Ausperidot
Bessie’s colour transitions beautifully starting as an ivory bud opening quickly into a classic deep cup to reveal shades of apricot at her centre. As her petals relax Bessie’s shape becomes more rosette-like, her colour paling to buttery cream, developing hints of caramel whilst always maintaining a halo of ivory outer petals. Her light to medium fragrance is a combination of tea with undertones of myrrh. Bessie is like a collection of our favourite things – clotted cream, pearls, silk ribbons and soft, billowy pillows.

Bessie is a quick opener and a unique rose. Her rosette is delightfully full of petals and gorgeously open, while her colour mesmerisingly transitions from cream, peach through to nude and ivory tones. In my opinion she embodies a sense of romance, luxury and royalty, yet she retains a pure and innocent charm. Simply captivating.
