Few roses can rival the richness and romance of Madame Isaac Pereire, a Bourbon beauty long celebrated for her lush blooms and unforgettable fragrance. Often described as “luscious” and “sumptuous,” this historic rose more than lives up to her reputation.
Her large, deeply cupped, quartered blooms unfold in saturated shades of carmine to deep rose-pink, with a soft, almost velvety presence. Each flower is generously petaled and can reach up to 5 inches across, creating that signature “cabbage rose” look that feels both antique and indulgent.
But it is her fragrance that truly sets her apart. Widely regarded as one of the most powerfully scented roses in existence, Madame Isaac Pereire fills the garden with an intense, fruity damask perfume, often described with notes of raspberry, that is especially intoxicating in the cool of morning.
Blooming in generous flushes throughout the season, she offers a spectacular spring display, followed by repeat blooms in fall and scattered flowers through the warmer months once established. Her vigorous growth allows her to be grown as a large shrub or trained as a climber, reaching 6 to 8 feet or more with graceful, arching canes.
Best suited for cooler sites, this rose thrives when given good air circulation and attentive placement, as it can be susceptible to mildew and blackspot in more humid conditions. In return, she rewards the gardener with unmatched beauty, fragrance, and old-world charm.
A timeless favorite for cutting, garden display, or training along a structure, Madame Isaac Pereire remains one of the most beloved fragrant roses ever grown.

At checkout, you may choose your desired delivery timeframe. This is a very important step!
We do ask that you make sure the weather in your zone is suitable for receiving and plating your roses.
Antique Rose Emporium is in Texas and the December weather can be anywhere from below freezing to 80 degrees Fahrenheit. But our weather is extremely mild compared to the northern United States.
We want you to have the best success possible with your roses and ask that you let us care for them over the winter and receive them at the time that you plan to plant.
Please ensure that you are not experiencing freezing temperatures and the ground is not frozen when you plan to receive your rose.
