About

You will need access to unsprayed fresh roses for this. If you have none growing in the garden and no friends who can provide you with rose petals, you’ll have to loot neighbouring gardens at night. If you live near Brixton Academy and wake up one day to find your roses missing, we had nothing to do with it, honest. If you really can’t get hold of rose petals, rose water will do.
