The love between pepper and Damask rose is passionate.
Originally from Turkey, the Damask rose, known as the ‘queen of flowers’, has been praised since ancient times for its delicate fragrance and elegance. From China to Persia, the rose is revered as a divine symbol. The rare and precious pepper has been traded since ancient times: as a scarce commodity, it was even used as a means of payment and is mentioned in the book ‘De re culinaria libri’ by the Roman writer Apicius. Pepper is generally known for its intense flavour and stimulating medicinal properties.
There is no unrequited love between the two families – Rosaceae and Piperaceae. When mixed in a candle, the rose bush and peppercorns – which vary in colour from pink to green to black – form a perfect pair: when it is cold, the spiciness of the peppercorns takes over, and when it is warm, the delicate scent of roses is elegantly enhanced.
The delicate Damask rose and the noble pepper are a perfect match.
The limited edition floral packaging shines in dusky pink with a gold-edged label: the botanical palette is an invitation to share precious moments with loved ones. On the illustrated label, a bouquet of roses embraces pepper plants rich in pink peppercorns.
Falling in love is easy.
