Obviously it has gone bad, but can anyone tell me why?

Hi Margit, Folks....

Just on the chance....

Good rose otto will solidify at lower than normal room

temperatures....So might adulterated or bogus....

The first time I acquired rose otto I stored in the fridge and scared

the bejeezus out of my self...Was like crystallized....!

Try warming the otto up between your hands, and see if that fixes

things...If it's true rose otto the crystals will disappear....

Margit, I don't know how much you paid for this otto...If it was

inexpensive, then odds are you have a phony or adulterated essence...

Folks, I can tell you, after a decade and a half of playing with the

essences, you will not find inexpensive true rose otto out there...It's

just the nature of the stuff to be pricey...

Like many things in life....if the price is too good to be true, it

probably isn't....

Care...
