The world of fragrant roses at Belle Epoque

It is often said that fragrance is the soul of the rose, and any rose lover will agree. Scented roses not only bring color and life to your garden, but also an aroma that stimulates the senses and evokes memories. At Belle Epoque we understand how a scented rose can add an extra dimension to your garden, an invisible layer of pleasure that can only be perceived by the nose.

The origin of fragrant roses

The scent of a rose comes from the oil in the petals and is often stronger in roses with an abundance of petals. Historically, ancient rose varieties were highly fragrant, a characteristic that has evolved and refined over the centuries. The scent of a rose can range from sweet and fruity to spicy and even spicy, depending on the variety and growing conditions.

In the 19th and 20th centuries, with the emergence of modern hybrid tea roses, the emphasis was on shape, color and flowering ability. Unfortunately, this was sometimes at the expense of fragrance, causing many modern roses to have less fragrance than their historic counterparts. At Belle Epoque we bring back the importance of scent with our selection of scented roses.

Why scented roses are a must-have in your garden

A scented rose in your garden not only offers visual beauty, but also a rich aromatic experience. Planting scented roses near a patio, bench or passageway ensures that you can enjoy their scent to the fullest. Whether it is the sweet scent of New Dawn, the fruity aromas of Gertrude Jekyll, or the spicy notes of Munstead Wood, every scented rose has its own unique scent profile.

How to choose the right scented rose for your garden

When choosing a scented rose for your garden, consider the following factors:

• Scent profile: Decide which scent appeals to you most: sweet, fruity, spicy or spicy.
• Inflorescence: Choose roses that bloom repeatedly or continuously to enjoy their fragrance all season long.
• Placement: Plant scented roses in places you often walk or sit by, so you can continually enjoy their aroma.
• Combinations: Combine roses with other scented plants such as lavender for a layered fragrance explosion.
