Which Should You Buy?
Lush Lust is unapologetically bold and notoriously divisive. It's a powerhouse jasmine that some find intoxicatingly carnal, while others recoil from its indolic intensity. You’ll either adore it or actively despise it; there’s no middle ground here.
A budget interpretation of Lush's cult Lust, built around the same huge, heady jasmine over ylang-ylang, rose and creamy sandalwood-vanilla. It captures the intensely floral, dirty-jasmine signature but renders the indolic depth a little flatter than the polarising original.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.
Occasions
Lush Lust's beast-mode projection and longevity make it entirely unsuitable for office wear, where it would overwhelm everyone. It's perfect for a bold date night or a special evening out where you want to make a statement, but too heavy for casual daytime use.
Seasons
The heady jasmine-and-ylang white floral wears best in spring and summer, though the creamy base extends it into autumn.
Occasions
Its bold, sensual floral character suits dates and evenings more than the office or sport.
