The scent of roses is attributed to Our Blessed Mother. I blelieve you may have been given a gift from Our Lady!
Would you mind sharing your experience?
My 2 small sons and I had this recently happen to us at church on the Feast of the Immaculate Conception, a few weeks ago. While at church, we were hugging (we like to “group” hug - the 3 of us- during the sign of peace) While in our little hugging huddle, my oldest stopped and said, “I smell roses”.
There it was, right in the middle of the 3 of us - this beautiful and very strong fragrance. I told the boys that Mary had joined in our hug.
I believe it was Mary’s sign to me - us- of her love and presence. I had completed my consecration to the Sacred Heart of Jesus throught the Immaculate Heart of Mary on this very feast day.
