Fragrance: very slight addition of prickly pear notes obtained by transforming the taste characteristics of the fruit into a perfumed essence

Roviti prickly pear seed oil is a rare and precious product, obtained by cold pressing the seeds. Entirely produced in Sicily (Italy) in the beautiful and lush land at the foot of the volcano Etna. The prickly pear is a plant that has adapted perfectly to the volcanic soil, which is characterised by a Mediterranean climate with long, dry summers and concentrated rainfall in the autumn and winter.

The soil in which the prickly pear grows does not need fertilising, pruning or watering and, thanks to the power of its roots, which are able to move the lava soil, it grows luxuriantly, giving the fruit excellent nutritional characteristics as it is rich in potassium, calcium, phosphorous and iron, as well as group B vitamins and retinol. The oil reveals a significant amount of essential fatty acids, predominantly Omega 6, together with Vitamin E, carotenoids and phytosterols, giving it unique skin care properties.
