Mom knows best
No one, but really no one is better suited to write a review for this fragrance than me. After all, I've had to smell it almost every day since 2010. Anyone looking for a detailed and well-founded fragrance description here, please read no further, I'm getting a little nostalgic.

The year is 2010 and my mother and I visit a Lush store. My mother, bright red hair, bright red lipstick, bright red beret, green velvet, lots of jewelry, lots of patterns and high heels. Me, 9 years old and overjoyed, because shopping with mom was always my favorite time. My mother was totally ecstatic because the natural cosmetics smelled great. We rummaged through bath bombs and soaps until we were stopped by a black-haired saleswoman who I felt at the time was very heavily pierced. She offered my mom a tester and my world would never be the same again.

LUST - bright jasmine of the most penetrating kind. Mom and LUST - a match made in heaven. Since that day, a small bottle has always accompanied us in her bright red rucksack, between plant stalks, crochet hooks, notebooks full of notes and lipsticks. The scent was just like her - herself, unapologetic, self-confident, warm, crazy, assertive, creative. When I snuggled up to my mother, this breeze of jasmine always came to me. Some write about sexy associations and animalistic urges, but to me it smells like security. The hug after my first heartbreak smells like this and the borrowed clothes I took from her wardrobe as a teenager.

LUST is definitely a polarizing fragrance. The fragrance is a woman who doesn't apologize to powder her nose, she gets up to "go to the bathroom". One who swears, laughs loudly and clearly puts men in their place. The reactions among her friends and family were correspondingly positive. Some could hardly get enough of it, others got headaches. My grandfather once even said that the perfume smelled like (I'll use a cautious phrase) "lady of the night". Not only once did we receive indignant looks, old ladies turned around in the café and grumbled about what smelled so offensive. The fragrance is a commitment, because once it's on, you can smell it for days. It's a statement, because it announces you before you enter a room.

Just like my mom, who always laughs loudly, always says what she doesn't like, is always colorful and always 100% her, this fragrance is not for everyone. But it is for me, and it's the most beautiful fragrance in the whole world *sniff*
Thanks mom, because you've always shown good taste.

I'm so pissed!!!
Lush Lust actually wore one of my ex-boyfriends and I liked it very much on him and him I find myself also still quite okay. So the fragrance was never burned for me, and that's good, because I had letztens the need to get me yet again a 30ml bottle.

Lust is the quintessential indolic jasmine. One of my best friends - one of the few perfume enthusiasts in my bubble - says to dier kind of jasmine always: I love this note, which always smells so horny pissy!!!
Since I - unlike him - am not a particularly big fan of strong animalics, and am not the biggest fan of scents that make you smell like you've been fucking for three days without showering (his words!), I always have a residual fear of smelling a bit pissy when I wear jasmine scents.

On my skin, that fear is unfounded here, it's just a killer wummy jasmine with everlasting longevity and pretty heavy sillage...and just pretty raunchy!
Everything else at notes hides behind the jasmine and is at most to be guessed. I also think TF's Jasmin Rouge smells a little different again. Because I've already talked so much about dudes of my circle in this post: Yes, if you don't mind floral Lust is also something for the non-hypermasculine type.Not a fragrance for all days, but maybe at least if you're looking to spend three days unshowered in bed. Zwinkyzwonky.

WOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOO!!!!
Woohoo ... yes indeed! I am fortunate enough to own a bottle of Lust by Lush due to the generosity of a fellow fragrance fanatic here at Parfumo. I have been incredibly spoiled (thanks L!!) and in the process have come across the ripest, richest Jasmine fume to end all of them!!

Heed the warnings below ... if you don't like Jasmine then steer well clear of Lust. This white floral powerhouse takes absolutely no prisoners and will bellow her presence from the rooftops, even when treated with respect. Now, I LOVE loud, obnoxious white florals. The bigger the better as far as I am concerned and I shall without doubt "wear the hell out of" this fragrance.
A quick perusal of the little label attached to the bottle confirms the usual aroma chemical suspects like Citral, Geraniol, Benzyl Benzoate and Citronellol ... with a little * next to them indicating that they occur naturally in essential oils. Notable, however, is the inclusion in this fragrance of listed ingredients like Jasminium Grandiflorum extract, Cananga Odorata flower oil (Ylang) and Vanilla Planifolia fruit extract ... and by the way Lust smells, I would place my head on a block that these are real, honest to goodness absolutes.
I don't think they worry too much about pyramids and progressions at Lush. Rather, it feels as if everything is joyously tossed into a beaker until it smells fabulous ... then diluted, bottled and sold. Lust is everything a Jasmine fan could want, indoles and all! Curiously, I get a hefty caramelized Vanilla effect too ... reminiscent of Madonna's Truth or Dare, just a whole lot stronger. Once the indoles have worn off, Lust is a beautifully smooth wear for the 6 odd hours it lives on my skin. This is Jasmine flavored caramel with a vague buttery woodiness from start to finish ... it doesn't develop ... rather, it just gradually and gracefully fades away.
One must remember that this fragrance is from a hippie-like house known for their wacky and wonderful bath bombs and the like, so yes, there is a bath product quality to it. IMHO this is what makes it such a fun wear. Lust is definitely one that will get you noticed ... I'd love to wear it in a roomful of fragrance-o-phobes!!

Of the Lush offerings I have tried, Lust is far and away the best and has skyrocketed to the top of my favorite Jasmine's list. I foresee a long and eventful relationship!!

No Holds Barred Jasmine
I ordered several samples from Lush quite some time ago, but when they arrived I found that one (or more?) of the vials had leaked, leaving dark red stains all over the inside of the cellophane bag in which the vials were wrapped and also all over the inside of the small box in which they were put to prevent damage. Clearly they need to work on their packaging strategy, but I also wonder about the color of a couple of these perfumes. It does not inspire confidence in the claim of all-natural creations that they should be empirically indistinguishable from Red Dye no 5. I am serious: the color of LUST and also of TUCA TUCA is identical to that of a bottle of red food coloring.

Now, having finally mustered up the courage to give these perfumes a good sniff, I am happy to report, first, that they did not degrade over the year when they sat untouched in the box in which they arrived, so that's the first clue that the perfumes are made of decent ingredients. The second and more important clue is that these perfumes really do smell pretty good, against all of my negative expectations instilled not only by the shoddy packaging and the gaudy colors but also my sole visit to a Lush store, which lasted all of two minutes before I ran out in horror.

Let's just say that in-store testing of this brand is likely to be an exercise in futility. Overly perfumed soaps abound, along with God knows what else, and they all come in wild colors and patterns and it's all quite overwhelming in the end. For me it was serious sensory overload. The final deterrent to taking this brand seriously was the ridiculous newspaper catalogue they send out to me periodically, in which all sorts of apparently hippie-era products are being advertised in some pretty over-the-top prose by the Lush zealots, all of whom appear to be "linked in" to drug culture.

Never judge a book by its cover or a perfume by its bottle or a company by its insane concept and marketing. Lush LUST offers a big-time blast of gorgeous and glorious jasmine. This is no joke: you must LOVE jasmine in order to be able to wear LUST. My dab-on sample vial produces a voluminous cloud of jasmine which appears to extend about a meter outward in all directions. A few other flowers have been thrown into the mix, but this is mostly about Jasmine with a capital 'J'. The jasmine is strong but not overly indolic, to my nose. This is nothing like Creed JASMAL, which is more indoles than flowers, and hence unwearable by me.

I would describe the feminine perfumes of this line as gooey. There is something messy and primitive about them but at the same time very appealing because they smell so natural. I believe Lush when they say that they mix these elixirs up in a kitchen-like laboratory. Their perfumes really do have a hand-made quality to them. I'm sure that some people who wear a lot of refined, genteel niche perfumes would be put off by the intensity of these creations, but I think that they might very well appeal to those who like the perfumes of Serge Lutens. Intense is the key word, and if you adore jasmine, this is a must try and probably even a safe blind buy, given the modest price.

Walk, Don't Run
Oh Dear! This label should come with a yield sign. I know I advertise that I love "the hard stuff" but this is ruthless! Whew, the power of this fragrance almost blinded me. I think I will have to re-test with a pin drop amount or add this to my bath water to appreciate it. This is loud, almost sickening sweet over the top jasmine.
The scent itself is very pretty and I would love it toned down a little.

This fragrance requires one to take it slow before rushing into it. I suggest you walk, Don't Run, when applying.

Powerful stuff, use in moderation. Reminds me of Alien (duh, jasmine!) and Madonna Truth of Dare (sweet, daring, indolic white florals).

If you miss the discontinued Nasomatto Nuda and wished its jasmine was less fecal, then Lust is totally for you (and me!).

Jasmine, sweet, dense and with an overlaying sharp-tart (nearly benzoin-like) spiciness. Strange.
