Jubilee Scents SM26 Stella is an Eau de Parfum. SM26 Stella opens with Mandarin, Rose, and Peony, settles into a heart of Rose, and dries down to a base of Woody Notes and Amber. Jubilee Scents's SM26 Stella carries a Statement verdict, a floral-led wear.

SM26 fills a real gap left by the now-discontinued Stella McCartney Stella, and its own reviewers say it's a spot-on match, capturing the full-petaled, salty-dry rose character well, though it lacks some of the original's woody depth in the finish.

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Also Works:
Spring Fall

A full rose floral that suits spring most naturally but wears comfortably into early autumn.

Best Occasions

Also Works:
Date Casual

Romantic and classic enough for dates and smart-casual wear; not loud enough to be a formal-evening statement.

About

Stella built its reputation on a rose too voluptuous to read as a simple floral, a salty, dry rose rather than a sweet one, sitting on an amber-woody base. Since the original has been discontinued, Jubilee's SM26 has picked up a devoted following among people who couldn't find a close match elsewhere. Customer reviews describe long-time Stella fans, devastated when the original vanished from shelves, finding this version 'spot on' after trying other replicas that missed the mark. The dupe captures the rose-peony opening and the fuller, less sugary rose heart that defines the scent. Where it comes up slightly short is the base: the original's amber-woody dry-down had more textured depth, giving the rose a grounded, almost mineral quality, while SM26's finish is a touch flatter and fades a little sooner. For a fragrance genuinely unavailable elsewhere, that's a small price to pay.
