About OnlyRoses

OnlyRoses is a luxury rose brand founded in London in 2007, with a boutique in Kuwait City at Salhia Complex, M1 Floor, Mohammad Thunayyan Street. It specialises in two products: Classic Roses®, fresh-cut Ecuadorian roses, and Infinite Roses®, real preserved Ecuadorian roses that require no water. OnlyRoses delivers same-day across Kuwait, from KWD 20.

A Singular Idea

OnlyRoses was founded in London in 2007 by Sabine and Anian Schmitt, with one idea: to treat the rose as a luxury object in its own right.

At a time when floristry was defined by mixed bouquets and fleeting arrangements, OnlyRoses chose absolute focus. Roses, and roses alone. Each stem considered, each composition deliberate, each arrangement designed not as decoration, but as an expression of refinement.

April 2010: The Volcano

In April 2010, the eruption of Eyjafjallajökull in Iceland closed European airspace for nine days, with further closures through May.

OnlyRoses had sold only Ecuadorian roses since 2007 — nothing from Holland, nothing from Africa — and its London boutiques went weeks without their product.

Anian Schmitt flew to Ecuador in search of a rose that could be held in stock rather than flown in weekly. He found a grower in the highlands outside Quito producing preserved blooms alongside its fresh crop — real roses, treated at peak bloom so that they held their form without water.

Those roses became Infinite Roses®, launched later that year. OnlyRoses has sold them continuously ever since.

Classic and Infinite

OnlyRoses is defined by two distinct expressions of the rose.

Classic Roses® are freshly cut and presented at the peak of their natural beauty — immediate, fragrant and timeless. They last seven to fourteen days with proper care.

Infinite Roses® are real roses, preserved at their most perfect moment. They need no water, no trimming and no feeding, and they are guaranteed for one year. In practice they last considerably longer: original arrangements from 2010 remain on display in the London boutique today, kept out of direct sunlight and gently dusted.

The Finest Roses in the World

OnlyRoses sources its roses directly from high-altitude farms in Ecuador, where volcanic soil, equatorial sunlight and cool mountain air produce blooms of exceptional size, colour and longevity. Each rose is selected for structure, vibrancy and character — chosen not in volume, but with intention.

London and the Gulf

From its Knightsbridge home in London, OnlyRoses expanded into the Gulf, where luxury, craftsmanship and the act of gifting hold deep cultural significance. There are OnlyRoses boutiques in Kuwait City, Doha and Riyadh.

A New Language of Gifting

OnlyRoses has become part of the modern language of luxury gifting — chosen for moments that require more than convention.

From private clients to global fashion houses, from intimate gestures to large-scale installations, the brand’s work is recognised for its precision, restraint and unmistakable identity.

What began as a small London boutique has become an international name, but the philosophy has not changed: to focus on one thing, and to do it exceptionally well.
