About Bulgarian Rose Attar (Valley of Roses)

Since the 17th century, the Valley of Roses near Kazanlak has supplied more than half the world's rose attar — Rosa damascena petals hand-picked before dawn, steam-distilled in copper alembics. This design system channels that heritage: dusty petal-pink against moss-green Stara Planina foothills, antique copper highlights, and brass apothecary accents.

The aesthetic is agricultural craft, not commercial perfumery. Cards frame content like specimen plates; surfaces carry parchment grain; borders gleam with restrained brass gilt. Every element recalls the distillery at dawn — serious, warm, and quietly precious.
