Rose Struck

I have tried all Liis fragrances and Rose Struck is truly my number 1. I immediately bought a full size and it’s made its way into my top 5 in my collection! It’s a gorgeous jammy fruity rose and the matcha note is stunning. To me personally, it doesn’t scream rose - and I love that! It is not your grandmothers rose fragrance that’s for sure. I see it’s being compared to Eau Rose by Diptyque and I don’t see that comparison at all to my nose. Eau Rose is very citrusy where as Rose Struck is jammy & fruity. I’m new to the fragrance world but to me it’s an all seasons scent and an immediate love. My husband rarely ever comments on my perfumes and I can honestly say that 9 times out of 10 when I’m wearing Rose Struck he will comment how good it is. I do find the price to be very steep for only a 50ml! I got lucky and bought it from the Liis website when they had some sort of “perfectly imperfect” sale and I truly can’t find the imperfection on the bottle or box!

A dewy, garden fresh rose at the opening, beautifully balanced with light, airy sweetness from black currant and citrus. This is definitely not a beast performing rose scent but one I will continue to go back for, so I don't mind that I need to reapply throughout the day. It's perfect right out of the shower, as it is sort of reminiscent of a soapy or shampoo scent and undeniably fresh. I don't really get the matcha note described, there's nothing inherently earthy about the scent. The price tag on this one is a bit high, especially since it only lasts on my skin for a couple hours, but I have yet to find such a cool, fresh-picked, almost photorealistic, rose garden scent. It reminds me of sitting in my grandmother's garden as a kid, on a dewy morning with blooming roses perfuming the fresh, spring air. If you're a rose lover, this would be a great one to add to your collection- I get compliments every time I wear it.

First impression is great. It’s a rose scent for rose lovers, but it layers well with other scents. I’m wearing it with Wonderland Peony and it’s delightful. This is a winner. Update: This smells just like roses from my mom’s garden. It’s light and beautiful. It’s perfect from spring and summer. The tangerine and tea keep it fresh, and the black currant gives it a hint of sweetness. It’s really gorgeous, but not groundbreaking. It’s perfect for me. My other rose forward scents are better suited for fall and winter (Delina Exclusif, Dior’s La Colle Noire, Sisley’s Izia La Nuit, Twilly d'Hermes Eau Poivree, Tom Ford’s Noir de Noir, etc.). This is the lightest rose I own.

I originally purchased this perfume in the Liis discovery set to try Studied (which I ended up loving) but was unexpectedly drawn to the fresh, dewiness of Rose Struck the more I smelled it. It’s a very realistic smelling rose scent with the fruit and matcha notes serving to brighten the opening while the floral rose settles in with the dry down, but it’s not overpowering like some rose scents can be. On my skin, it lasts several hours and can still be smelled close to the skin after a full day. It also layers beautifully with Bo from Liis, I recommend trying out their discovery set because all of their perfumes have proven to be full bottle worthy for me so far!

This is the closest perfume I've found so far to a realistic fragrant tea rose, so I really appreciate the perfumer's effort at capturing that scent. The opening is extremely close to putting your nose in a tea rose and inhaling. As it dries down, the matcha note begins to dominate but the rose is still present. I agree with the reviewers who said there's a sourness to the dry down. If I were the perfumer, I'd consider adding some apple or perhaps some peach to make it even closer to that wonderful tea rose smell. The one scent I found that is almost identical to the tea rose I'm seeking is actually Mrs. Meyer's rose hand soap.

Now this is a true rose. But not just the flower itself - think of walking through a rose garden on a nice spring day. I felt like I could smell each blade of grass, and envisioned a little lady bug crawling up a rose stem. It's bright, it's floral, it's soft - and not powdery at all. This is a new age rose fragrance, not your grandma's powdery rose. Some florals make me sneeze, give me a headache, or make me want to scrub it off right away. But not Rose Struck. I'll have to wait for the dry down, but this is seeming like it belongs in my collection. Incredible!

A bright, clean, fresh, genuine rose. I'm enjoying it enormously. There are a couple of roses I like better, but not many. This is up there with Jo Malone's White Rose and Lemon Leaves and Sisley's Izia. Also Floris's A Rose For... I like it a lot, I think I even love it. June is the month of rose and romances, wind and moonlight. I'll be wearing it all month. I may mix a couple of roses together. Fun. I'll probably back it up with my precious roll-on bottle of Roses de Chloe.

This is a love for me as someone who is very picky when it comes to floral fragrances, especially roses. The opening is bright citrusy and tangy, the tangerine is definitely the star. As it continues to dry down and stay closer to the skin it begins to get softer and fluffier as the citrus notes fade away leaving a soft pretty rose skin scent. The dry down reminds me of byredos young rose with a touch of citrus added. It is youthful, bright, and perfect for spring and summer.

I really like this but there are definitely more affordable alternatives like Philosophy's Ballet Rose or even Rose Water Ivy from Bath and Body Works. It shares the same top notes as Chloe Roses but I find this one to be a little more fruity. I was very excited to see a matcha note but I can't detect it at all. How unfortunate! Luckily, this scent lasts on my skin longer than I expected, especially for these light floral fragrances.

This is VERY green, like smelling a rose just cut from the bush. It's fresh and juicy and just downright delicious. I can't express exactly how beautiful this is. It is definitely light, much lighter than my other rose options ( Delina Exclusif, Delina La Rosee, Regimes des Fleurs Little Flowers), but that makes it perfect for swelteringly hot summer days. I really love this.

rose struck is a polite scent, keeping its fragrance close to solely the user and someone who hugs them very tightly. by no means is the matcha as potent as ceremonial grade but more so a light green pre-sweetened package that saved you a few bucks. i'd describe it as rose water and a watered down matcha somehow ended up in the same bowl, i love this scent.

Fresh, dewy rose. I can smell the stem too, that green note, which might be what's listed here as matcha tea. It's clean, not at all heavy or oppressive. I wish it projected better, but it's quite lovely. Smells like: That friend who always gives you incredibly thoughtful handmade birthday gifts.

The rose in this scent - and make no mistake, it's mostly a rose scent - reminds me of Stella EDP, the original release. I've been sad Stella is discontinued but maybe I don't need to be so sad now, because Rose Struck is on the scene. Off to buy a FB.

a pretty lovely and floral rose scent, not too old lady but a very nice young lass comes to mind. kind of like if you chewed up rose and tangerine gummies and then drooled them onto your skin. not vegetal at all, lightly heady.

If you enjoy rose without the sickly sweet/amber that usually accompanies it (like Delina), this one is great. Citrus-y and green with a soft, sweet rose as it dries down. Definitely one of my favorite rose scents so far.

Very clean, young rose. Subtle, gentle and beautiful. Too bad it only lasts 30 min on my skin. I am looking for something similar that has longevity. If anyone knows of another rose fragrance similar to this...hit me up.

As someone who has always been averse to citrus and recently decided rose was not for her- the tangerine is delicious and makes this such a fresh, youthful rose. Similar to Delina but a bit softer and less tart.

Smells like rose scented soap that you’d find in a fancy hotel. It’s such a pretty rose with some tang! Perfect for summer.

very pretty sweet rose scent with a citrus and green tea background. reminds me of tocca bianca, which lasts longer on me.

I love this Rose. There's something a little effervescent about it! Really great fragrance if you like rose!
