La Rose Aime le Poivre - Candle

Protected by an antique pink mat glass, Damascus rose and pepper passionately go up in flames. ‘Queen of flowers’ originally from Turkey, the Damascus rose has been praised since Antiquity for the finesse of its scent and elegance.

Historically celebrated from China to Persia, rose is a divine symbol. Equally rare and noble, pepper has been traded since Antiquity: a scarce commodity, it was used as a currency and is even mentioned in Roman figure Apicius’ book “De re culinarian libri”.
