In the early 1800s on the Île Bourbon, a beautiful botanical marriage ensued between an Indian shrub Rose and a China Rose, and the floral union produced a new rose, the first of the Bourbon Roses, that is uniquely pink and superbly scented. The absolute distillation of this Rose is ravishing and rare. We only get to offer it once in a blue moon.

"There are flower lovers who love some flowers and other flower lovers who love all flowers. Aunt Jane was of the latter class. The commonest plant, striving in its own humble way to be sweet and beautiful, was sure of a place here, and the haughtiest aristocrat who sought admission had to lay aside all pride of place or birth and acknowledge her kinship with common humanity. The Bourbon rose could not hold aside her skirts from contact with the cabbage-rose; the lavender could not disdain the companionship of sage and thyme. All must live together in the concord of perfect democracy. Then if the great Gardener bestowed rain and sunshine when they were needed, mid-summer days would show such a glorious symphony of color around the gray farmhouse, and through the enchantment of bloom and fragrance flitted an old woman, who's dark eyes glowed with the joy of living of remembering all life's other summers."
~ Eliza Calvert Hall, Aunt Jane of Kentucky.
