Which Should You Buy?
A budget take on Lush's The Comforter. Consolation captures the snuggly blackcurrant-cassis heart lifted by bergamot and grounded with cypress that defines the cult Lush original, and wearers who own both report it lands very close at first spray, with the budget version holding up surprisingly well in longevity.
This one's a proper sweet shop punch, but it's wildly divisive. Some adore the photorealistic blackcurrant jam; others recoil from 'cat pee' or 'cough syrup'. Definitely not a blind buy - you'll either love it or want to scrub it off.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
The snuggly blackcurrant lifted by green cypress feels cosy yet fresh, best across spring and autumn with enough lift for milder summer.
Occasions
Its comforting, fruity-fresh character is an easy casual and daily companion, light enough for the office.
Seasons
Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.
Occasions
Its exceptional longevity and strong projection make it less suitable for office environments, as many reviews highlight its 'suffocatingly strong' presence. However, the sweet, comforting nature makes it perfect for casual wear, with some even enjoying it for 'post-gym top-up' or during 'cosy times'.
