The Rose is perhaps one of the most celebrated flowers in perfumery, and also in love.
As we head towards the end of January and look forward to celebrating love and friendship for St Valentine’s Day on 14th February, my thoughts and olfactory desires are shifting from the comforting woody notes of winter, to the more uplifting fragrant notes of the rose.
So walk with me through an olfactory rose garden, if you will, for a tour of timeless and elegant rose scents that are equally as lovely to wear or to scent your home with.
We are celebrating the collection of rose perfumes created by Angela over the years. Floral notes hold a special place in our hearts, as we are surrounded by flowers each Sunday and the rose is a note that we hold especially dear.
Rose can be uplifting, comforting, sensual and elegant. It is gorgeous combined with both deeper sensual notes or lightened with elegant touches of feminine scents, the choice is yours.
So let's summon up some love in the midst of these bleak grey days and enjoy the romance of the rose together.
