The word rosa is derived from the Greek word rodon, meaning “red.” The rose used by the Greeks was a deep, crimson color—the color of blood, passion, and love. The Greek poet Sappho referred to rose as the “Queen of Flowers.”
Rose belongs to the family Rosaceae and genus Rosa; the latter contains about 150 species. According to Greek mythology, Aphrodite, goddess of beauty, gave the rose its name in honor of her son Eros by rearranging just one letter in his name. In time Eros gave the rose to Harpocrates, god of silence, as a bribe to conceal the weakness of the gods. From there, rose became symbolic of secrecy, silence and love.
The cultivation of roses likely began in Asia about 5000 years ago and they have been an intimate part of human civilization ever since. Confucius wrote of growing roses in the Imperial Gardens about 500 B.C. and mentioned that the emperor’s library contained hundreds of books on the subject of roses.
Legend has it that the distillation of roses began in India, when Shah Jahan and his wife (he is credited with building the Taj Mahal and Shalimar Gardens for her) were rowing along a canal that was dug to surround the Gardens. Groundskeepers had filled the water with rose petals and the oil from the roses, shimmering on the surface of the water, was skimmed to make an enchanting perfume.
Traditionally, the scent of rose has been used to calm and uplift the spirt, and to have anti-depressant benefits. A study published in the National Library of Medicine (Feb.2009) showed that compared to a placebo, “.. rose oil caused significant decreases of breathing rate .. and systolic blood pressure”; “At the emotional level, subjects in the rose oil group rated themselves as more calm, more relaxed and less alert than subjects in the control group. These findings are likely to represent a relaxing effect of the rose oil and provide some evidence for the use of rose oil in aromatherapy, such as causing relief of depression and stress in humans.”
