Rose Absolute typically has a richer, sweeter and more honeyed floral aroma, while Rose Otto often has a fresher, lighter and more delicate rose character. Both are valued in fine perfumery but offer different aromatic qualities.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy is Rose Absolute sometimes thick\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRose Absolute can naturally have a viscous consistency due to its composition.
