Super Milk

This is a review for the glitter spray version. Long winded so bear with me. Okay. When the Super Milk hair primer first came out I got a free sample from Lush. I wasn't impressed with the formula or the fragrance. It smelled like very burnt French toast with some maple syrup. Would've been good without the burnt aspect. I then wrote off this fragrance as "meh." Flash forward to April 2025. I saw they had the glitter sprays on display at the register when checking out. Out of curiosity, I sprayed it on my arm right before leaving. The initial smell was a sharp lemon / licorice. Again, I wrote it off as "meh." Very surprised by the hype surrounding this fragrance. Then, probably 10 minutes into my drive home, I started to smell something very nice. I smelled my arm, and it was the glitter spray! As the day went on and it dried down further, I liked it even more. I decided that I would purchase it and give it a try. I ordered a bottle for myself late August. Once it arrived, I sprayed it, and OMG! It was so synthetic! It had a sort of metallic licorice smell the entire duration of it sitting on my arm! Ended up scrubbing it off after an hour. I was BEYOND disappointed. Lush is known to have pretty hit or miss fragrances with different batches, so I figured I got a bad bottle. I tossed it in my gym bag and forgot about it. Last week I was cleaning out my gym bag and stumbled upon this confusing spray. Again, I decided to give it a try now that it has been opened for over a month. And it was even BETTER than the sample spray at the store in April! This perfume has given me so much whiplash, but now that it has finally settled, this is simply incredible. With all of that being said, here are my final thoughts : Great longevity for a body spray, lasts 5 hours. The dry down is very reminiscent of the Josie Maran Vanilla Vibez body butter, they smell almost identical to me. There is a slightly sharp lemon-y opening that smells VERY MUCH like Avocado Co-Wash from Lush, but without the throat tickling incense note. The dry down is more of a creamy, lactonic, COLD vanilla... like vanilla ice cream rather than a vanilla cake. But still much more appropriate for fall / winter than spring / summer. It may take some trial and error to find the version that you prefer, but I definitely recommend the glitter spray above all else. I also think this is great for people who tend to get tired of gourmands quickly. It's delicious, edible, and sweet, but not in a way that is too cloying or overly food-ish. Great value, great longevity, and an overall delicious fragrance!

(This is a review for the glitter mist spray, not the regular body mist spray! Read the last paragraph if you’re debating which version to get ) In my opinion the glitter mist spray is way closer to the original hair primer scent than the body mist spray. I first tried the super milk hair primer spray and absolutely fell in love with it. It smells like a warm, comforting, lemon sugar cookie. I’ve always loved gourmands but disliked citrus scents very much, so this took me aback with how much I adored it from the first time wearing it. I remember the first time I bought super milk, I sprayed it in my hair immediately after leaving the store. And while I was walking around the mall, I had 3 people come up to me and ask me what fragrance I was wearing because it smelled “heavenly.” One of the people who asked me literally ran up to me, they were sniffing me down around the mall and rushing to find me before I left so I could tell them what I had on. With all lush scents, it’s very strong and long lasting. I truly don’t mind paying around the $45 price point for lush body mists because they last longer than some perfume I have that cost $200. If you are thinking about which version of super milk body mist to buy, I’d say go for the glitter. The glitter smells closest to the original, most people say the standard body mist smells way too lemony and not enough gourmand, and that you can’t smell any of the coconut milk at all. I saw someone describe it as “windex with a sugar cookie smell” lol. Not to mention, the glitter mist is more bang for your buck as well. In the USA, the glitter mist is $26 for 8.4 fl oz, and the regular mist is $45 for 6.4 fl oz. Also I personally love the glitter aspect and packaging, I don’t care at all about packaging, but glitter mist packaging is “less ugly” than standard lush packaging. Overall, glitter mist wins in every category!

I’ve been wanting to try the body spray and original hair primer for some time, so I ordered both along with a Supermilk body butter and a lotion and body wash of Superfairy. The hair primer smells really good like sweet milk as well as the body butter, but the spray is named wrong. This is a creamy lemon meringue that reminds me of Lattafa Victoria a lot. It smells delicious and I love it but I feel like the body spray is false advertising and Lush missed the mark here. They should not have released a milk body spray unless it was going to smell like the original hair product. With that said, the potency is surprising for a body spray and at least they make it worth the 40 bucks they charge! I really like this and I’m definitely going to be wearing it! Edit 9/2: So I’m actually really loving this!! On clothing the lemon is stronger but on my skin it smells like à lemon amaretti cookie( biscuit) with a rich creaminess that is so yummy and cozy! I layered this as my bedtime scent with Super Fairy body wash and Super Fairy body lotion, Bath and Body Works Milk lotion, and Orena Fragrances Strawberry Marshmallow body oil and it smells incredible! The body spray is so strong that even with the very potent oil, the spray is the main scent dominating. In case you’re wondering about Super Fairy, it smells like the pink amoxicillin you used to get as a kid, when you smell it in the containers, but leaves a much better smell on the skin.

At first, I was skeptical of buying this body spray because a ton of people said that it smelled nothing like the hair primer. I really liked the way the hair primer smelt and ended up getting a sample of it when I was getting another body spray by lush. When the body spray finally came out, I can see what people are saying about it not smelling similarly to the primer however, once you allow the body spray to dry down, it’s actually really nice and I would say maybe 70% similar. I did not like the glitter body spray. It did not last on me and I feel like it’s a distant cousin of the hair primer. Anyways, about this body spray, it lasted very long on me. I had sprayed it on myself around 3 PM the previous day while being in my house and I still smelt it on myself the next day at night. I couldn’t smell it because it was very faint, but for some reason, my sister did when she was very close to me. When you first initially spray it, it’s very lemon-y but it does dry down into a really nice vanilla biscuit. It kind of reminds me of Jackie Ainas Hard to Get. I like it. I think if you’re skeptical, go in the store, spray it on yourself, let it marinate and come to a conclusion yourself if you like it or not.

In the opening, it is very similar to the primer, but as it dries down, all I get is vanilla and almond. It's a very smooth vanilla, very creamy like nut milks, but to my nose, it's lacking some citrus and the warmth and spice of the primer on the drydown. It's quite reminiscent of BBW's Vanilla Bean Noel on the skin, almost plasticky, artificial, but if you can get past that, it's really quite delightful. It's very strong on the intial spritz but dries down to sit closer to the skin, to within an arms-length. I paired this with Avocado Co-Wash to replace that lemon note I love so much, and my younger students walked into my classroom exclaming "why do I smell cookies!!!" -- And my coworkers pass by me saying I smell sweet like candy. If that's any indication to what this smells like, I hope it helps. To me, it just smells creamy and not too warm or heavy, creamy like the hair primer consistency hehe.
