Lush Sex Bomb is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2017. Sex Bomb settles into a heart of Jasmine, Ylang-Ylang, and Clary Sage. Lush's Sex Bomb carries a Favourite verdict, a yellow floral-led wear.

Don't let the name fool you - this isn't the 'Sex Bomb' you might expect. It's a divisive floral, often dubbed a 'grandma' scent, with a significant split between those who find it clean and comforting, and others who detect medicinal or soapy undertones.

Given its clean, soothing profile and often-reported lack of longevity, Sex Bomb is best suited for casual wear, quick errands, or post-shower freshness. Its polarising nature and quiet projection make it less ideal for formal settings or dates, where a more universally appealing and impactful fragrance is usually preferred.

About

A potent blend of yellow and white florals, this scent opens with the heady sweetness of ylang-ylang and classic jasmine. Clary sage provides an aromatic, almost herbal counterpoint, giving it a green edge that some find refreshing and others, medicinal. A soft, clean musk underpins the florals, often described as soapy or powdery, evoking a sense of tranquil cleanliness rather than overt sensuality.
