Princess Kaori Rose
The Princess Kaori Rose is a crown jewel of Japanese floral artistry. Known for its sophisticated “Blue-Lavender” aesthetic, it is widely considered one of the most fragrant roses in existence. “Kaori” translates to fragrance in Japanese—a fitting name for a bloom that captivates the senses from the moment it begins to unfurl.
Signature Features & Aesthetics
- Ethereal Lavender Palette: Unlike traditional pinks, Princess Kaori offers a rare, dusty lavender-mauve shade that can lean toward “blue” in cool lighting, creating a dreamy, vintage atmosphere.
- Intricate Rosette Form: This rose features a deep-cupped, nostalgic rosette shape. Its petals are densely packed yet delicate, opening into a wide, airy bloom that looks like a painting.
- Award-Winning Fragrance: The scent is legendary—a powerful, sweet mix of classic Old Rose with notes of lavender, honey, and a hint of spice. It is a true “perfume” rose.
- Refined Versatility: Its cool tones make it the perfect partner for silver-green eucalyptus, deep plum accents, or crisp white lilies for a high-contrast, modern look.
Why Choose Princess Kaori Roses?
- Exotic Rarity: As a Japanese specialty variety, Princess Kaori is a “status” flower in the floral world, offering a unique alternative to standard European varieties.
- Unmatched Sensory Experience: Ideal for intimate events where guests can appreciate its incredible fragrance up close, such as bridal bouquets or bedside arrangements.
- Long-Lasting Grace: Despite its delicate appearance, it holds its form beautifully, offering a reliable vase life of 7–9 days when properly cared for.

To ensure your Princess Kaori Roses reach their full lavender potential:
- Hydration is Key: Upon arrival, trim 1 inch from the stems at a 45-degree angle.
