@Maki,

You may have a point. We still don't know why Cinder's dress lights up like that when she uses her powers so it's possible that you can have aura-reactive materials in your clothing that create effects when you trigger your aura.

I can think of one combat use for the rose petals - In a close fight, imagine trying to focus on your target if it keeps suddenly generating clouds of bright petals that float around, disrupting its silhoutte and getting in your face. Imagine trying to aim at a target at range when its outline keeps on breaking up like that.
