Rose Geranium essential oil production has scaled down dramatically in recent times and the Bourbon chemotype Rose Geranium cultivar is more commonly sourced from Madagascar. Geranium and Rose Geranium essential oil production now centres predominantly around Upper Egypt, the Yunnan province of China and to a lesser extent in the Western Cape and surrounding provinces of South Africa, Morocco and India.

Rose Geranium essential oil is an active ingredient in some cosmetic products like lotions and fragrances.

This is the cultivar that is favoured in perfumery and is utilised in many masculine or unisex fragrances to give a greener or more herbal aspect to any rose notes in a fragrance.
