I jumped at the Boxing day sales and got this bottle of rose jam in a gift box that was being cleared out. I wanted to give Rose Jam a try because it is highly rated on here. So my expectations of this shower gel was high.
These shower gels typically come in clear bottles with the black and white lush labbeling on them. The lids of these bottles are easy to get product out. I find these bottles quite durable as I have dropped them a few times. The consistency of this gel is flowy and is a rich coloured red reminiscent of a Rose colour. This scent reminds me of a smokey rose with hints of lemon in it. Can smell Turkish delight but has a smokey background to it.
I like to apply this to my shower puff and it lathers really well. I only need about a 50 cent piece and it goes very far. I noticed that this scent makes my shower smell good afterwards.
If you enjoy deep turkish delight rose scents this definately is a winner. Im not really into this smokey smell . To me it smells like patchouli, Ive noticed it in another shower gel too. For a 100 ml bottle I got about 10 washes and theres still over half left. It's definitely great value for money and good quality. I however definately won't buy this one again as the scent just wasn't my cup of tea.
I truly thought that nothing could top my love for the snow fairy shower gel, but then I tried out this. I still absolutely adore snow fairy but this jut beats it.
I'm currently using a 500ml bottle which is the largest size bottle. I also managed to buy two more 500ml bottles in the boxing day sale so I'm pretty set with this scent for the next year which is lucky as this unfortunately is a limited edition product. It does thankfully come out twice a year for sale, I really hope lush never, ever discontinue this one! The packaging is really simple, just a plastic squeeze bottle. If you know anything about lush though, their focus isn't on flash packaging but more about sustainable, animal friendly products. This has a sticker on it which says exactly when it was made, who made it and when it is due to expire. It has a handy hint written on other products that share the same scent which is great to know. This is a handmade product but it surprised me to see how much the colour could change between batches. The bottle I'm currently using is a pinky red colour, my two other bottles are almost black!
The scent of this is so unique. It's a really rich, rose scent but not a typical rose scent. It's sweet, but not candy sweet. It says it has geranium oil and a hint of lemon added and while I can't really distinguish those notes, they just add something extra to this and make it not something you could find anywhere else.
I only need to use a small amount of this on a body puff and it lathers up really well. I find the scent lingers for an hour or so afterwards on my body but my bathroom smells amazing for quite a lot longer.
This can be quite expensive to purchase but I do feel it's worth it for that bit of extra luxury. It does sell at half price on boxing day but you need to be up early as this product sells out quickly!
I'd definitely recommend trying this one out or even just giving it a sniff in store when it's available
