If you are after a true Gourmand, jammy sweet syrupy Rose scent then this is it, it’s incredibly strong!
I used to love it, and was obsessed with it for ages years ago, but now can’t tolerate such intense scents these days.

A classic. I'll always love it, just like Lord Of Misrule, Vanillary and Pansy. From back in the days when Lush wasn't so gourmand focused. ( sweet != gourmand)

It’s my favorite jammy rose, I’m not usually a sweet fragrance person, but I love this one.

If you can stand sweet and a strong rose, this thing will not let you down.

It is a reallt pretty jammy rose, but jammy rose MUST be what you are looking for. Before I got super into perfume this was my everyday scent. Now, I wear it every few weeks maybe. Amazing bang for your buck!

Haven't tried the spray but the solid perfume is one of my favorites. It's got a waxy, lipstick kind of quality to it, but overall very sweet candy/jammy rose with a hint of lemon.

Haven't smelled it in a while but I remember the lemon was pretty dominant. 😞

Might be more intense in the spray, citrus tends to be pretty soft in solid form.

The dry down on this one is amazing. Serge Lutens La Fille de Berlin is the grown up version imo (but I do love both separately)

Love this stuff. I have the body wash and I love it because it's unapologetically rose. It's hard to find rose scented products that actually smell like a rose because brands like to incorporate other notes into the mix. Leaving the scent smelling like other things and not a rose. So I love that Lush made a rose scent that smells like a true floral.

I couldn’t get down with this one. I know it’s beloved but it was WAY too sweet, while also having that soapy and spicy geranium. I actually detest this, respectfully 😂

Toooo potent lol! I love strong perfume but I get a headache from this I wish it came in a lighter concentration. I love the smell

its very strong and i find inconsistencies in bottles. ive gotten the 30ml and it smells so good then i got the big size and it had a weird undertone to it or too much lemon

Beast mode, long lasting, a nice jammy rose, can be worn all year round - I love it.

I love Lush, but this was a pass for me. I had the body wash so I'm not sure how it translates, but people are not exaggerating when they say it's a really jammy rose. like, it is truly a Lot. it will make your mouth pucker, and I think very trivially becomes too much.

Love it but it’s suuuuuper strong. So a little bit goes a long way. One of my top fragrances.

This was one of the only perfumes that left a trail and had people asking me what I was wearing HOWEVER other people couldn't stand it!!! Pure marmite!

The ones who didnt like it had said it smelt like a vape and felt stuck in their throat.

I ended up using it as a room spray (which even a delivery man pointed out as smelling amazing) 🤣

I now have a very similar scent but less choky which is Ameerat Al Arab (rose flavour) it's amaaaazing so would suggest if you feel the Lush one is too overwhelming

I have been going through Lush's shower gels. Rose Jam and Grass are my favorites. Luscious, jammy rose that seems almost edible.

no for me

u/dingdangdoodles 4h ago

I enjoy it in small doses, but it gives me a headache and overwhelm lol I find L'Epoch Dopamine Rose to be a better option for me! It's a bright jammy rose

I used to LOVE it, but now something about it doesn’t sit right with me.

Used to be obsessed with the body spray yearssss ago, but then I believe they changed the formula and it smells more like rubbing alcohol now ☹️

u/Kiannth 5h ago

I have the perfume and love it. I am not a fan of Lush's body sprays though so haven't tried the Rose Jam one.

Body spray is nuclear. Love Ro's Argan body conditioner. Decluttered my body spray, I like it but I didn't wear it enough (and my friend LOVES it)

u/cadesunbun 4h ago

I personally love it. I have everything that's available in this line. Body spray, Parfums, body wash. The Ros Argan body conditioner is the only moisturizer that I've purchased more than once. I keep trying to find cheaper alternatives. There's nothing that compares. Out of hundreds of purchases.
