Rose Jam 2019

Give me roses n jam or give me death! I'll take these roses n jam, thank you very much! Rose Jam --- how you make my heart sing! This is a luscious, deep, super jammy rose with a nice level of sweetness, making it girly but not immature. I adored this the first time I smelled it, and proceeded to buy a travel size. What really bowled me over with this scent, though, was putting my coat on the day after having sprayed Rose Jam. While on my daily dog walk I kept getting wafts of this gorgeous rosy scent, even though I hadn't sprayed anything on that afternoon. Finally I was able to locate the source of the aroma to my coat sleeve, then recalled I'd sprayed Rose Jam on the day prior. It clings so firmly and beautifully to clothing, and lasts on skin ALL DAY!!! I have serious perfume-eating skin, so very few in my collection pass this test. It also projects nicely. I made the bold decision to wear this to work the other day (I'm a teacher), and a five year old student near me said "something smells sweet!" I had a feeling I knew the source, so asked: "What does it smell like?" He said "like strawberry yogurt," which I thought was quite an apt description! Rose Jam is simply gorgeous and one I will treasure for a long time to come. Bravo again, LUSH!!!

a few months ago a lush employee gave me a sample of the rose jam shower gel and it awakened a love for rosy, syrupy scents in me. i bought the shower gel because i loved the scent so much. i tried the body spray and found it didn't quite live up to the shower gel's scent. the perfume is much closer in my opinion. lush is quite good at being photorealistic when it comes to their scents and rose jam is no exception. this perfume encapsulates the idea of 'rose jam' so well. as expected it opens very rosy and syrupy with hints of lemon in the background. this is a very decadent and sweet scent that i just find so addicting! in terms of sillage and longevity i've found that this is strong in both of those aspects. a little goes a long way. this could become VERY cloying if oversprayed so moderation is important when it comes to rose jam. on my skin this lasts about 7 hours and on clothes even longer. the sillage isn't crazy- i don't think it takes up a whole room when you walk in but it definitely radiates around me enough for people to notice when you get close. i personally love this so much but if you're not into super sweet scents then this probably won't be for you.

heyheyyyy!! this is an all-time favorite. as a lover of sweet perfumes, this has gone on to become my signature scent, to the point where i’ve gotten the spray and two solid perfumes. true to its name, it is a very sweet candied rose smell. on first spray, your nose is bombarded by the smell of sugar and rose. SO much rose. extremely gourmand, and a very confident scent. do NOT buy this if you have an aversion to sweet perfumes. you will die. the middle is my favorite part of the perfume. it’s comforting and all-enveloping, the spice reminding me so much of my mother’s homemade jellies with clove oil when i was a child. a warm hug meant to be smeared onto bread, sticking to your lips and teeth. this is the kind of perfume that never leaves your skin once you let it dry down, it just stays sticking to your clothes and hair as you walk down the street. i have gotten so many compliments from people while wearing this perfume. i smell like a freaking rose lollipop. my boyfriend cannot stop HUFFING me whenever i spray this on—it’s just so feminine and cute!! again, do NOT buy this if you hate sweet smells and rose. it will never leave you.

I tried it on the skin out of curiosity as i'm normally not a number one rose perfumes fan. First 15 minutes it smelled weirdly juicy and i found it super unpleasant. Wait tho. After some time it settled so wonderfully, i couldn't stop smelling the spot where i sprayed it. It's like sniffing the rose flower itself, though exaggerated, somehow powdery while also fresh. A little oldschool with a cheeky twist. It was an art piece in the bottle. Makes you stop and smell roses. No other choice. They are in your face and you have to stop whatever you're doing and notice them. And you want to do so cause it's sooo good. It was the most surprising beast-mode perfume for me. The smell reminded me of the taste of turkish delight candy. And of spring and walks in a garden. On the skin it lasts long and is a bit sticky. I'm still contemplating whether to have this in my collection. I love the smell, but somehow doesn't feel like i'm one with the perfume. It's more like the perfume exists in the surrounding air and i can only be amazed by it. Still giving this 5/5.

This is really nostalgic for me. I lived in China 10 years ago and one desert Ive been dreaming of since is Yunnan flower cakes. With a name like Rose Jam i was hopeful and it truly didnt dissapoint, this smells exactly like the filling of those cakes which is rose petals turned into jam. Spraying this really takes me back to a happy period in my life when I tried those cakes for the first time. My only complaint is this is a beast mode fragrance, one spray is really enough to smell it the whole day. I prefer to spray my outfit the night before so the scent has time to settle down so its not as overpowering, or spraying far from my nose so i just catch it every now and then. I do love how long it lasts though and that a little goes a long way. This sticks around forever on fabric, i can smell it days later. I usually dont enjoy floral fragrances at all but its a very edible scent, because while i don't like to wear roses i love to eat them or drink rose tea. If youre a gourmand lover give this a shot.
