Roses de Damas: A Candle Inspired by the City of Roses
Damascus and Its Blossoming Legacy
Damascus, one of the world’s oldest continuously inhabited cities, is often called the City of Roses. For centuries, the iconic Damascus rose has flourished here, revered for its beauty and profound cultural significance. Its delicate fragrance—woven into perfumes, oils, and traditional remedies—whispers of love and renewal.
In the heart of the ancient city, serene courtyards are brought to life by intricately designed fountains, a hallmark of Syrian architecture. These cool oases, adorned with detailed mosaics and geometric tiles, create a captivating dialogue between nature and art.
More than just a flower, the Damascus rose represents the city’s rich legacy of growth and resilience. It is a timeless symbol of life’s fragile yet enduring nature, blooming through the ages as a poetic reminder of love’s eternal bloom.
