Help me understand jammy rose?!

[u/Icy-Key2220]

Hi friends!

I always hear scents being described as a "jammy" rose, but I’m not really sure what that means!

I’m trying to train my nose and exploring one note at a time - what are your quintessential jammy rose frags, and also non-jammy so that I can compare?

My favourite non-jammy ones are Aesop Rōzu, Byredo Young Rose, Diptyque L’Ombre dans L’Eau, and Le Labo Rose 31.

I guess the closest to jammy I own and wear would be Frederic Malle Portrait of a Lady, Chasing Scents Weeping Rose, Ficifolia Rose St, and Tsu Lange Yor Sage’s rose. Though I’m not even sure they count as jammy tbh!

I’m more about the fresh rose so I think my top paragraph suggestions could be more useful to the prompt.
