Natural Fragrance Rose has perfected preserving the lifetime of a Taif Rose. The Taif Rose is named Elizabeth in this floral line of long-lasting sustainable fragrance roses. With 30 petals and beloved for its deep fragrance, the Taif rose is the most astonishing; harvested in one day and primarily harvested to squeeze their oil (10grams from 40,000 flowers) and use it in illustrious perfumes.
Saudi Arabia is known for its cultivation of the rare Taif Rose, a subspecies of Rosa damascena (Rosa x Damascena trigintipetala) for rose oil and rose water. Dating back to 100 years ago; each spring, Taif’s fields are said to be seas of beautiful pink as the Taif rose blooms.
A perfect gift for all with a story behind it and that lasts 3-4 months with no water and no maintenance. Retailing at just $19.99 on Amazon and sold in grocery stores nationally.
Taif roses grow around the city of Taif in western Saudi Arabia, not far from Mecca. The city’s 2000 metres above sea level, and the cooler temperature may be partly responsible for how well it flourishes there, under the control of just five local families. As with all roses, it’s important to harvest Taif roses early in the morning, before the heat of the day destroys the precious essential oils. The attar of roses which is produced is powerful and expensive – and no wonder: it takes around 40,000 rose flowers to produce one 10 g bottle of rose attar.
“Garden grown roses, normally by the thousands harvested and squeezed and distilled into oil for perfumes. We hydrate the flower for you to enjoy for months,” states Peter Persoon, the Founder of Natural Fragrance Rose.

About Natural Fragrance Rose:
Third-generation Dutch flower cultivator Peter Persoon established Natural Fragrance Rose as the green revolution in indoor fragrance. A safe and sustainable alternative to carbon-burning synthetic candles or diffusers, Natural Fragrance Roses offer a variety of tantalizing, botanically-based scents. Each premium flower is produced using proprietary technology that replaces the plant’s water cells with bio-based moisturizing creams. Taking in moisture from the air, the blooms require no water or care, staying delightfully fresh and aromatic for months – up to 10 times longer than fresh-cut roses. With no need for refrigeration, Natural Fragrance Roses are transported and displayed in a glass vase which cuts over 9 times the transport and emissions waste of traditionally manufactured roses.
