Superworld Unknown

I absolutely love this perfume but understand how it really isn't for everyone. Personally, I first picked it up because I grew up with my mum wearing insolence by guerlain nonstop and the neroli citrusy rose notes in this make me feel like I'm wearing my own younger iteration of her favourite scent hahaha... As someone who usually hates sweet smelling perfumes, this one hits completely different. When you first spray it, the citrus really comes through like lemonade but it settles into a really irresistible escapist scent. It takes you away completely from where you are and personally makes me feel like I'm incredibly excited and laughing with friends after we've just hopped a fence and snuck into a festival. If you're not a fan of sweet scents don't let that stop you! I find only the cocoa brings the sweetness and even then its quite grounding and doesn't hit you in the head like vanilla does. The ylang ylang definitely attributes to the imaginative vibe with this! Definitely not a lowkey scent though! Every time I wear this people point it out and I love it :-) Also reminds me of lemonade by sophie if it were a perfume...... I put it on every time I want to forget about my responsibilities !

One of my all time favourite Lush Perfumes, I used to own the old style bottle about 9 years ago which didn’t have a spray nozzle and although it was difficult to apply I appreciated the scent. Now I have the spray version I can smell the notes a lot better and have fallen in love even more. It opens with a fresh sherbety lime which settles with the Cocoa and Rose. A truly unique fragrance that is addictive. It’s sweet but has many layers and has the complexity that a lot of sweet fragrances lack. It’s very heady so probably more suited to cool summer days, the scent is strong and lingers a clothing for days. There’s something about this fragrance that is nostalgic and brings me cheer everytime I smell it. After a while it smells very similar to 29 high street perfume from Lush. Applied heavily this does have a “cleaner” type smell, but the freshness soon dies down and the beautiful lime, rose and benzoin shine through. This and “All good things” are my favourite fragrances from that time and I would love to find a fresh bottle of that to alternate with this in the autumn months.

This is quite a unique smell. It's very hard to describe, but for me, it smells initially of lime and citrus, but then it softens into a bit of a sweet and sandalwood-y scent. The website describes it as "candy-floss", but I think that's misleading because it's not really that sweet. It's slightly sweet, but not like sugar. The scent to me is quite effervescent, if that makes sense. It's like 7-Up meets sandalwood. Ok, that sounds weird, but it's hard to describe. Let's just say, it works. It smells like nothing I have ever smelled in my life. I really do like it. I was excited to finally get my hands on some since I live in the USA. EDIT: I've realized two things about this scent: 1.) It really does grow on you after a while 2.) It could really be unisex

This perfume is made with high quality natural ingredients. LUSH should be able to charge a higher price. I didn't have the experience I imagined when I heard about the amusement park. But it does have a nostalgic scent like the candy from my childhood. It's difficult to wear this fragrance in the middle of a summer day. If you wear it in summer, the evening is more suitable. I learned the news about the end of sales. I would like it to be restocked.

First spritz I was full of regret as a lime/alcohol concoction overpowered my senses. But it dried down to a lovely sandalwood limeade and by the end of the day smelled like powdery incense and citrus candy on my skin. Love love love. So glad I got a bottle, I'm sure I'll have wished I got two if it's going to be another 10 years before I see it again. edit: for Lush fans, the opening and beginning of it smells very similar to Calacas on my skin

I'm obsessed with this. Love the fresh blast of lime in the beginning, then what smells *exactly* like salted fried dough to me (at least it smells just like my Gateau de Carnavale from Kyse) and then a powdery very light rose at the end. Incredible staying power on me, I still smell it 12 hours later which on my skin is pretty impressive. I wanted a fresh but sweet gourmand-ish scent and that's what this is.

Superworld Unknown is hands down my favorite scent , so multi faceted and a gem in my collection everyone should give this a try and enjoy the beauty this perfume is . Unfortunately I heard this is being discontinued....

This is one limey bastard! I don't know what circus/theme parks are like in Britain, but this product doesn't smell like an American one. "Superworld Unknown" is really weird and the product keeps changing the longer I've had it. I never got much of the sweet candy scent mentioned, to me it was just mainly lime, and a soft, sweetish, masculine powdery wood smell. Very unusual fragrance. Weird in the same way "B Scent" is. Not unpleasant, just weird. Edit: Oh my gosh, I feel bad for giving this such a wishywashy review on the Lush website! My solid has aged amazingly! So much so I had to hunt down the liquid on ebay, and amazingly, was lucky for once in my life and acquired some! Lush definitely has a way of making your sense of smell evolve. I was so mad initially that this didn't smell like a sibling of Snow Fairy, but I can appreciate it so much more now. It's definitely the older, more sophisticated sibling! If you do a bath cocktail of Creamy Candy bubblebar, Enchanter bathbomb, and Happy Thoughts bath melt you get an approximation of Superworld Unknown. In my opinion, anyway! ;)

This perfume is difficult to understand lol. At first you get a lot of sour zesty citrus notes (a lot of lime which reminds me of Zesty/Calacas) you‘d say you‘re wearing a citrus scent. But no, then it turns into a woody aromatic sandalwood scent which reminds me for some reason of Smuggler‘s Soul. It‘s almost a little bit spicy? When it settles down, that blends with a sweet vanilla/tonka musky powdery base and smells a little bit like candy floss. It changes a lot. It‘s very unique and I like it but it‘s not my favourite. Too many different elements, it changes like a chameleon lmao. But like I said it‘s a playful fragrance I wear here and then. I‘m very happy I have it in my collection though. Also it reminds me a little bit of Love, both of these have a fruity apple note in them. But man, you really have to sit down and really try to understand it because it always smells so different haha! The sillage is great, it‘s not overpowering!

You know those girls in Harajuku who dress like life-sized creepy dolls? Imagine a perfume for one of them who has come to her senses, lost patience with the excessive daily grooming, and decided to get a degree in botany. This is her perfume. First off I get lime and a slightly yeasty smell, then a mild woody rose and a creamy lemon, which is a nice trick if you can do it. The biggest and nicest surprise was the next phase, which was strawberry. Yeasty bread dough strawberry! How do you not love that? Very decent longevity with a dry down of greenish powder. Our girl wears this when she's taking a night off from her Latin binomials to go out and drink beer with her friends.

I work at Lush and only got this as it was getting written off and no one else wanted it. I was prepared for the worse, and the description of a sweet and tart fragrance makes no sense in this case. Superworld Unknown smells like a sour sort of church cellar. The whole tangy-sweet, circus vibe is null and void. It's odd like the Marquis de Sade scent by Etat Libre D'orange with a soda quality to it. The version that I'm catching is weird in a niche way, but my bottle is years old so it's past that marination period.

This is a very lovely lime based fragrance. Impressed with how the lime has been made to have staying power here, and the combination of lime with tonka & benzoin creates this - well, otherwordly- juxtaposition of what is essentially such a fundamentally fresh note par none with soft sweetness. Its a curious composition that works. Bright green lime with soft amber, out of this world candy. Unique. Lime ice cream waffle cone.

At first whiff, this kind of just smells like soap. But if I close my eyes, I can imagine walking through the woods at night, heading towards the carnival lights in the distance, with happy music faintly and something sweet carrying across the night air. For me, ylang ylang added into any fragrance gives it an enchanted, ethereal vibe. If nothing else, its really wearable as a daytime, spring/summer perfume imo

This is s strange, but not wholly unpleasant scent. Starts out pine/citrus fresh, like a cleaner or a bug repellent, but morphs into something more like fruity sweets/bubblegum. Nice, but not something I'd wear very often.

This smells like lime candy sweets! Very sweet and somewhat 'fizzy' to me, a good scent for youthful personalities of all ages.

I got the solid version cheap on ebay. I was able to gaslight myself into thinking this smells like sherbet but there is no candy floss or toffee apples. If you are looking for gourmand I'd try something else. You may be able to gaslight yourself into thinking it smells like sherbet if you try tho.

I wanted to really like you, Superworld Unknown. I was recommended this by a worker after testing some & seeing this, being lured in by it's descriptors of gourmands & tart-ness. There is no hint of any sort of gourmand. Nadda. None. It just smelled like another bland overtly-crowded floral to me, really. Which by it's note list on here, makes sense. Really disappointing considering I was looking forward to it's cocoa-lime notes.

I have to write a new review for this one. It smells very medicinal, not feminine...smells like pine and a bit Jean Nate, and it is NOT what I remember! Not what I thought it would be!! I am NOT sure which Lush product a had before, maybe Karma? Superworld Unknown does NOT work for me. WAY too odd. Superweird Unknown.

Review for the Kitchen May 2023 solid perfume version: sadly I thought I would like it but I don ́t. Okay at first but after an hour or so it ́s kind of old lady sweet and floral on my skin.

It smells like medicine. Blind bought and really regret it. This is not a fragrance !!! It's like herbs in oil .... and so masculine
