The daily lemming

Posted by Robin on 6 August 2025 6 Comments

Want! But wish they'd left out the glitter. From Lush, Harvest Moon shower gel: "Shower in the light of the full moon, as fragrant osmanthus — harbinger of autumn — greets you with the warm embrace of an old friend. [...] Inspired by elegant osmanthus oolong tea, we’ve squeezed in a generous helping of velvety osmanthus flower infusion for its mouth-watering peach aroma and skin-soothing benefits — it’s the scent of the season." In 120, 290 and 580g. Also new (I think), Pumpkin Spice Latte shower gel ("Swirls of indulgent coffee and vanilla absolute meet aromatic clove and cinnamon in the gourd-damn serve of the season") and Gloop! Shower Slime ("Would a rose by any other name still smell as sweet? How about a rose- and lime-scented shower slime? We’ll let you be the judge, as you indulge in the unexpectedly sophisticated scent of Gloop! A slippery softening slime with bright fresh tangerine and grapefruit juices for luxuriously luminous skin").

    I want my August and end of summer! Already getting Halloween ads. I stubbornly refuse to acknowledge fall until after Labor Day.

      Ditto! Wish they’d not start launching pumpkin spice stuff til late September.

      But I do not think of Osmanthus as a fall fragrance at all, personally.

        I was waylaid by the Harvest Moon title. I agree osmanthus isn’t fall to me either.

    I got a sample of this. It smells like real osmanthus. The scent lingers lightly after shower and the glitter washes away. It does look really pretty in the bottle.

      Very interesting! I do like that peachy osmanthus vibe.

      Oh thank you! I will have to decide if I can put up with the glitter.
