** Fellow matador [[Street Fighter|Vega]] would later steal this intro for himself, but made it even cooler by not moving at all as the rose was diced into smithereens.
* Soukichi Banba (Big One) from the ''[[Super Sentai]]'' series ''[[JAKQ Dengekitai]]'' had the rose as his symbol. He could use them as throwing weapons, and always sniffed one before transforming.
* Don Flamenco in ''[[Punch -Out!!]] Wii'' sniffs a rose before the fight starts. In the NES version, he can be seen holding a rose with his teeth when he makes his entrance. In the Title Defense rematch, he carries around a black rose to show that he [[Took a Level In Badass]].
* Humorously used when [[The Colbert Report|Stephen Colbert]] had to get his photo taken for an Army ID when he trains to prepare for going to Iraq. He isn't allowed to smile, so on the second try he whips out a rose.
* In one episode of ''[[Full Metal Panic!]] Fumoffu'', an elderly man thinks that Tsubaki and Sousuke are going to rape him. In his [[Squick|creepy envisioning of what he thinks is about to happen]], roses are used as censors. Ick.
* Sir Richard Rose, the [[Final Boss]] of classic SNES game ''[[Sunset Riders]]''.
* In ''[[Dissidia Final Fantasy]]'', [[Final Fantasy II|Firion]] carries with him a "wild rose" which symbolizes the Wild Rose Rebellion from his game, and his dream. Later on it turns out that the rose was {{spoiler|created by [[Final Fantasy IV|Golbez]] to inspire him}}. Funnily enough, the rose changes hands quite a bit. Halfway through [[Final Fantasy VII|Cloud]] and [[Final Fantasy I|Warrior Of Light]]'s stories, [[Final Fantasy VII|Sephiroth]] steals it, Cloud takes it back, and it eventually gets back to Firion.
