Lush is one of my favorite houses. I think they are underrated. Their fragrances are very unique. My favorites are Twilight/Sleepy, Breath of God, and Lord of Misrule. I enjoy exploring them so much because they are not like anything else. Lust is not for me. It is so strong that I had to put the solid perfume in a plastic bag because I could smell it across the room.
LOL! Wow, that is strong! I need to give Breath of God a try. I got the little wash card of it, but it didn't have much of a scent to it so I still feel like I don't really know what the perfume would smell like. Thanks!
This was SOOOOOOO helpful, I have always been so curious about their perfume line but I’ve never come across a youtuber reviewing them, so thank you! 💙
Yeah, I think they get overlooked. I think their perfume game was really upped when they started the Gorilla line. I'm hoping they continue to produce unique fragrances, but Simon Constantine is no longer making their fragrances as he started his own house called And Perfumes.
I have not seen Rentless before or maybe I hadn't noticed. You are so right it is best to give Lush perfumes time to set. I love Yog Nog too I have the body spray and shower gel, love snow fairy very sweet! Thank you for sharing ❤️
I need to try Snow Fairy. I just have the shower gel of Yog Nog this year, but I wish I would have purchased the perfume when they used to sell it. Thanks, Abi!
I blind bought What Would Love Do, Lust and Breath of God. None of them is a disappointment or a challenge to me, though Lust is on the correct side of brave I think. All three outperform much of the more expensive stuff I have, hence I came here, hoping for quick clear summaries of some others. That's what I got, so I subscribed. I'll try one or two of your top three.
Thanks, John! Glad it was helpful! Yeah, Lust is really something! They are definitely very good performing fragrances. Rose Jam is a very strong one in particular!
I used to be a lush junkie! lol! I had Lord of Misrule in a body conditioner and I remember when the American Cream conditioner was popular, I used it...alot! lol! I have 4 Lush fragrances at the moment; Vanillary, Smuggler's Soul, Breath of God and Himalaya. They're all lovely! I totally agree with you about Lush fragrances on skin. Himalaya was quite challenging for me in the opening. When I sprayed it on my skin at the store, it was a hard no until I got home and the dry down was... ugh...so good! Also a Yog Nog fan. I had a few of the Yog Nog scented bath products last holiday season, they're great! Great video Tara! Really Enjoyed.
Thanks, Amina! I have heard a lot of good things about Himalaya but have never tried that one. I wish I could find the Yog Nog perfume. I love that scent!
The first time I went to lush store, i was walking around and went to perfume section. I smell a few and didnt like any. And when I touched lust, i was so surprise and keep smelling it. I guess i just love jasmine perfume. My signature scent is TM Alien
I find that a lot of Americans sometimes react quite bad to Lush's blackcurrant scents and I think it's a background issue. In the UK we grow up with blackcurrant as a mainstream scent and flavour- it's in everything. I can understand why some American's don't take to it as it's quite a potent scent, especially if you're going for the fragrance of the blackcurrant leaf.
I love how you explain in detail✨ sometimes when I watch other UA-camrs they're like I love everything,like how am I supposed to know what to buy then? 😂
I've never tried anything from Lush/Gorilla. I think I've only walked into the store twice in my life. Didn't think they would be anything good. Now I'll have to give them a try. Thanks Tara!
I love vanilliary, Lord of Misrule, sun, and 29 high street! Sun is citrus based, absolutely does not last, but it’s just a yoga scent for me lol pop on before a class, isn’t offensive, is bright & uplifting, and I don’t even feel like I’m wasting it when I shower after lol
Wow! You are INCREDIBLE at guessing notes! The citrus in Rentless is grapefruit and I spray it on myself after a sweaty shift at work and it makes me feel fresh and less anxious! Junk smells gorgeous on my skin but it always gives me a headache which really upsets me as I didn't realise until after I bought it. Lord of Misrule smells like a tasty dream on clothing but it smells like petrol/gasoline on my skin chemistry somehow. Vanillary has been my favourite for more than six years and up until Jan 2019, this was the perfume that I wore exclusively. I have ordered some Rose Jam online so I'll let you know what I think of that. I didn't like the scent of the shower gel when my mum was gifted some last year and she let me take a sniff but I recently bought the Rose Jam bubbleroon and I consistently smell it and I like it so much that I don't even want to use it yet!
Thank you so much! I need to try that Rose Jam Bubbleroon! Sounds amazing! I just got 3 more perfumes during their Boxing Day sale, but they haven't arrived in the mail yet.
@@Olfactofiles sounds lovely. I haven't used any of those! I bought Furze last year after my favourite shower oil of the same name and scent got continued...but I just didn't like it. Furze smelt a lot like coconut but in a very green way and it wasn't quite me. The notes are mimosa and something else.
I want to try that one again! I remember spraying it in the store a long time ago, but haven't smelled in since. That's definitely a favorite of many people!
I’m just starting to get into the fragrance side of lush, and I thought Karma would be my favorite but I LOVE breath of god! It’s crazy how much I don’t like the Lush perfumes when I first spray them in the store, but then they dry down to much prettier scents and I can smell the fruity notes more. I also loooove the space girl and Sakura body sprays. Something about all of their scents is so nostalgic
Oh, I need to check out those two body sprays! I haven't had the chance to try Breath of God yet but I've heard a lot of people say it's a really good one! Thank you!
I love a lot of their fragrances. Lol I have American Cream, Cardamom Coffee, LOM, Pansy, Rentless, Tank Battle, and Vanillary. Body Sprays- HIWTK, Rose Jam, Sex Bomb, Tramp, Twilight. 💚 Rentless is breathtaking!
Rentless projects 10 feet from me no lie. Lush is easy on the trigger....which is hard for me haha 😄 As usual great video, and its nice to see a lush review on fragrances. 🥰
Lust is my favourite perfume and I love it a lot - but Lust has lots of jasmine in it and when I was working at Lush I learnt that jasmine is naturally indolic, so it smells like BO or cat pee to some people 😂
The accidental halitosis 😂 And heck, you can always keep Junk as a car freshener. Tell your friends that you have Junk in the trunk. Or....maybe not. 🚗 Believe it or not, I still haven't tried a single one from the brand! But you can be sure I'll be starting with Rentless!
American cream smells like those plastic baby dolls that are scented like baby powder, so weird but yet so good!😆 I highly recommend the Lush body spray Roller. It is absolutely beautiful!
I have always wanted to try some lush fragrances and i always get overwhelmed when i’m in the website... ❤️ Andreas also kinda reminded me about lush fragrances... 😁 a man who decided to live in a tank... yes i thought of a battle tank 😂 anyway, that rentless sounds really good... ❤️
LOL! Thanks, Paola! Rentless is really nice. I also love I'm Home (which I didn't include as it's discontinued). I think if you were going to blind buy one, American Cream might be the safest one.
The only Gorilla Perfume/ Lush fragrance I own is Sikkim Girls - Tuberose and Frangipani with just a hint of that dirty/indolic Jasmine. The frangipani does a good job I think of not letting it get too dirty. Thanks for this I actually keep forgetting that I have this fragrance and I really love wearing it on summer evenings! I only have one because I just don’t get in the city to try them that often but I should make more effort to go smell them.
Thanks, Cherie! I've heard a lot of good things about Sikkim Girls and am going to try to sample it next time I get into the store (who knows when that will be, though).
This is a great list, Tara. 😊 Yep, Vanillary is my favorite from Lush but I very much agree that these fragrances (typically) turn into something appealing once they have been given time to dry down and develop. I’m with you on Lust though; I tried really hard to love it. I don’t get a bad breath vibe from it 😄 but it is just SO strong to me. Never wanna wear that one in a closed space. Thank you so much for the shoutout; much appreciated. 😊💕
Hi, i just joined your channel and i’m so excited the first video i see is on Lush fragrances, i am like a broken record letting people know how lovely their fragrances are. I’m a Lust girl, i agree with you, when i first smelled it, i was a lil overwhelmed, i did not know what to think of it, but when you spray it on skin, the scent bubble is just intoxicating. When i say i get compliments, i literally have ppl follow me just to ask me what i’m wearing. It’s a sexy scent. Thank you and enjoying your channel. ❤️✨
I’ve never tried any Lush fragrances, if fact I didn’t know they made them until I joined the fragrance community! I’ve only been in Lush stores a couple of times. Great reviews!
We had a fragrance meet up in my area and we went to Lush. I'm interested in having a lush fragrance in my collection, but this was a decent look into them which is helpful. I was lost with the social distancing and all that I saw LOL. Great vid!!
Fabulous video mate 🙂 I've only tried 3, non have got me hooked yet. But there is so much crazy love for these. Our good friend Andreas certainly does love them. I think of what I've tried maybe Sapho is my favourite but not enough to probably want to own it. I must say tho it's a shop I've bought a lot of their other products from over the years. Anyways I do waffle on. Have a fab thanksgiving mate 🙂
Oh Tara, what a lovely video. I actually also don’t really like Lust (I tried it once and don’t even remember what it smells like; it was an instant no). The thing with Lush is their chunkiness that makes them, as you pointed out, rough around the edges. But that’s also why I enjoy them so much. They really feel different every time I wear them. I have to admit that Rentless is not my favourite fragrance ever 😊, but after your video I actually want to experience it again. Hmmm, I guess I’m just the Dirty kind of guy! I also love Dear John and some of their weird ones like Breath of God, The President’s Hat or The Devil’s Nightcap. These three were definitely not love at first sniff, but rather fragrances that slowly find their way into your heart. But in fact these are the ones that stay with you (if they aren’t discontinued 😂). Thanks so much for your wonderful house review! I really enjoyed it!
Thank you so much, Andreas! I really want to try Dear John and The Devi's Nightcap sometime. I've never even heard of the President's Hat, so if it ever was sold in the U.S. it isn't now, sadly. I think Amina like Breath of God as well, but I might be mistaken. I appreciate you inspiring me to revisit these fragrances!
Thank you for your video, very informative. I’m cruelty free since 2017 and I decided to buy cruelty free fragrance this years. I had so many none cruelty free perfume to use up before buying more. Unfortunately they just stayed in my collection because I didn’t want to wear them and having people asking me which perfume I’m wearing.
I’m still looking for the lush fragrance that I like enough to buy, I almost bought Lust but then I tried it again and didn’t enjoy it as much, vallinary is nice, think my fave is Tank Battle which only comes in the larger size I believe, may even be discontinued now. This was helpful I’ll have another go when we come out of lockdown 😁 Thanks Tara
I would really like to try Tank Battle. It sounds interesting. Have you ever tried I'm Home? I didn't include it in this video, but it's another top rated one for me.
I love Lush Tara great video! I must say I dislike Lush Lust it is awful and i am not sorry to say that lol! I bought it years ago and had to throw it away! Vanillary is my favourite out of all the ones I have tried but I disliked it at first until it dried down and I was pleasantly surprised. I absolutely love their body sprays, they smell much better than a lot of their perfumes - Let me continue watching
Enjoyed the presentation. Thank you. I have Rose Jam and I am liking it quite a bit. I barely received yesterday. I also have a sample of marshmallow fluff which came with purchase (Mercari Seller) and yes very jammy and syrupy but I love!!! Curious about Rentless
I never tried this house before. Delicious delights always have great reviews on this house. I think you said smuggler soul, the one with lemon grass and sandalwood. This one sounds amazing . Rose jam also sounds interesting since I’m starting to appreciate rose. Dirty also sounds good, I enjoy green leafy scents and it has mint, sounds good. Great review. I agree that on skin fragrances smell way different and you can really tell if you like or not more on skin. Thanks for sharing. Great review. I think the I’m gonna get rose jam, and smuggler soul( I hope this is the name).
Hey Pat! Thanks so much! Yes, they have some really unique fragrances! I like that they have most of time in 30ml as well as I'd rather have more variety so I don't need 100ml of everything. Yeah, Delicious Delights/Eau de Cupcakes has been doing great reviews on these!
Thanks, Katie! I really want to try All Good Things. I had the Golden Pear soap last year and loved the way that smelled but haven't tried the body spray.
Hi Tara !! What a great review ! I have Rose Jam body spray and that stuff is nuclear if I spray it upstairs in my closet my kids can smell it all the way downstairs 😳 and that’s only one spray ! I also have Rentless - when I first bought it I don’t think I was ready for it nor did I appreciate it - I had tried it a couple months ago and Wowsa was it fantastic ! It feels like the holidays to me - warm, cozy, inviting maybe not for others but definitely to myself ☺️ great reviews :) I also can’t get into Lust I totally get that stinky breath from it too haha !! Happy Thanksgiving 🦃
LOL, so glad I"m not the only one who smells that, Melissa! I had the same experience with Rentless. I tested in the store once and didn't care for it, but then I came back to it later and fell in love. Have a great Thanksgiving!
Hi Tara, So happy you have Lush fragrances on your channel 😊 my favs are 1000 kisses deep, American Cream, Rose jam and Vanillary...your comment on the Lust scent is too funny, I’m not gonna lie, I’m not a fan either!!! 😅great vid!!
Dirty was such a first love of fragrance to me... i never into fragrances but when I study abroad in England, I got a chance to visit Lush every now and then. I find their store is quite unique. so i try Dirty and omg i know it smells like toothpaste but my liking towards mint is out of this world. it really gives me tranquility. I haven't had or bought lush for years after I graduated. we don't have Lush here so it's hard to purchase. but it wasn't a repeat purchase too when I live there lol. today I drop by Lush store (and yes they're available in my country now). as soon as I try this fragrance, it gives me a lot of nostalgia 😭😭 i had to buy bcos of that purpose... I'm quite happy. although not a fave scent. but i buy for the sake of being nostalgic. the only thing I treasure in my life 😢😇 kinda disappointed with their packaging/design cuz I don't remember the name but I vividly remember the blue waves. now it looks cheap & simple
I love your house overviews. The only perfume I bought from them was Cardamom Coffee. It smelled ok in the store on paper but when I brought it home and sprayed it on me it smelled like if someone had spilled day old coffee in an ashtray full of ashes and cigarette butts. 🤢I returned it and got the Big body spray. I also just bought a couple more body sprays...Coco Loco (which they sent by accident so they let me keep it) and Snow Fairy! I was chatting with Barry about that one. He had just bought it and said it smelled like candy floss, which is perfect for Christmas. 😄Can I just also say that I am annoyed with how they have all the bottles of perfume out where anyone can spray them. I saw a lot of people spraying bottles that WERE NOT testers. I prefer buying a bottle that has not been sprayed. Thanks, needed to get that off my chest. LOL
Oh no! My store had the testers pretty obviously displayed, though I suppose people could have sprayed the actual bottles as well. That's so frustrating! I usually order perfumes from their website anyway as my store doesn't usually have the 30ml sizes in stock and I prefer the smaller bottles if I can get them. I should try Snow Fairy. Abi (From Abi With Love) said she likes that one as well. Thanks, Jim!
I've been trying lots of Lush scents in the shop (here in New Zealand we are lucky not to have had major lockdowns). My favourites (that I bought) are Sikkim Girls, Rose Jam, Pansy, Goddess, Karma and What would Love Do. I sprayed Lust on myself in the shop and almost died. I tried it a couple of times to torture myself: I agree: major halitosis. I usually love Jasmine . I tried the solid version of it: that is MUCH easier to wear. I own that now and wear it quite often. The solid scents are a good way to try Lush scents. Thanks for the great video!
LOL! I laughed so hard when I read this because the exact same thing happened to me. Sprayed it on in store and almost had an immediate gag reflex! Ha! I'll look into the solid version whenever I am able to get back into the store. Thanks!
Thanks, I have been interested in Rentless in particular. I loved Lord of Misrule shower gel and I wondered if I should get the perfume. I like Rose Jam but there are jammy rose perfumes (by Montale and Mancera, etc.) that I have now that I like better. I also do not like Lust. I like Kerbside Violet, which you didn't review. A few years ago I went through a whole bottle of Kerbside Violet (for me to finish a bottle is unusual) and I haven't replaced the bottle but I have some in a solid perfume form but I don't use it because I think the solid perfume doesn't really do much but leave some grease on your skin.
Thanks, Christine! I've never smelled Kerbside Violet! I will have to be on the lookout for that one! I agree about the solid perfumes (not just Lush's, but in general). I also don't care for perfume oils for the same reason. I don't like anything greasy on my skin, probably because I'm super oily all on my own. Ha!
I still have a small tin of their solid perfume Death and Decay. Love this intense lily scent. I hardly ever apply it on my skin but it's do great to inhale 💜
I was really interested to hear what you thought about lust, I'm really torn about this fragrance, can't decide whether I like it or not! Its kind of intriguing to me and I keep wanting to go back to it... but it is very strong and as you say 'rough around the edges'. Great review!
Thanks, Sal! Yeah, I can't do Lust even though I've tried to wear it a few times. I have that unsure feeling about a few of theirs as you mentioned, but I definitely don't like Lust. LOL!
This is an intriguing House that is unknown to me. I don't think I would be able to wear a perfume called Junk :)))) I was wondering if you could do a video about the other perfume lovers' channels that you follow and like. I enjoy your videos every day...I go back to the old ones that I did not see because I am kind of new to your channel. Big hug from Transilvania!
Thanks, Cristina! I did a video like that which was a tag created by Emy's World of Fragrance. If you look back at my videos I think it's called My Fragrance Community Tag. Although there are probably a few more channels to add now, most of the ones I enjoy are in there.
I'm not too studied in lushs offerings so I'm really curious about these 😍 I do adore lust by them though 🤣 and road from Damascus is a gorgeous scent from them too.
I didn't love cardamom coffee but a lot of people do. I didn't find it offensive, though. I just wouldn't spend the money on a full bottle. Thanks for watching!
@@Olfactofiles hey y'all. I know! They always take the best ones, apparently cardamom coffee is gone too. Fame at last, man! (I'm not doing it on painkillers again 🤩😂😂)
I was just looking at the Lush site yesterday because I’ve been on a hunt for a good vanilla that doesn’t go powdery or dessert-like. I didn’t end up buying the vanilla fragrance because I wasn’t convinced it was what I was looking for. I’ve been hunting for a deep boozy vanilla that I can layer with other fragrances. Lemme know if you have any suggestions. 😊
I really like M. Micallef Note Vanillee. Another one you might want to try is Vanille by Mona di Orio, but I don't have a lot of experience with that one yet to have a complete opinion (just got a small sample recently). I love Guerlain Spiritueuse Double Vanille, though it's maybe only a tiny touch boozy. Hope you find something!
I blind brought frangipani. I was expecting the perfect cosy jumper fragrance. What I got instead was ill 🤮 the first perfume that has made me want to actually vomit. They dry down is quite nice but it takes about an hour to get to that dry down and I can't cope with it that long 🤮
LOL! That is awful! I just blind bought it as well. I need to test it on skin, but it's not a love. I also got Fresh As and am NOT a fan. Yeah, if it's that bad in the opening probably not worth it.
@@Olfactofiles I got fresh as aswel 🙈 smells like conifer trees and I'm a gardener so not what I really want to smell of. The frangipani smells better on the skin an hour after spraying 😅
LUSH has gone in a bad direction (in the UK at least) when they increased the prices, made their product towards children and stoped doing socail media.
Have you tried Lush fragrances? Do you have any favorites? I'd love to hear about it! Thanks for watching!!!
I'm still always looking for great scents.
🙋🏻♀️
Lust and what would love do
My favorite is Lust! 🌹
Love smuggler’s soul specially the dry down. Not a huge fan of citrus but surprisingly I found this scent really enjoyable :)

American cream and Vanilliary are my favourite ones. Nice video!
Haven't tried any of the newer Lush scents, but whenever I feel like visiting a 70's head shop I spray Karma!
LOL, that is very true! Karma is a classic. Thanks!
That would be me ... KARMA is around here somewhere... Love it! 💞
Thank you for reviewing so many in one video! Many lush reviews discuss only a handful of their perfumes 💗💯😌🤍
Thanks for watching! Yes, I find videos with many reviews together really helpful so I try to do that when I can. :)
1000 Kisses Deep smells just like the university library I used to frequent. Smelling it always takes me back to my nerdy uni days ♡
That's so fun! Love having scent memories like that!
Plus such a beautiful name. Right? Need to get samples!
This was SOOOOOOO helpful, I have always been so curious about their perfume line but I’ve never come across a youtuber reviewing them, so thank you! 💙
Thanks so much! I'm glad it was helpful!!!
I have not tried any Lush fragrances, somehow I never took them seriously. You got me curious now ❤️
Yeah, I think they get overlooked. I think their perfume game was really upped when they started the Gorilla line. I'm hoping they continue to produce unique fragrances, but Simon Constantine is no longer making their fragrances as he started his own house called And Perfumes.
My favorite in Lush perfumes is the Rose Jam. So amazing, love the smell! Very long lasting, projection and sillage performer ❤️
That is a great one! Thanks!
I have American Cream & I bought Vanillary today. I’m looking forward to layering it with American Cream 😊
I have rose jam, junk, pansy, and Lord of Misrule. I just ordered karma and it’s on the way to me now. I own the BIG body spray an I’m obsessed!!!
I have not seen Rentless before or maybe I hadn't noticed. You are so right it is best to give Lush perfumes time to set. I love Yog Nog too I have the body spray and shower gel, love snow fairy very sweet! Thank you for sharing ❤️

I love Lust. I hated it before, but now it is my favorite scent.
Yes 1000 kisses deep. It is now discontinued here in the UK. I treasure mine. It is the one that gets me complements. Myhrr suits my skin well.
Oh no! It's still available here, but I wonder if it will disappear soon.
I used to be a lush junkie! lol! I had Lord of Misrule in a body conditioner and I remember when the American Cream conditioner was popular, I used it...alot! lol! I have 4 Lush fragrances at the moment; Vanillary, Smuggler's Soul, Breath of God and Himalaya. They're all lovely!

I would love to try tank battle but it is hard to find now. I love American Cream as well!
love them all...i think i have to have them all...my favorite is Tank battle...but there are a lot that i love!
I just bought Rentless today! Love it!
Yay! So glad you love it, too!
Highhhhly recommend layering Lord Of Misrule, Rentless, and Grass. Or even just LOM and Rentless. You're welcome.
Thanks! I will have to give that a try! I don't have grass but I'll do the other 2.

Your no.1 also matches my favorite perfume in Lush!
Nice! It's so good!
Omg i love Lust! 🤣 thanks for doing these reviews!
LOL! Yeah, I'm in the minority with that one I think. Thanks, Yve!
Love Lush products and how the lush stores smell is so delicious but sometimes a little overwhelming.
I agree! Most of their products are quite fragrant, so all together it can get overwhelming sometimes.
you described Dirty's notes scarily accurate. You got it all right!!!!!
I love rentless and gets so many compliments; in which, I was so surprise. It's a fragrance that you keep smelling where you sprayed :)
I totally agree! It's so good. Thanks!
I've never tried anything from Lush/Gorilla. I think I've only walked into the store twice in my life. Didn't think they would be anything good. Now I'll have to give them a try. Thanks Tara!
Yeah, I only really started trying them a few years ago and have been surprised by how much I like them. Thanks, D'Angelo!
I love vanilliary, Lord of Misrule, sun, and 29 high street!
Sun is citrus based, absolutely does not last, but it’s just a yoga scent for me lol pop on before a class, isn’t offensive, is bright & uplifting, and I don’t even feel like I’m wasting it when I shower after lol
Hey Tara, great overview, thanks for the shout out. I will send you an email I just received from Lush, really interesting.
Thanks, Barry! Appreciate the info.
Wow! You are INCREDIBLE at guessing notes! The citrus in Rentless is grapefruit and I spray it on myself after a sweaty shift at work and it makes me feel fresh and less anxious! Junk smells gorgeous on my skin but it always gives me a headache which really upsets me as I didn't realise until after I bought it.

*Neroli and mimosa
Thanks for this great video! I've tried Cardamom Coffee the other day and LOVED it! My fav!
I want to try that one again! I remember spraying it in the store a long time ago, but haven't smelled in since. That's definitely a favorite of many people!

Awesome, Lola! Tank Battle sounds so interesting! Definitely want to check that out at some point.
@@Olfactofiles I hope you like it. 💓
Rentless projects 10 feet from me no lie. Lush is easy on the trigger....which is hard for me haha 😄
As usual great video, and its nice to see a lush review on fragrances. 🥰
Thanks, Gabby! Yes! Many of them are super strong including Rentless!
Lust is my favourite perfume and I love it a lot - but Lust has lots of jasmine in it and when I was working at Lush I learnt that jasmine is naturally indolic, so it smells like BO or cat pee to some people 😂
Yeah, Lust is a very love or hate I think because of the indoles. LOL! So cool that you worked there!
I've layered Rose jam with 1000 kisses deep. Boy I was not to be messed with lol 😂
LOL! I might give that a try!
I want rose jam so bad. I have the solid perfume and fell in LOVE
The accidental halitosis 😂 And heck, you can always keep Junk as a car freshener. Tell your friends that you have Junk in the trunk. Or....maybe not. 🚗 Believe it or not, I still haven't tried a single one from the brand! But you can be sure I'll be starting with Rentless!
LOL, Doni! That's a great idea! Ha! Definitely give Rentless a try. It's a unique, cozy scent that is great this time of year!
American cream smells like those plastic baby dolls that are scented like baby powder, so weird but yet so good!😆
I highly recommend the Lush body spray Roller. It is absolutely beautiful!
LOL! Yes, I can totally get what you are saying! I'll have to look for Roller! Thanks!
Grass is for sure my favourite lush fragrance. It knocks them all off the top spot 😍😍😍
I’m going to have to check out dirty and junk I have Lord of Misrule and love it
Nice, Jakki! Definitely check them out! I love the names! LOL
I have always wanted to try some lush fragrances and i always get overwhelmed when i’m in the website... ❤️
Andreas also kinda reminded me about lush fragrances... 😁 a man who decided to live in a tank... yes i thought of a battle tank 😂 anyway, that rentless sounds really good... ❤️
LOL! Thanks, Paola! Rentless is really nice. I also love I'm Home (which I didn't include as it's discontinued). I think if you were going to blind buy one, American Cream might be the safest one.
The only Gorilla Perfume/ Lush fragrance I own is Sikkim Girls - Tuberose and Frangipani with just a hint of that dirty/indolic Jasmine. The frangipani does a good job I think of not letting it get too dirty. Thanks for this I actually keep forgetting that I have this fragrance and I really love wearing it on summer evenings! I only have one because I just don’t get in the city to try them that often but I should make more effort to go smell them.
Thanks, Cherie! I've heard a lot of good things about Sikkim Girls and am going to try to sample it next time I get into the store (who knows when that will be, though).
This is a great list, Tara. 😊 Yep, Vanillary is my favorite from Lush but I very much agree that these fragrances (typically) turn into something appealing once they have been given time to dry down and develop. I’m with you on Lust though; I tried really hard to love it. I don’t get a bad breath vibe from it 😄 but it is just SO strong to me. Never wanna wear that one in a closed space. Thank you so much for the shoutout; much appreciated. 😊💕
Thanks, Deb! Yeah, Lust is just a no for me, but I really enjoy many others. Vanillary is a really nice one.
I have lust from a while back & Sikkim girls solid ! 😌🌌
Hi, i just joined your channel and i’m so excited the first video i see is on Lush fragrances, i am like a broken record letting people know how lovely their fragrances are. I’m a Lust girl, i agree with you, when i first smelled it, i was a lil overwhelmed, i did not know what to think of it, but when you spray it on skin, the scent bubble is just intoxicating. When i say i get compliments, i literally have ppl follow me just to ask me what i’m wearing. It’s a sexy scent. Thank you and enjoying your channel. ❤️✨
Thank you so much! Yes, that one is a very strong scent! Lush has some amazing fragrances and I wish they were talked about more often in fragcomm!
@@Olfactofiles I’m going to purchase Rentless 😘
@@Olfactofiles I’m going to purchase Rentless 😘
I’ve never tried any Lush fragrances, if fact I didn’t know they made them until I joined the fragrance community! I’ve only been in Lush stores a couple of times.
Great reviews!
I didn't know about their fragrances until a few years ago, either! So glad I found them! Thank you!
We had a fragrance meet up in my area and we went to Lush. I'm interested in having a lush fragrance in my collection, but this was a decent look into them which is helpful. I was lost with the social distancing and all that I saw LOL. Great vid!!
Thanks, Kia! Yeah, I think it would be especially hard right now without testers and everything. Glad this was helpful!
@@Olfactofiles we had testers, but it was still a lot to digest lol
Fabulous video mate 🙂 I've only tried 3, non have got me hooked yet. But there is so much crazy love for these. Our good friend Andreas certainly does love them. I think of what I've tried maybe Sapho is my favourite but not enough to probably want to own it. I must say tho it's a shop I've bought a lot of their other products from over the years. Anyways I do waffle on. Have a fab thanksgiving mate 🙂
Thanks, Jon! Yeah, it took me a while to find some I loved, but now there are several! Andreas definitely loves these as well!
Oh Tara, what a lovely video. I actually also don’t really like Lust (I tried it once and don’t even remember what it smells like; it was an instant no).
The thing with Lush is their chunkiness that makes them, as you pointed out, rough around the edges. But that’s also why I enjoy them so much. They really feel different every time I wear them.
I have to admit that Rentless is not my favourite fragrance ever 😊, but after your video I actually want to experience it again. Hmmm, I guess I’m just the Dirty kind of guy! I also love Dear John and some of their weird ones like Breath of God, The President’s Hat or The Devil’s Nightcap. These three were definitely not love at first sniff, but rather fragrances that slowly find their way into your heart. But in fact these are the ones that stay with you (if they aren’t discontinued 😂).
Thanks so much for your wonderful house review! I really enjoyed it!
Thank you so much, Andreas! I really want to try Dear John and The Devi's Nightcap sometime. I've never even heard of the President's Hat, so if it ever was sold in the U.S. it isn't now, sadly. I think Amina like Breath of God as well, but I might be mistaken. I appreciate you inspiring me to revisit these fragrances!
Thank you for your video, very informative. I’m cruelty free since 2017 and I decided to buy cruelty free fragrance this years. I had so many none cruelty free perfume to use up before buying more. Unfortunately they just stayed in my collection because I didn’t want to wear them and having people asking me which perfume I’m wearing.
Thanks for sharing I need to try these out
Thank you for watching!
I’m still looking for the lush fragrance that I like enough to buy, I almost bought Lust but then I tried it again and didn’t enjoy it as much, vallinary is nice, think my fave is Tank Battle which only comes in the larger size I believe, may even be discontinued now. This was helpful I’ll have another go when we come out of lockdown 😁 Thanks Tara
I would really like to try Tank Battle. It sounds interesting. Have you ever tried I'm Home? I didn't include it in this video, but it's another top rated one for me.
I love Lush Tara great video! I must say I dislike Lush Lust it is awful and i am not sorry to say that lol! I bought it years ago and had to throw it away! Vanillary is my favourite out of all the ones I have tried but I disliked it at first until it dried down and I was pleasantly surprised. I absolutely love their body sprays, they smell much better than a lot of their perfumes - Let me continue watching
Thanks, Abi! I'll have to try more of their body sprays. I've only tried the one I have so far.
This helped me so much. I wish there was one closer to me. Thanks for sharing
Thanks, Dawn! Hopefully you'll get to try them sometime!
Awesome video, Tara!!!♥️♥️♥️
Thanks, Joss!
Yog Nog perfume is my son's absolute favorite ever. We've gotten LoM, Yog Nog and Sultana of Soap as Limited edition releases via LUSH Kitchen UK. ❤
Nice! Hopefully I'll get the Yog Nog one someday! Thanks, Heather!
Enjoyed the presentation. Thank you. I have Rose Jam and I am liking it quite a bit. I barely received yesterday. I also have a sample of marshmallow fluff which came with purchase (Mercari Seller) and yes very jammy and syrupy but I love!!! Curious about Rentless
I never tried this house before. Delicious delights always have great reviews on this house. I think you said smuggler soul, the one with lemon grass and sandalwood. This one sounds amazing . Rose jam also sounds interesting since I’m starting to appreciate rose. Dirty also sounds good, I enjoy green leafy scents and it has mint, sounds good. Great review. I agree that on skin fragrances smell way different and you can really tell if you like or not more on skin. Thanks for sharing. Great review. I think the I’m gonna get rose jam, and smuggler soul( I hope this is the name).
Hey Pat! Thanks so much! Yes, they have some really unique fragrances! I like that they have most of time in 30ml as well as I'd rather have more variety so I don't need 100ml of everything. Yeah, Delicious Delights/Eau de Cupcakes has been doing great reviews on these!
Great video Tara im just a little bit addicted to the soaps especially how we're having to wash our hands every 5 minutes 🙏😻🙏
They are so nice, aren't they Scott?! Thank you!
All good things, sikkim girls, rentless, LOM. I also love yoga bomb body spray and Golden Pear.
Thanks, Katie! I really want to try All Good Things. I had the Golden Pear soap last year and loved the way that smelled but haven't tried the body spray.
My favorite thus far is what would love do. But I also enjoy cardamom coffee. I need to look into this house some more
Cardamom coffee is another good one! I haven't smelled it in a long time but I remember liking it. Thanks!
@@Olfactofiles I own it!!! I enjoy it as well but I only can wear it in cold months . It’s beautiful though
Hi Tara !! What a great review ! I have Rose Jam body spray and that stuff is nuclear if I spray it upstairs in my closet my kids can smell it all the way downstairs 😳 and that’s only one spray ! I also have Rentless - when I first bought it I don’t think I was ready for it nor did I appreciate it - I had tried it a couple months ago and Wowsa was it fantastic ! It feels like the holidays to me - warm, cozy, inviting maybe not for others but definitely to myself ☺️ great reviews :) I also can’t get into Lust I totally get that stinky breath from it too haha !! Happy Thanksgiving 🦃
LOL, so glad I"m not the only one who smells that, Melissa! I had the same experience with Rentless. I tested in the store once and didn't care for it, but then I came back to it later and fell in love. Have a great Thanksgiving!
Hi Tara, So happy you have Lush fragrances on your channel 😊 my favs are 1000 kisses deep, American Cream, Rose jam and Vanillary...your comment on the Lust scent is too funny, I’m not gonna lie, I’m not a fan either!!! 😅great vid!!
LOL! Thanks, Jen! Yeah, Lust is a love it or hate it scent it seems. I'm glad I'm not the only one on the hate it side, though. Ha!
Lust is pure masterpiece
Dirty was such a first love of fragrance to me... i never into fragrances but when I study abroad in England, I got a chance to visit Lush every now and then. I find their store is quite unique. so i try Dirty and omg i know it smells like toothpaste but my liking towards mint is out of this world. it really gives me tranquility. I haven't had or bought lush for years after I graduated. we don't have Lush here so it's hard to purchase. but it wasn't a repeat purchase too when I live there lol. today I drop by Lush store (and yes they're available in my country now). as soon as I try this fragrance, it gives me a lot of nostalgia 😭😭 i had to buy bcos of that purpose... I'm quite happy. although not a fave scent. but i buy for the sake of being nostalgic. the only thing I treasure in my life 😢😇 kinda disappointed with their packaging/design cuz I don't remember the name but I vividly remember the blue waves. now it looks cheap & simple
I love your house overviews. The only perfume I bought from them was Cardamom Coffee. It smelled ok in the store on paper but when I brought it home and sprayed it on me it smelled like if someone had spilled day old coffee in an ashtray full of ashes and cigarette butts. 🤢I returned it and got the Big body spray. I also just bought a couple more body sprays...Coco Loco (which they sent by accident so they let me keep it) and Snow Fairy! I was chatting with Barry about that one. He had just bought it and said it smelled like candy floss, which is perfect for Christmas. 😄Can I just also say that I am annoyed with how they have all the bottles of perfume out where anyone can spray them. I saw a lot of people spraying bottles that WERE NOT testers. I prefer buying a bottle that has not been sprayed. Thanks, needed to get that off my chest. LOL
Oh no! My store had the testers pretty obviously displayed, though I suppose people could have sprayed the actual bottles as well. That's so frustrating! I usually order perfumes from their website anyway as my store doesn't usually have the 30ml sizes in stock and I prefer the smaller bottles if I can get them. I should try Snow Fairy. Abi (From Abi With Love) said she likes that one as well. Thanks, Jim!
I love Twilight body spray, Lord of Misrule perfume, Rose Jam and Vanillary but I have to be careful cause its suffocating lol
For sure! LOL! I love the Twilight body spray as well! I use it on my linens at night time.
I've been trying lots of Lush scents in the shop (here in New Zealand we are lucky not to have had major lockdowns). My favourites (that I bought) are Sikkim Girls, Rose Jam, Pansy, Goddess, Karma and What would Love Do.
I sprayed Lust on myself in the shop and almost died. I tried it a couple of times to torture myself: I agree: major halitosis. I usually love Jasmine . I tried the solid version of it: that is MUCH easier to wear. I own that now and wear it quite often. The solid scents are a good way to try Lush scents.
Thanks for the great video!
LOL! I laughed so hard when I read this because the exact same thing happened to me. Sprayed it on in store and almost had an immediate gag reflex! Ha! I'll look into the solid version whenever I am able to get back into the store. Thanks!
@@Olfactofiles Lush wash cards are also another way to try the scents. They are spot on with the fragrance.
Thanks, I have been interested in Rentless in particular. I loved Lord of Misrule shower gel and I wondered if I should get the perfume. I like Rose Jam but there are jammy rose perfumes (by Montale and Mancera, etc.) that I have now that I like better. I also do not like Lust. I like Kerbside Violet, which you didn't review. A few years ago I went through a whole bottle of Kerbside Violet (for me to finish a bottle is unusual) and I haven't replaced the bottle but I have some in a solid perfume form but I don't use it because I think the solid perfume doesn't really do much but leave some grease on your skin.
Thanks, Christine! I've never smelled Kerbside Violet! I will have to be on the lookout for that one! I agree about the solid perfumes (not just Lush's, but in general). I also don't care for perfume oils for the same reason. I don't like anything greasy on my skin, probably because I'm super oily all on my own. Ha!
I used love and the smell is really relaxing.. ❤️😊
Thanks for this review
Thank you!
I still have a small tin of their solid perfume Death and Decay. Love this intense lily scent. I hardly ever apply it on my skin but it's do great to inhale 💜
I was really interested to hear what you thought about lust, I'm really torn about this fragrance, can't decide whether I like it or not! Its kind of intriguing to me and I keep wanting to go back to it... but it is very strong and as you say 'rough around the edges'. Great review!
Thanks, Sal! Yeah, I can't do Lust even though I've tried to wear it a few times. I have that unsure feeling about a few of theirs as you mentioned, but I definitely don't like Lust. LOL!
12. LUSH Halitosis..... eeewww
Do they still make KARMA? I’ve got it somewhere...💞
Ahaha! Yes, I can't deal with that one. I do think they still make karma.
I have Sandalwood trail, home ,what would love do. waiting to try American cream 💖
Nice! I haven't tried that Sandalwood one, but I'd probably like it. Thanks!
l use least favorite perfumes when taking a hot bath, just an idea for you, simply spray it in the water and you will get steamed aroma of Junk : )
I never thought of that! What a great idea! Thank you!!!
This is an intriguing House that is unknown to me. I don't think I would be able to wear a perfume called Junk :)))) I was wondering if you could do a video about the other perfume lovers' channels that you follow and like. I enjoy your videos every day...I go back to the old ones that I did not see because I am kind of new to your channel. Big hug from Transilvania!
Thanks, Cristina! I did a video like that which was a tag created by Emy's World of Fragrance. If you look back at my videos I think it's called My Fragrance Community Tag. Although there are probably a few more channels to add now, most of the ones I enjoy are in there.
@@Olfactofiles Thank you!!!
Love the review! I’m obsessed with Rentless but it was discontinued now :(
Which Lush perfume is the closet dupes for Rentless?
I'm not too studied in lushs offerings so I'm really curious about these 😍
I do adore lust by them though 🤣 and road from Damascus is a gorgeous scent from them too.
LOL! Lust seems to be very love it or hate it. I haven't tried Road from Damascus. I'll have to keep an eye out for it. Thanks, Robert!
I can only tolerate goddess and rose jam
Never smelt the vanilla
Is cardamom coffee a good blind buy cuz we don't have that here
I didn't love cardamom coffee but a lot of people do. I didn't find it offensive, though. I just wouldn't spend the money on a full bottle. Thanks for watching!
@@Olfactofiles Turmeric latte is a gorgeous cozy scent from Lush. Highly recommend.❤
I've got rentless and breath of god, they're very hit and miss for me. I wanted devils night cap but they get discontinued at a rate of knots
Hey Rich! I SAW you on Eugen's channel!!! I haven't tried Devil's Night Cap. I wish they didn't discontinue things so frequently.
@@Olfactofiles hey y'all.
I know! They always take the best ones, apparently cardamom coffee is gone too.
Fame at last, man! (I'm not doing it on painkillers again 🤩😂😂)
I just bought Lord of Misrule and I’m so excited. I have the rose jam solid perfume and I’m obsessed!
Awesome! Thanks for watching!
I should probably get Junk, just so I can spray Junk on my junk.....😆😆
LOL! Please do, Brandon! Ha!
Nice look mam
I was just looking at the Lush site yesterday because I’ve been on a hunt for a good vanilla that doesn’t go powdery or dessert-like. I didn’t end up buying the vanilla fragrance because I wasn’t convinced it was what I was looking for. I’ve been hunting for a deep boozy vanilla that I can layer with other fragrances. Lemme know if you have any suggestions. 😊
I really like M. Micallef Note Vanillee. Another one you might want to try is Vanille by Mona di Orio, but I don't have a lot of experience with that one yet to have a complete opinion (just got a small sample recently). I love Guerlain Spiritueuse Double Vanille, though it's maybe only a tiny touch boozy. Hope you find something!
Huda beauty vanilla 28!
Dior addict is a sexy vanilla
My boyfriend hates the Lust perfume.. I like it but it’s very strong. A little bit goes a long way.
I love your nailcolor❤️what brand and color is it?
Have you smelled B Scent? Why was that not on the list?
I love Cardamom Coffee!
That's a good one!
sikkim girls is my fav LUSH frag
Never tried lush 💞💞
You'll have to check it out, Neesha!
I blind brought frangipani. I was expecting the perfect cosy jumper fragrance. What I got instead was ill 🤮 the first perfume that has made me want to actually vomit. They dry down is quite nice but it takes about an hour to get to that dry down and I can't cope with it that long 🤮
LOL! That is awful! I just blind bought it as well. I need to test it on skin, but it's not a love. I also got Fresh As and am NOT a fan. Yeah, if it's that bad in the opening probably not worth it.
@@Olfactofiles I got fresh as aswel 🙈 smells like conifer trees and I'm a gardener so not what I really want to smell of. The frangipani smells better on the skin an hour after spraying 😅
I wanna wear junk too!!! 😜
LOL, right?! Great name!
Anyone who loves the junk fragrance?
Sikkim girls my favourite
LUSH has gone in a bad direction (in the UK at least) when they increased the prices, made their product towards children and stoped doing socail media.
That's such a bummer! They haven't done that here at all. I hope they don't start!
This perfumes also made me laugh because of how astonishingly terrible they are. Me and my friends had a great laugh trying them.
LOL! Some of them are quite interesting.
Lust.....it is indeed indolic. Ill forgive you just because you're you 😘
Ha! Thanks! I think I'm in the minority is my dislike of Lust.
