Full bloom

Nothing says romance like roses, and this season Jo Malone London has released an entire collection dedicated to what the brand dubs ‘the queen of the flower’. From candles and diffusers to special-edition colognes, this new range celebrates the myriad moods and sensual notes derived from this timeless bloom. Prices vary; jomalonelondon.co.uk

La vie en rose

Roses were the favourite flower of esteemed French fashion designer Christian Dior, so it’s little wonder that the bloom has inspired several contemporary jewellery collections under the house of Dior. The dazzling Bagatelle collection takes its name from the famous rose garden in Paris, which features several different varieties of the flower. With their muted tones and thorn detailing, these fine jewellery pieces are feminine yet strikingly modern. Rose Dior Bagatelle Earrings 18k White Gold and Diamonds, £19,900; dior.com
