We don't even need the "[or] savory or aromatic" part of the definition. Google Gemini prattles: > Rose oil is a luxurious natural extract primarily used in skincare, [etc.] > It deeply hydrates dry or mature skin, soothes inflammation, and helps > reduce anxiety and stress. > ... Packed with antioxidants, rose oil helps rejuvenate the skin, > improve elasticity, and reduce the appearance of fine lines. > It is also antibacterial and helps soothe redness or acne-prone skin. There is a bottle of rose oil lotion within reach atop the very same desk where I type these words. ----- James
