Can the Value of Rose Oil and the Elegance of Rose Water Exist Together?
Rose water has been one of the world's most trusted natural skincare ingredients for centuries. Used across cultures for beauty, wellness, and personal care, it remains a staple in modern skincare routines.
Today, however, consumers are asking new questions:
What is Non-Deoiled Rose Water?
Can the valuable aromatic compounds associated with rose oil also be present within a rose distillate?
Why is Akita's Non-Deoiled Rose Water different from traditional rose water?
The answers begin with understanding the science of rose distillation.
Why Is Rose Oil So Valuable?
Rosa Damascena, often known as the Damask Rose, is one of the most prized aromatic plants in the world.
Scientific research has identified several key aromatic compounds that contribute to the characteristic profile of rose oil, including:
Citronellol
Geraniol
Nerol
Farnesol
Linalool
Phenethyl Alcohol
These naturally occurring aromatic molecules help create the distinctive scent and identity of the rose.

Choosing a gift has never been more difficult. Most of us can easily access the things we need, and many gifts are quickly forgotten. But some gifts are more than just physical items—they carry meaning. Rose water is one of those gifts.
Even before I became a rose water producer, I believed this. But now, I understand the true value of each drop more deeply than ever.
The Meaning Behind Rose Water
Giving rose water is not just about offering something that smells nice. It’s a way of saying to someone you care about: “You are special. I wish you a beautiful life.”
To me, one of the most meaningful messages behind gifting rose water is the wish for a beautiful life. Imagine living your entire life in a rose garden... Picking fresh roses each morning... Walking among them, breathing in their scent...
It’s not just a dream—it’s a heartfelt wish:
“May your life be like a rose garden.”
A Wish for a Rose Garden
Sometimes I want to say to my loved ones: “I wanted to give you a rose garden. A place where every corner holds beauty and every breath brings peace.”
As soon as rose scent fills the air, something shifts in us. It surrounds us with positiv...
An Exclusive Interview with Burhan Kılıç, Founder of Akita Natural Products
📍 How It All Started: A Vision Rooted in Isparta
Akita’s journey began in 1993—not in cosmetics, but in tourism. As the first officially licensed travel agency in Isparta, we proudly represented Turkish Airlines for over 15 years. However, with the rise of digital transformation, we foresaw the decline of traditional travel agencies.
Our background in engineering and analytics pushed us toward innovation. Being based in Isparta, home to the world-renowned Rosa Damascena roses, we naturally gravitated toward rose-based production. But for us, roses weren't just agricultural assets—they were cultural heritage.
We noticed that the rose water available on the market lacked in quality and failed to meet international standards. This gap inspired us to take a scientific approach to production, supported by partnerships with cosmetic labs in Canada, France, and Germany, and aromatherapy experts in the Netherlands and Taiwan. Long before R&D became a trend in Turkey, we embraced it as our foundation.
