Rosa damascena

Rosea is the line that opens the maison. The Damask rose — Rosa damascena — has been cultivated in Anatolia for over a thousand years. Today, Isparta in southwestern Türkiye produces roughly sixty percent of the world's rose oil.

The rose is harvested between first light and mid-morning — never later. After the sun rises high, the oil withdraws into the plant and the day's harvest is decided. This is not a marketing detail. It is the reason Anatolia has carried the rose for a century: the knowledge of when.

The line will hold four pieces: a lip balm, a mist, a cream, an oil — named in Ottoman vocabulary, made in the Ottoman discipline of restraint. Products follow at launch.

A flower that asks you to arrive at the right hour.
