Lush Calacas is an Eau de Parfum. Calacas settles into a heart of Lime, Neroli, and Frankincense. Lush's Calacas carries a Favourite verdict, a fresh-led wear.

A truly divisive scent: some find its zesty, sour tang utterly addictive, like a lime sweetshop in a bottle, while for others, it's a migraine-inducing, flat-out nauseating experience. You'll either love it or hate it, there's no in-between.

Scent Profile

Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

Its bright, energetic citrus profile makes it perfect for casual wear and post-workout refreshment. The strong, sometimes headache-inducing sillage means it's less suited for office or very formal environments.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

Declarable under EU Annex III

  • Bitter orange peel Citrus Aurantium Amara Peel Oil from Neroli
  • Neroli Citrus Aurantium Amara Flower Oil from Neroli

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

Opens with a sharp, mouth-watering blast of zingy lime, bright enough to make your teeth tingle, quickly joined by the sweet, honeyed floral lift of neroli. As it settles, a warm, slightly smoky frankincense emerges, grounding the lively citrus with a touch of resinous depth. The overall impression is a vibrant, almost edible tartness balanced by a subtle, grounding warmth, evoking a fizzy citrus sweet.
