Ashley Spivey, Season 15 Ashley Spivey, a nanny from North Carolina, got Brad Womack's First Impression Rose on his second journey to find love.

Lindzi Cox, Season 16 Lindzi Cox was the woman who grabbed Bachelor Ben Flajnik's initial attention, but she didn't get the final rose. Lindzi was the runner-up to arguably the most successful villain in the show's history: Courtney Robertson . Lindzi later starred on season three of Bachelor Pad. Nick Ray - Getty Images

Tierra LiCausi, Season 17 Born-again Bachelor Sean Lowe didn't hand out one First Impression Rosehe doled out 12. The shake-up caused some drama on arrival night (which is typically the most boring and drama-free) as the 30 contestants anticipated a rose with every conversation. One of the lucky women to receive a rose before the ceremony was that season's villain, Tierra LiCausi. In fact, Tierra got a First Impression Rose before she even entered the mansion. Tierra's tumultuous run on The Bachelor came to an end right before the final four. Francisco Roman - Getty Images

AshLee Frazier, Season 17 Professional organizer AshLee Frazier made it all the way to the final three before Sean dumped her after she gave a detailed description of what she wanted her engagement ring to look like. Too bad that didn't work. Her most controversial moment, though, was her fight with Tierra . Rick Rowell - Getty Images

Desiree Hartsock, Season 17 Desiree Hartsock also caught Sean's eye on night one. Desiree was sent home after an intense hometown date where her brother called Sean a "playboy." That all didn't matter in the long run, though. Desiree went on to be the ninth Bachelorette and marry Chris Siegfried, who proposed on her finale. Rick Rowell - Getty Images

Catherine Giudici, Season 17 The most notable First Impression Rose recipient was Catherine Giudici. What makes her so special? Well, she also got the final rose.

Jackie Parr, Season 17 Tattletales rarely win. Jackie Parr didn't make it past week five after receiving a First Impression Rose from Sean.

Leslie Hughes, Season 17 Having an interesting job doesn't always get you far. Poker dealer Leslie Hughes got a First Impression Rose from Sean on night one, but she only made it four weeks.

Sarah Herron, Season 17 Sarah Herron quickly became a fan-favorite among Bachelor Nation, and it shows Sean had good taste in at least some of his First Impression Rose recipients. Sean didn't see a future with her, though, and sent her home during a group date week six. Since then, Sarah appeared on seasons one and three of Bachelor In Paradise. Rick Rowell - Getty Images

Sharleen Joynt, Season 18 Opera singer (and now Bachelor recapper ) Sharleen Joynt didn't provide the typical reaction to receiving Juan Pablo Galavis' First Impression Rose. Sharleen famously said she wasn't feeling much chemistry with JP, but accepted the rose nonetheless. Her exit was just as shocking. She left right before hometowns and after Juan Pablo told his friends he thought she could be the one. Looks like Sharleen dodged a bullet. Rick Rowell - Getty Images

Britt Nilsson, Season 19 Chris Soules had one hell of a cast, but there was one woman who stood out night one: Britt Nilsson. The waitress from Hollywood secured the first rose of the season and wasn't eliminated until week 7 when she said she couldn't see herself in Chris' remote hometown of Arlington, Iowa. Britt almost became The Bachelorette when the show pitted her and Kaitlyn Bristowe against each other in the season 11 premiere. Rick Rowell - Getty Images

Olivia Caridi, Season 20 Ben Higgins gave his First Impression Rose to the villain of his season, Olivia Caridi. She solidified her status on the show when she compared contestant and single mother Amanda Stanton to watching an episode of Teen Mom . In one of the most dramatic (and funny) exits in Bachelor history, Ben sent Olivia home during a two-on-one with Emily Ferguson. The date took place on an island, leaving Olivia stranded there, teary-eyed and red-nosed. Rick Rowell - Getty Images

Rachel Lindsay, Season 21 It looked like fourth time was the charm for perpetual Bachelor Nick Viall when he gave his First Impression Rose to lawyer Rachel Lindsay.

Chelsea Roy, Season 22 The single mom from Portland came in hot on Arie Luyendyk Jr.'s season. Chelsea was the red-herring villain of the season, so it was controversial when the "Kissing Bandit" gave his first rose to her. Chelsea's villain status was taken by Krystal, and Chelsea sort of faded into the background. She was eliminated before the final seven and went onto Bachelor In Paradise season five with no luck in finding love. Paul Hebert - Getty Images

Hannah Godwin, Season 23 The virgin Bachelor Colton Underwood gave his First Impression Rose to Hannah Godwin, who made it to the final three. Her journey was interrupted by the iconic fence jump heard around the world. On an episode of the Bachelor Party podcast , Chris Harrison discussed that moment and how production thought Hannah G. was the frontrunner, not Colton's now-girlfriend, Cassie Randolph. Everything worked out for Hannah, though, because she got engaged to Dylan Barbour on season six of Bachelor In Paradise. Rick Rowell - Getty Images
