This is the one I was thinking of:

To draw both good Rosewater and oyle of Roses together

After you have digested your Rose leaves by the space of 3 moneths
...then distill them with fair water in a Limbeck: draw so long as you
can find any excellent smell of the Rose, then divide the fattie oyle
that fleeteth on the top of the Rosewater, and so you have both
excellent oyle of Roses, and also good Rosewater together...
