( EN ) It’s our fourth Valentine’s day together (yay). I was waiting for the usual, which is roses and chocolates. This year, my fiance chose something different: eternal roses and french macarons. He bought everything at MFLEURS, a shop in Montreal that sells eternal and/or fresh roses in beautiful displays and arrangements.
He gave me a la bijoux 4 eternal roses (diamond collection), all peaches and cream color, and a la mignon 4 roses (M-signature collection) in Dior Rose white/gold tip color.
The la bijoux is a clear acrylic keepsake box with a lid, with four eternal roses - you get to choose the color, everything is customizable - and a small drawer at the bottom in which you can fit travel sized perfumes, rings, jewelry, makeup. It’s cute, practical and chic. My favorite so far! It costs $99 CAD.
The la mignon is a 4x4x4 inch box, white or black, with a branded ribbon and four eternal roses of your choice. It makes a nice gift for any occasion: weddings, birthdays, valentine’s, etc. Prices vary between $39 and $53 CAD depending on the rose color.
I already had a my ring box that I bought in 2019 for my engagement ring. I chose the peaches and cream rose because it was the demo in the store and I fell in love with the color. It has only one rose and you can display up to two rings. It has an acrylic lid on it and it’s transparent so you can admire it every single day. It costs $59 CAD.
What are eternal/forever roses? They are real roses that can last a year. They are picked fresh, the stems are cut and they go to a special process in which they are submerged in glycerin and other substances so they can be preserved for a year - and even more!
My fiance was working from 18:00 to 6:00am - he works as a security in a luxurious condo and his work shifts are always the same - so we didn’t do any activity together. I went to a portuguese-brazilian restaurant called Boca Boa Grill with my sister. That was my V-Day friday for you!
