Ramo Blanco. (White Bouquet)
Traditionally white roses are given when you want to convey respect, pay homage to a new beginning, and express hope for the future. 
 
They also symbolize innocence, purity, and love, which is why they are a popular choice for weddings, bridal bouquets, anniversaries, and christenings.
 
Back in the 14th Century England the white rose was the emblem of the Duke of York who faced off with the red-rose Lancaster family, giving the renowned War of Roses its name.
 
In ancient India, the rose was held in such high esteem that, according to the law that existed at the time, anyone who brought it to the king could ask him for anything they wanted! 
 
Rose oil is said to improve acne, balance hormones, relieve anxiety, improve depression, reduce rosacea and naturally increase libido!
