Rose Jam 2012

This has been my signature scent since i discovered it some 6 years ago. As another review here hinted at - Sofia Coppola’s Marie Antoinette would wear this in her later more extravagant era - my exact reference. The ultimate decadent sugary, fruity but also rich and musky scent with the most surprising sparkling citrus notes peaking through. I’ve had THE most compliments wearing this out of any perfumes in my life so far. I’ve gotten - spicy honey, turkish delight, cinnamon, s*x, strawberries, rose petals... to me it’s all of these notes and more. It’s so luscious that two spritzes give you the ultimate sillage but it’s so morish that you want to keep spritzing yourself anyways. My coats smell of it for weeks in winter, it even cuts through the scent of smokey bars and clubs, people are stopped in their tracks when i spray it when out & about. It’s a rare gem and more than fair at price for what you get, it should definitely be considered niche.<3

I adore this fragrance. It was actually the very first perfume I bought for myself. I first smelled it on a friend, and kept saying "what smells like cinnamon rolls?" until we figured out it was her perfume. When I smell this, it always reminds me of some kind of very sweet baked good. Even though there isn't cinnamon in it, I definitely smell something sweet and spicy which is probably the coumarin in the tonka bean. This is incredibly long lasting and pretty strong. It's happy, bright, ultra-sweet, and beautiful. Unfortunately I no longer wear it every day because it's a bit too strong and sweet for work in my opinion, but it's a lovely going out fragrance. My only complaint is that it leaves an orange stain on skin and clothes, so beware of that! Overall though, this is probably my favorite scent of all time.

Rose lovers know a lot of rose perfumes can just be utterly horrible... powdery, grandma, synthetic smells. This perfume is a true jammy rose but with an earthy spicy twist. It has that scent that lush does well, like a health food store that smells like fresh produce and incense. It is certainly powerful so beware, I use this perfume very sparingly. It is warm, spicy, herbal and floral. It is the only lush perfume I have ever loved as I don’t usually love earthy type scents. But this will be a repurchase for me as long as it’s around. On me I smell mostly sweet fresh roses, warm spices like cinnamon, a touch of freshness like fresh cut lemon leaves. I love it and don’t care if anyone around me hates it.

I adore this perfume! I’ve been hunting for my perfect rose perfume for so long and I think I’ve found it :) I often find rose perfumes too sweet but this one smells a bit earthier or more natural. You can detect the more subtle notes of lemon and tonka bean but this perfume is overwhelmingly rose. When the reviews say this perfume fills a room it’s no joke and no exaggeration - it’s STRONG. I would spray this on myself in the locker room upon arriving to work and would still be able to smell it in the air by the time of my break! This was my first Lush perfume and I was pleasantly surprised by it’s longevity - I will say I’ve found Lush perfumes in general to have good staying power.

I haven't been able to find the perfume version of this, but I use the rose jam body wash (they sell it in stores during the holidays, so don't be fooled by the over priced ebay ones touting it as "discontinued" -it's not. It's just seasonal). It is probably my favorite rose scent. This really smells like fresh jam made from rose petals. The body wash lists goji berry juice and I think that it what really makes this special. It makes it just sweet enough to make me want to eat it and keeps it from being your grandma's powdery rose scented soap. If you're looking for a true rose scent, you're going to want to check this out.
