Tuca Tuca

First it has an sticky, dark dollish sweetness to it like a Barbie mixed with petrol. After a while it turns into a sweet, violetty almost rubbery kind of scent. It's a quite sharp, sweet dark heavy fragrance. I don't know if I like it or not.... If I spray it on clothes it seems to be much more refined and delicate, maybe that's what I have to do :)) I'll try it on for a while and come back to edit...!! Edit: I've decided that I like the smell, it turned into an amazing powdery violettyfloral smell on me after a while. Well done again, Lush!! Först uppstår en väldigt skarp "Barbie" doft uppblandat med bensin!! Inget jag alls uppskattar.... har till och med svårt att utröna några som helst noter då doften är mycket skarp och "frätande". Den tonar ner sig efter ett tag men är fortfarande ganska gummiliknande i doften med noter av sötma och viol. Har svårt att avgöra om jag tycker om den eller inte.... När jag sprayar den på mina kläder framstår den mycket mer raffinerande och delikat... Jag kommer att använda den ett tag för att sedan återkomma och redigera...!! Edit: Jag har bestämt mig för att jag tycker om doften, den förvandlas till en fantastisk, pudrig, violettblommig doft på mig efter ett tag. Bra gjort igen..... Lush!!!

You’re turning violet, Violet! These are violets with a sense of humor. My friends, family, and co-workers loathe the days that spritz the Tuca Tuca but some days, like today, I cannot resist. I am in a violet phase and Tuca Tuca is my favorite. My husband-type person told me that I smelled putrefied this morning and that put a smile on my face. I arrived at work and my cubicle neighbor gagged and commented that I was wearing “that” again. I don’t wear it often because it gets such a strong reaction but I must admit that I enjoy some of the strong emotions that this one commands. Tuca Tuca is syrupy, reminds me French candied violets if they were left out in a humid climate and the sugar began to run and drizzle. I swear the juice looks brown when I squirt it on my wrists; it’s very potent and long lasting. I also have the Tuca Tuca massage bar which I enjoy rubbing on my legs and then the scent wafts up. Good stuff.

It's just soo cute!:) I own the EdT and the solid perfume version and I love both of them.:)This scent is "The Lipstick-smell" of my childhood. Every time when I wear it's just makes me smile.:) The Edp is much more dynamic than the solid perfume, at the beginning violet dominant with vetiver, other notes aren't detectable in the opening. After a few minutes it's settles down to a powdery, semi-bittersweet violet touch, lightly spiced with a pale sigh of vanilla. The solid perfume is loud too, but it's heavier, stickier, the "hard-core" version of the Edt without the bitterness. Violet, vanilla,mimosa and ylang played the lead role, the violet leaves just hiding.Slightly sweet, smokey violet drydown with musk ever after.:) Smokey, dusty, powdery violet scent. I prefer the solid version.:) Playful, flirty, naughty and insolent fragrance. Strong perfume for girls with strong individuality!;)

Usually not fond of dark or heady scents, I find this addictive and sultry in a dirty way. The first few minutes upon applying, it made me smell like a heavy smoker and gave me a bit of a headache. But after the drydown, the powdery, smoky, woody smell kept me sniffing at my wrists unconsciously. I do agree with a lot of reviews in saying that it feels wintry, and I would probably only use this at night. EDIT: I can't get over how intoxicating this scent is to me. I have just been able to put my finger on where I have smelt it before, and it's from Lush's Tramp shower gel (I have been in love with the woody smell of the product for years, but have not been able to purchase it for a while in my area). I always thought of the gel as a summer smell, but the perfume completely proved me wrong. If you are a fan of the product or into woody unisex scent, I highly recommend this perfume.

I tried the Lush solid perfumes and this one turned out the nicest on my skin. When I got home I asked my mum to smell my wrist and she said "mm is that Guerlain". :)I suppose it smells expensive on me. I actually tried on a violet perfume by Guerlain once, but it didn't quite sit with my skin as nicely as this does. The silage is quite good but not in an overpowering way. It smells yummy.I love that it has Ylang Ylang and vanilla in it as well as the violets. I am grateful to the attendant at Lush who told me to wait 15m for the perfume to develop. I am used to alcohol based perfumes so I wasn't aware of how long it would take, and on first sniff I wasn't quite as crazy about it. Will become my everyday becasue of the great ingredients and due to the fact I can carry it in my handbag.

Oh Tuca Tuca, how I love thee :) I grew up eating Parma Violets and so I have a special love for violet scented anything. This so far is my favorite violet perfume. It has the right amount of sweet vanilla and powder. It's not as cloying as Insolence, and not as green and fresh as Love in Black. It's just right to me. I also have the massage bar (sadly, discontinued) and it smells like heaven. I keep it in my underwear drawer. I'm afraid to use it up! I only have a 10 mL spray of this but after rediscovering it after a couple years, now I realize why I bought it in the first place. It's just yummy and the sillage is perfect. It's not overbearing. If you can find a better sweet vanilla violet, let me know, but for now, this is the best one I can possibly imagine.

When my partner offered to buy me something from Lush I knew right away that I was going to snap up Tuca Tuca in solid form! Usually I prefer sickeningly sweet perfumes over floral scents but something about this just rang my bell. I love the way the violets in Tuca Tuca are heavier, almost too much with a soft powdery linger and a tiny hint of sweet that just catches me! I find it very relaxing, long lasting, with an earthy, sexy feel to it. The solid perfume is rather greasy and almost tacky but it does moisturize and lasts for a very long time (which truly surprises me as I've had many others that fade faster). I will definitely be replacing it once its used up!

I think this smells best in the "Don't Rain on my Parade" shower gel, as it seems to mellow all the parts out. The solid is my follow up, as it seems sweeter, quieter, and less harsh than the spray, even if the spray lasts longer. And, oddly, the spray is bright orange...and stains. Learned that the hard way. RIP white blouse! I like this, but I feel it needs a touch of something bitter, which is why I pair it with my Lolita Lempicka Minuit Noir. The patchouli in it seems to tame the sweetness a little better than the violet leaf and vetiver manage. The ylangylang and sandalwood make the vanilla-sweetness much more interesting. I don't get any mimosa in this.

I grew up eating Parma Violets, so I think that's why I have such a place for violet in my heart. I think it smells so yummy. This reminds me of those candies as well. It kinda smells like the Vanillary perfume but with lots and lots of violet. It's ALMOST a violet overload, but not quite if you go really easy on it. Lush's perfumes are quite strong, and this one is no exception. It's really yummy, just very strong! Edit: I tried layering this with Lush's Vanillary and I liked it even more! The vanilla subdued the intense violet and made it more approachable. This combination is what I expected from Guerlain's Insolence, but didn't get.

No other violet fragrance has ever come close to my beloved Tuca Tuca, not through lack of searching. I have a few precious drops left in the pen vial they used to sell and half of a push-up solid perfume. Starts as a fresh, sweet burst of violet, mimosa, cassis, vanilla. The earthy, woodier notes come forward, predominantly violet leaf, supported by the lingering sweetness of the initial spray. Within an hour, the sweet and fresh has morphed into a strong, dark, seductive, intoxicating, gothic violet ❤️ I mourn the fact this beautiful scent was discontinued and regularly check to see if it's been resurrected. I can dream...

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE TUCA TUCA! Yet when it was first released, i hated it the first few days i wore it.... But after the second day, i was hooked! It opens with a very smokey vetiver and screechy violet note, but after an hour it starts to dry down into the skin with a buttery vanilla sweetness with a violet cream accord. It's a warm, intoxicating and seriously sexy scent. HANDS DOWN the BEST LUSH FRAGRANCE! Also, as all 'Gorilla Perfumes at Lush' fragrances are made with a high essential oil content, the juice in most will NOT be clear like synthetic juices. DO NOT spray on clothes or sheets - perfume is for the skin.

It is with no doubt a love or hate scent... and i love it!!! It reminds me of a fairytale, when you enter a forest... dark, mystirious, woody, so unique which words can not express, you just have to be there and live the moment! In the beginning i couldnt stand the smell, but then i tried it again and again, so finally i fell inlove. after an hour wearing this the smell is even deeper and refined... do try it a few times before you judge it, it has a modern twist to it which you need to explore slowly. It lasts for ages on your skin as this is made from the finest natural ingridients!

Tuca Tuca is way underestimated. It's got soul. It's not a "Hey, smell me over here!" kind of fragrance. It's modest, not overpowering, sexy, feminine, and soft. I have it in the solid perfume and love it. I often put in on and a little goes a long way. It's no offensive and it's not in your face either. Tuca Tuca is probably a real summertime fragrance but I think it would work any season, any time of day and it would smell great on a man.

Strong violet, good sillage. Starts off as quite sweet violet but dries down to a more woody violet. I don't find this particularly powdery (I love a powdery violet) its there but subtle, smoky, woodyness takes over more than the powder. I also disagree that this is light and flirty it feels like a darker sexier violet in comparison to the lighter, greener kerbside violet.

LUSH describe this as playful and I do get that from this scent. But it's not playful in a childlike, innocent way. Remember that scene in the film "Live and Let Die", with the funeral parade through New Orleans? That is Tuca Tuca! A voodoo priestess at Mardi Gras, and I love it!

Solid perfume, loved this and not in Lush au anymore :( Think musty cabin mixed with incense and dried flowers. I get a real gypsy caravan / witches wardrobe vibes. Sweetness balanced by out by powder and smokeyness. ⛤⛤⛤⛤

I was obesessed with my little solid perfume of Tuca Tuca. Unforgettable scent. I just ordered a dupe from PerfumepeopleLtd on Etsy. It's an oil roll-on called Tucker - The Quirky Line.

very nice violet's perfume,very sugary ,sweet mimosa and sandal. and very strong ,persistent,with good silage.I'll buy it cos it was love from the first sniff :).

I bought the massage bar and I have to say that I love this scent. It makes me feel light, flirty and ever so relaxed. Yummy!

I love this perfume its so dark, intimate and gritty. Im very sad its not continued, ive only a little left on the stick.
