Smells Like Happiness: My Favourite Lush Scents (And What They Say About You!)
Let’s face it, Lush doesn’t just make your skin happy, it makes your soul do a happy little dance too. Whether you’re a bath bomb connoisseur or a shower gel devotee, the scents you gravitate towards say a lot about your vibes.
So let’s have some fun: I’ve rounded up some of my absolute favourite Lush scents and paired them with the moods, mantras, and magical energies that I think they match best. (Please note this is all just a bit of fun, not linked to Lush in any way and is just me being a bit silly.)
1. Sweet & Fruity – You’re a Joy Seeker
Think: Snow Fairy, Yummy Custard, The Comforter
You’re the type to bring doughnuts to a meeting just because. You radiate sunshine and bubble-wrap your friends in support. You believe in the power of pink, playlists to get you through the day, and always saying yes to dessert.
Your vibe: Joyful chaos, glitter hugs, childlike wonder
Your ideal day: Dancing in your socks with a smoothie in hand
2. Earthy & Herbal – You’re a Grounded Dreamer
Think: Karma, Grass, Guardian of the Forest
You’re all about balance; barefoot walks, herbal tea, deep chats under moonlight. You probably own a houseplant that you’ve named. Most importantly, you are calm, steady, and sneakily magical.
Your vibe: Nature whisperer, soft power, steady glow
Your ideal day: A long walk, a long bath, and zero pings from your phone
3. Warm & Spicy – You’re a Quiet Flame
Think: Lord of Misrule, Turmeric Latte, Ginger
You’re a cosy mystery wrapped in a chunky knit jumper. You speak with intention, move with purpose, and people feel safe around you. You probably smell faintly of cinnamon and secrets.
Your vibe: Autumn soul, hot chocolate heart, mysterious charm
Your ideal day: A creative project, a fireside nook, and a playlist with lots of bass
4. Fresh & Citrusy – You’re a Zest for Life Human
Think: Avobath, Happy Hippy, Whoosh
You are the pep talk. Energetic, bright, and always on the move, you’ve got ideas for days and a to-do list that’s a scavenger hunt. You thrive on movement, mischief, and citrusy joy.
Your vibe: Bold beginnings, caffeine optimism, sparkle punch
Your ideal day: Sunrise hike, fresh juice, and something spontaneous

I think i’m a fruit and spicy. I like summer too much for me not to be.
Fresh & Citrusy, but I did think it said fresh and crusty
I’m a Sweet & Fruity for sure. At nearly 80 I can grow old disgracefully, loving every minute, wearing pjs all day if I want, blasting my 60s music.
