Rose geranium belongs to the genus of geraniums, the common red-flowered plant often seen delicately spilling over window boxes. It's from the leaves and stem of this rose-scented flower that the popular essential oil is derived. It is often used as a replacement for the more expensive pure rose oil, and can be found in many soaps, cosmetics and perfumes.

History of Rose Geranium
The popularity of rose geranium took off during the Victorian Era. It was often kept in pots in parlors and dining rooms to offer a fresh revival of the senses and to be used in finger bowls during fancy dining occasions. Rose geranium oil is produced around the world: on the African continent and in Reunion where the oil tends to be darker and heavier in aroma; and in Russia and China where the oil tends to be greener and fresher in aroma.
