Tautology
tautologies
1.
a. Needless repetition of the same sense in different words; redundancy.
Couldn't help but wonder, disregarding the ''Essence'' bit: why, on the right, it's merely ''Rose''. (Which bit of the plant?) However, on the left it's necessary to tell us it's both a blossom and a flower.

''Blossom'', it seems only gets a mention in conjunction with retail, weddings, etc. or, alternatively ...''Blossom was an American sitcom broadcast on NBC from...........''
A flower, however....
''A flower, sometimes known as a bloom or blossom, is...........''
DUH?!?!?
