3 1/2 out of 5 rating. See my review video of this perfume below.
This smells like a tart, green apple. It’s actually made with rose and orange flower surprisingly.
I like the scent more in the bath bomb. The perfume isnt bad its just nit my favorite way of enjoying this scent.
Here’s a review and demo video I recorded of Lush Uk exclusive so White perfume.
I have here each week and each month from the current March 2025 sub box going back to 2016 at the very bottom of the page.
Kitchen.lush.com
As of Lush 2023, we no longer get to vote for products. Now Lush chooses what to make, and it’s usually a fun theme.
You must be registered for a subscription box either at Lush UK or Lush North America.
The sub box has 4-5 items which would include a couple of retro, discontinued, and exclusive, surprise products.
I make a video each week of the upcoming sub box products BEFORE we get the products, since ive used them all a few times throughout the years. That way people who have never tried these products can have some detailed information and reviews about the products to help them choose a certain box or even when to pause a box that month etc.
Here are links to each months subscription box page which shows the products up for the vote, which ones won, and my photos of that months subscription box and my video unboxing.

Below is the Previous version of the Lush Kitchen, UK only 2015-2018 because there was no such things as a Lush U.S. kitchen sub box at that time. I have been buying them since their very first lush kitchen box, back when we were able to order from the uk even if we lived in the United States.
So ifinally started adding all the monthly boxes with their products that i have reviewed, demo vids and photos onto this lush blog page.
The idea is to have a place to make small batches of exclusive products available fresh.
I actually had the immense pleasure of meeting the lovely folks in this photo, when i was there a month before the Lush Kitchen opened for business.
Our compounders are cooking up a storm, experimenting with giant bath bombs and mixing up creative visions. Get a glimpse of limited edition recipes, and freshly dreamt up innovations.
If you click on the date/links you will be taken to that weeks’ products with my demo and reviews video of each one.

See my bath oil video demo list of 20 new Lush bath oils. I’ve done video demos of all 19. The links to each of those tub demo videos are in the below list.
A fabulous way to get a good amount of our favorite fragrances in a small package. It’s small but it makes a gorgeous show in the tub. Adding color and in some cases shimmer. The fragrances are stronger and last longer on the skin than in other things like bath bombs and bubble baths.
I have all of them, so as i use each one i’ll make videos and take photos that you can watch via the links below.

(Sex Bomb scented Valentine’s 2008 massage bar)
Review: This is absolutely wonderful smelling. I smells a nice medium strong jasmine and rose “Sex Bomb” scent. Lush made this with the same sage, rose and jasmine that their popular bath bomb is made with.
This is the first Lush massage bar in the awhile that I’ve made a habit of swiping on my arms as i’m going out the door, because it’s strong enough to wear as a perfume. And the bar is the cutest looking thing ever! I give this 5 stars, for looks, and scent.
If you like florals youll like the scent of Play Your Cards Right.

This is my picture of my first bottle of Sonic Death Monkey that i took in 2006. Blurry, lol.
The name comes from a record store owner’s band name in the movie called ‘Hi Fidelity’ made in 2000.
The reason i rated this a 3 is because its too thin of a consistency for me. Anytime Lush has remade this in the Lush Kitchen, Retro, etc. Lushies, including myself, complain how thin it is. Its always been watery.
Also, i dont think it smells quite like chocolate. Its very sweet, and sweet with orange, lime, and tangerine.
It doesnt suck, but its not something i would buy if they started selling it in stores again. And im typically an orange freak, i love it so much, but not the case with sonic death monkey.
Here’s a demo and review i made on my youtube channel showing Sonic Death Monkey shower gel.
Ingredients: Coffee, Cocoa, Cerassie Infusion, Fresh Lime Juice, Perfume, Hemp Oil, Tangerine Oil, Orange Oil, Vanilla.
Sodium Laureth Sulfate, Sodium Cocoamphoacetate, Lauryl Betaine,
These three Lush products in my photo below were made with the same scent.
It smells like Lush’ “Whipstick” lip scrub.
Its different than the discontinued chocolate and ginger shower gel “13 Rabbits“. I like 13 rabbits more, its more like real chocolate in scent and consistency than Sonic Death Monkey.
Lush Chocolates 🍫🍩🍪
Lush “Heavenly Bodies” buttercream
Lush 2006 Description: There are many chocolate shower gels in the world and most of them, frankly, are horrid. They are nasty, gimmicky, cheap, synthetic things which smell like market stall chocolate Christmas decorations – horrid, as we were saying. For a while we resisted, not wanting to be tarnished by such a tawdry image, then we thought to ourselves, “We can do better than that, much better!” so we did. (Actually Noriko did it.) Oh what gloriously gloopy, sensual stuff Sonic Death Monkey turned out to be. It has seaweed gel make your hair and body feel soft; it’s scented with chocolate orange and tones you up with fresh lime, Caribbean coffee and herbal tea. (It’s named after Barry’s band in High Fidelity.) Cover yourself in chocolate orange and dig that crazy gravy.

My Fever spray perfume, massage bar and Date night bar
All of the different Lush products on this page are made with the Fever scent.
Mirror Mirror neck cream is anothet prpduct but i dont have the picture.
Ingredients: Cocoa Butter, Shea Butter, Perfume, Rose Absolute, Jasmine Absolute, Sandalwood Oil, Gardenia Extract.
Fever massage bar
Fever bubble bar
Holoywood bubble bar
Mirror Mirror neck cream
Fever perfume
Fever soap (i won a contest so they created this and gave it to me)
Review:The original bar was two toned. Later lush changed it’s appearance to be round and having red lips on top of the bar. Fever smells strongly of rose absolute, but it smells like real roses, as if from a rose bush, or the rose smell of a florist shop. It also has beautiful Jasmine and calming sandalwood. I think it smells like 1950’s lipstick in a good way. In a wonderfulyl heady but addictive way. When I first sniffed this, I didn’t like it. It was waaay too strong for me. I think it was in the 2nd order I made with Lush and I was not used to Lush’s real, non-synthetic fragrances. Now it is one of my favorite bars ever. Later on, Lush made “Hollywood” Christmas bubble bar in the Fever scent by the way and Lush’s “Mirror Mirror” neck cream has the Fever scent also. Fever is absolutely intoxicating. And for you BPAL lovers, Beth’s Tarot: “The Empress” is a dead on ringer for Fever. Both have jasmine, rose and sandalwood.
Fever Bubble bar
Lush Times 2005 description: In the 1950s some new aromas were invented which changed the olfactory shape of perfume for ever. In Fever we’ve used one of them, with some of our favourite floras to produce a fragrance that epitomizes the scent for the 1950s independent women, shaking off traditions and exploring the brave new world. Picture yourself in dark sunglasses, pink lipstick and fitted sweater, scented with rose, warming sandalwood and sensual jasmine, ready to defy convention and enjoy life to the full. Fever is the massage bar to use on the sweet new guy in town to help him to cut loose and get hip.
Hollywood bubble bar
Here’s a video review of my piece of my Fever.

I laid one of my something wicked on top if a squeeze of Ectoplasm shower gel. I love green and purple.
Below are two pics ive taken showing how the purple something wicked melt looks in a green sparkly water made from a green lush bath bomb.

The latest addition to this scent family is an exclusive shower bomb (there two in the picture) made in the Lush Labs 2018.
Something Wicked bath melt
From the title of a Ray Bradbury novel/screenplay/movie.
Review: Having a real ginger root scent, and not that of Gingerbread. The ginger is softened by lovely Jasmine and almond oil. This is a good blend of ginger and jasmine. The oakmoss lending that “spooky’ quality from the story of the same name. If it’s a fresh Something Wicked bathmelt you can smell the layers of scent, pretty floral, earthy oakmoss, spicy ginger. That said, i wish there were more scent. I’ve had a few that were stronger and the scent was very nice. But the weaker scented melts have to be brought up to the nose in order to smell them.
Lush UK also made a Something Wicked Lotion and perfume for forum members only in 2009 or 2010. It was SO good.
Ingredients: Cocoa Butter, Almond Oil, Perfume, Ginger Oil, Jasmine Absolute, Oakmoss Absolute.
Lush Times 2006 description: Possibly the Queen of our new bath melt selection. Ginger and jasmine envelope you in a sensual haze of soft, warm, welcoming swirls of glittery, moisturising foam. Wicked in every sense of the word.
It makes a GORGEOUS color pattern in the water if it’s a fresh one, as you can see in my photo below.
This is what the Something wicked melt looked like one year only during halloween 2006, with a dark pink red glitter.
Here’s an 8 second video showing my something wicked perfume.

See video i did of pouring this below.
‘Beautiful’ is one of the new lush shower gels which have come here to Lush North America. These 3 shower gels including Lord of Misrule, Don’t Rain on my Parade, and Beautiful, debuted at lush new “Superstore” on Oxford Street in London.
For those of you who remember lush B boutique in London in 2006, this has the scent of their 1000 Kisses Deep fragrance
peach, gardenia, carrageenan, labdamun, apricot, osmanthus and myrrh.
Lush Kitchen online Description: ‘If you feel anything less than a vision of loveliness in the morning, this peachy keen shower gel is the one for you. A blend of warming and exotic myrrh resinoid brings a sensual musk to the sunny perfume of fresh peach juice and dried apricots, and feels sensationally soft on the skin. Adorn yourself in the rich, creamy lather of this warm, floral tonic to feel gorgeous, inside and out. 1000 Kisses from us to you..’
.Heres a video i made of this
There is also a ‘Frozen’ bubble bar, but they smell nothing alike and they look different.
OMG this Frozen bath bomb what a gorgeous bath bomb! See my short video clip of it below. This shares its beautiful scent with Lush “Happy Happy Joy Joy” and a couple of other lush products.The scent is grapefruit, neroli, and rose.
The scent is so beautiful that many Lushies asked Lush to make this into perfume, which Lush did available for one day only.
I had a lush solid bath oil called ‘Shark Infested Custard’ which is yellow, after the Frozen bath bomb dissolved in the water. And the look of the yellow amidst all the blue looked so pretty.
When the yellow Lush bath oil began to melt it looked like a painting of yellow and blue in the water. 😍
Here’s Frozen fizzing in my tub.
The blue water that this bomb makes is like NO other blue lush item. I don’t think Lush has made any other product in this particular shade of blue.
Some more pics i took of another frozen bomb i bought that i used on another day.
Review: The fragrance of this bath bomb surprised me. I thought because it was called “Frozen” it might be minty. Instead this is a Gorgeous floral with citrus notes. Rose, Neroli, Grapefruit.
It has the lscent as Lush “Happy Happy Joy Joy” shampoo and the Lush ‘shine so bright” hair styling balm. Frozen bath bomb has silver shimmer in the water which does leave an ever so light sheen on the skin after the bath. The water is an incredible bright sky blue color.
I tried to show the silver sparkle in the sky blue water.
Lush description: Let it go – This magical blend of uplifting grapefruit, tunisian neroli, rose oil.
Heres a scent family photo i took of lush things in the same scent that i had purchased throughout the years.
Lush also made a bubble bar a couple of years later for Mother’s Day called ‘Your Mother Should Know’ which has the same scent.
Happy Happy Joy Joy was a Lush hair conditioner.
Lush made a spray perfume of frozen and a sid perfume.
Many years later Lush made another product in this same scent family which is a body lotion made for their January 2025 monthly subscription box.

See my tub demo of crackersnap below.
Ingredients: Sodium Bicarbonate, Citric Acid, Sodium Carbonate, Popping Candy, Cream of Tartar, Sodium Laureth Sulfate, Lemongrass Oil, Bergamot Oil, Rosewood Oil, Lauryl Betaine, *Citral, *Geraniol, *Limonene, *Linalool, Perfume, Colour 42090, Colour 45350, Colour 19140, Frosty Holley Lustre.
Lush Times magazine: Every Christmas needs a cracker! Crackersnap is a new, cheery, lemongrass Bath Bomb that ‘cracks’ wide open in your tub, turning the water bright green and revealing a few extra treats – just like a real Christmas cracker! Pop on your party hat, tell yourself a joke and round up that crocodile for future bathing fun times.
Review: This has the wonderful “Avobath” scent, with lotsof lemongrass and bergamot. It makes popping sounds as it dissolves. They were fragile via mail order but then Lush started putting them in little plastic cases and that’s why mine was not broken when it arrived all the way from England.
Here’s a demo i recorded of the Crackersnap bath bomb in the tub.

Lush Uk made these perfumes for forum members only in 2010, give or take a year. It came before ‘Calacas’. This Day of the Dead perfume was one of the first lush products with this lime and neroli scent, and the name changed to ‘Calacas’.
Its citrussy, i smell lime and the Frankincense the most. I love it!

See my video of this below
Review: A Christmas bath bomb that I’ve been hooked on since I first tried it in late 2001. A slight Licorice scent to me, because of the fennel I guess, and that’s what makes it a different scent. It has a lovely fruity note to it as well (the tangerine). It smells enchanting to me. It turns the water purple and has silver and black foil stars inside for added effect. Lush claims that the herbs and plants in Jingle Spells helps when you over imbibe with drink during the holidays. TJingle Spells was a favorite of Lushies back in the day.
It smells magical yet feminine because of the ylang ylang. I think I’ve had about 25-50 in total throughout the years.
Ingredients: sodium bicarbonate, citric acid, perfume, juniperberry oil, tangerine oil, fennel oil, ylang ylang oil, twinkling stars
Lush products that share this scent are;
Magic of Christmas Fun bar
Wizard bubble bar
Red Rice soap
Jingle Jelly
Jingle Spells bath bomb water is a lovely purple with a bit of silver shimmer.
Lush Times 2002 Yuletide description: Jingle Spells was last year’s Christmas ballistic bestseller, so we decided to leave it just exactly the way it was; why mess with success? It still has little stars in it and it still smells of juniperberry (the ones they make gin from) and revitalising tangerine with fennel, which smells a bit like aniseed, but not too strongly, plus beautiful floral ylang ylang blossom. Jingle Spells is a magically refreshing, detoxing bath; we recommend it as a Christmas hangover cure (but with out po-faced caps on we’d also like to recommend that you don’t drink too much as it’s very bad for your skin).
Notes: See Jingle Spells (star-shaped)
S:SIngredients: sodium bicarbonate, citric acid, perfume, juniperberry oil, tangerine oil, fennel oil, ylang ylang oil, colours 61585 & 18050, twinkling stars
Description: This is the Star-Shaped Jingle Spells that was in the Lush Christmas 2006 gift called “Wishing on a Star”. Same great fruity, fennel Jingle Spells scent.
