Finally! I have been waiting for this to be added to the database for so long and now I'm very excited to review it! The fragrance starts off with a blast of lemongrass and lime. If you love lemongrass, you'll find this intoxicating. It's very fresh and summery. Oh but wait... there's more... As the lime and lemongrass fade, the tonka and vanilla come out with a hint of caramel. The drydown is like a creamy, sweet cheesecake, with a sprinkle of powder. It's thick, delicious, and so unusual. The lemongrass with a hint of citrus never really leaves, but remains in the background even through the drydown. From the topnotes, it would seem this perfume is more suited to summer, however the drydown is rich, thick, powdery, sweet, and to me could be more suited to Fall. One more thing I appreciate about this is that it reminds me of my beloved Avoshower limited edition shower gel. I am clinging to the last ounces of this with my life but the perfume helps fill that hole! Overall, beautiful, unique, lovely perfume. Sillage and longevity average to above average. A-

At first it starts off with a blast of lemongrass and lime.... very strong! But only minutes later it fades away and a vanillacaramel note along with the tonka appears, sooo delicious!! Mmmmm, a unique lovely scent with a powdery hint.... reminds me a little bit of a cake but at the same time very fresh. One of my favorite from Lush along with Karma, Love, Ginger and Orange blossom... by the way... I love most everything from Lush :)) Till en början doftar den citrongräs och lime.... mycket starkt! Vaniljtoner och karamelltoner finns dock med hela tiden i bakgrunden, sååå ljuvlig. När de första skarpa tonerna har lagt sig (ganska omgående) tar vaniljkaramellaktiga och tonka bean över och 25:43 doftar ljuvligt!!!! Mmmmm, en unik underbar doft med en aningen pudrig känsla... påminner lite grann om en bakelse, men samtidigt fräsch. En av mina favoriter från Lush, tillsammans med Karma, Love, Ginger och Orange blossom... för övrigt äääälskar jag det mesta från Lush.

This perfume captured my fancy at the LUSH boutique in Abu Dhabi in 2012. The top note is definitely lime and lemongrass with a bit of hay. When it is first sprayed, the smell is a bit overwhelming so go easy on it if you are going to be in tight quarters quickly. Once the top notes mellow out, the base notes with caramel, tonka, vanilla come out to play and on my skin, the result is a very nice gourmand fragrance that makes others within my personal bubble say, "Something smells amazing. Is that you?" This is simple, yet classy and light scent for the type of girl or perhaps guy that likes a fresh, citrusy beginning with a warm & decadent end. Definitely a unique fragrance that I would recommend to those that are looking for something delightfully innocent.

I loved this perfume from the first sniff. I was in lush store buying shower gels and sniffing my way around the store when the sales person asked me what perfume I was wearing. I'm pretty sure I stupidly applied lemongrass and vanilla essential oils directly to my skin. She pulled me over to the perfume display and sprayed this for me. I went through two bottles and multiple travel sprays during the time that it came as in production. I worked at a department store at the time and I smelled different to most people working on the sales floor. Getting complimented that you just smell good all the time and not overly perfumey is the best. It was earthy, sweet and fresh all at the same time. I haven't found anything that smells like it since.
