Lush has just released a line of eight solid perfumes with scents borrowed from some of their popular bath and body products. Their “solid” formula is a mixture of wax, cocoa butter, and jojoba oil, fragranced with a combination of synthetic perfume notes and natural essences. These perfumes are packaged in the same aluminum tins as Lush’s lip balms and the now-discontinued aromatherapy “temple balms”; in fact, they were displayed in the same scuffed wood boxes that used to hold the aromatherapy balms, next to the cash registers, in both Lush shops that I visited. I hope they’ll be shown to better advantage sometime in the near future, because they’re worth trying.
The two fragrances that I have sampled are Silky Underwear and Potion, and both are very true to the original Lush products that inspired them…
