Like the lily, that once was mistress of the field and flourish’d, I’ll hang my head and
perish. (Shakespeare, Henry VIII)
Flowers are a beautiful and powerful symbol of life across the ages, and when the petals fall
off the rose, or the lilies decay, they also have come to represent peace in the
afterlife—every civilization & culture in human history has derived different meanings from
different flowers, according to their mysterious rhythms. Perfumers who create scents make
sure there is a note of decay to startle the senses: always a reminder that where is birth,
there is death.
