relaxing effects on the body. Pharmacological properties A study reviews the therapeutic effects of rose oil that had been clinically evaluated in trial studies. The study searched for human studies that have evaluated the therapeutic effects of rose oil and published in the English language until August 2015 on Google scholar, PubMed, Cochrane Library, and Scopus. A total number of thirteen studies were included in the search. Most of the studies (five trials) evaluated the analgesic effect of rose oil. Five studies evaluated the physiological relaxation effect of rose oil; anti-depressant, psychological relaxation, improving sexual dysfunction, and anti-anxiety effects all reported for rose oil. The study observed that rose oil had physiological and psychological relaxation, analgesic, and anti-anxiety effects. More studies are required to conclude on the efficacy and safety of rose oil. Sexual dysfunction Rose oil plays a significant role in improving sexual function in affected patients. In a double-blind, randomized, and placebo-controlled clinical trial study carried out to collaborate the positive influence of Rosa damascena on selective serotonin-reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) induced sexual dysfunction of male patients who are suffering from major depressive disorder (MDD) and are being treated with SSRIs. The total of 60 male included was divided into two groups and treated with rose oil and placebo in each group respectively. R. damascena oil improved sexual dysfunction which corresponded with an improved in depressive symptom in the group treated with R. damascena oil. Effect of dermatitis A study identified the therapeutic effects of rose oil showing the anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects on the skin, promotion of wound healing and repairs of skin barrier. A study showed that free radicals are unstable chemical species, highly reactive, being formed by cellular entities of different tissues. An increase in the production of radicals without proper action of endogenous and exogenous antioxidant systems leads to oxidative stress, causing skin disorders such as; skin cancer, dermatitis, chronic and acute inflammatory processes.
