Lush Forum Fragrance Round Holiday 2012

I missed out on the announcement for the Lush Forum Fragrance Round for Holiday 2012. You can thank reader, Shirl, who commented about it otherwise I wouldn’t have known as I haven’t been on the Lush UK forum in a while!

Here’s a few more details!

Every year Lush does a special forum fragrance round for members of the forum. In recent years they have extended to the US and also included it as a website purchase (it used to be that you had to call to order but last year I ordered online easily!).

The fragrances that will be made this year are:

  • Rose Jam (Price: 25 Pounds)
  • Comforter (20 Pounds)
  • Twilight (25 Pounds)
  • Big (22 Pounds)
  • Cream Candy (18 Pounds)
  • Snowcake (22 Pounds)

These have all been made before however, if you never purchased from a Lush Forum Fragrance round it’s a good excuse to haul them. Yes, they smell like their namesakes. Yes, they are strong, have excellent linger, and are well worth the $$$! Yes, Snowcake is damn awesome as a perfume.

If you have a Lush lover in your life this would be a mighty nice way to surprise them with something special! The party for the fragrances will be December 7th.

I have no idea if the US plans on doing a fragrance collection this year as well. Possibly they will so if you want to hold out and wait for news from Lush NA I’ll try to bring it to you as it becomes available, no guarantees it’ll happen though!

For more details you can visit the Lush forum at forum.lush.co.uk

About the Muse

Isabella MuseIsabella is just an average everyday geeky girl who doesn’t blend her eyeshadow correctly, wears too much blush, and hopes she never finds her holy grail products because she likes the thrill of the chase so much. Her mission is to bring you super honest reviews on makeup, skincare, fragrance and all things beauty. She’s in no way an expert on the topic and she sure as hell isn’t a super model. But she’s passionate about makeup and is seeking like-minded individuals that like pina coladas, getting caught in the rain, and ones that enjoy spending hundreds of dollars at Sephora without feeling buyer’s remorse.

      not sure what links you mean rena…the sale hasn’t even started yet? it starts on the 7th.

  • rena

    ahh, IC. It must be my internet settings the links provided don’t work for me

    • the Muse

      I haven’t a clue what links you are talking about? I only included a link to old posts in here and the one to the Lush forum. Not sure what you mean?

      • the Muse

        like I said the sale hasn’t started yet so there aren’t links to post…?

  • MM Curator

    I just got the email about this…sooooo excited as I just got into Snowcake soap last year and totally missed the perfume! Now’s my chance to get it! Glad to hear it smells great in perfume form. Do you happen to know how Rose Jam or Creamy Candy are? Thanks!!

    • the Muse

      rose jam I got last year and it is STRONG. Very nice but a little too strong as a perfume. It’s kinda candied rose. It goes a wee bit car air freshener on me. Creamy Candy is like candy fluff/rock star soap/snow fairy-ish. That typically Lush Candy Fluff scent ;-D I have about 8 bottles of snow cake *hangs head* but I still want to grab two more JUST in case. Oh the shame!

  • Clancy

    Never mind, I got some of this information on the site. Still not finding Comforter though.

  • Clancy

    Found it now. Sorry for hammering you with comments. I’d still like your evaluations and/or rankings of the fragrances!

    • the Muse

      they all smell like their name sakes clancy…twilight like twilight shower gel/bath bomb comforter like the bubble bar and big like the shampoo and ocean salt scrub 🙂

  • Leeann Lichtenberger

    Lush NA has confirmed they will have all six of the UK voted fragrances and are having a chat party for them on Dec. 13th.

  • Cat

    Is it possible to order them from overseas? I’m in New Zealand, but would love to try one!

    • the Muse

      cat I know they ship worldwide BUT not sure about new zealand, check the website and try to check out see if it offers shipping for you!

  • Melissa

    I love rose jam so I think it’s time I buy the perfume. Is it worth the risk of waiting to see if it shows up on NA or would you if you were me and LOVE rose jam go ahead and order from the uk one?

    • the Muse

      order it from uk not really sure if we are having a fragrance round best be safe than cry later ;D

  • Shirel

    Yay I get to make people spend more money on Lush (feels slightly evil now)

    • the Muse

      LOL ;-D it’s a good feeling ;-D I meant to ask you is creamy candy the same creamy candy we know and I love? Candy fluff/rock star?

      • Shirel Gar

        That’s the problem, no one is really sure of that yet, if you manage to get on the forum then there’s someone organizing a decanting circle to buy small amounts of the perfume, it’s on the swap thread

        • the Muse

          oh I have a feeling I’ll love it so I’m good with a full size hehe…I assume it is a creamy candy melt scent aka candy fluffy/candy bubble bar scent ;-D shirl are you in the uk or us?

          • Shirel Gar

            I haven’t smelt the bubble bar nor the soap so I’m not sure if I’ll get it but I think my sister might love it so I’m in debate about it…
            And I’m from Israel 🙂

          • the Muse

            it’s really sweet and fruity with a bit of vanilla ;-D if you like girly girl scents you’ll love it ;-D that is if it is the same creamy candy I know ;-D Israel!? wow! how did you hearing about my site? 😀

  • Zora

    Ohhh finally! After two years as a perfume-loving Lushie, I’m getting the announcement for the UK forum party beforehand! Can’t wait to order Big and Comforter! Two of my favourite product scents 🙂

    Do you have Big? Does it have that amazing scent that Big has when it lathers, or smell more like it does in the pot?

    Also, will the link to purchase these be posted on the main UK site? Because I’ve never been able to register at the forum and last time I checked I couldn’t view it at all.

    • the Muse

      hi zora. How are you? I do. It smells more like ocean salt/big in the pot. Kinda ocean salt/lime. 🙂 I dunno. So far it is announced on the forum. Last year they were available through the website but every other year it’s been calling the order in. I don’t have any other info as of yet. I imagine the party started already so you might want to call already to place the order or perhaps twitter/facebook!

    • the Muse

      zora just an update, called England just few secs ago, they confirmed it is online but any special products or LE items would be announced online!

      • Zora

        Hi! Thank you! Online as in on the main site? I hope that’s what they meant! I’ll check first thing tomorrow. 🙂

        You don’t sound very excited about the Big scent, haha, so I won’t get my hopes up to be blown away by it. But I know I’ll have to order it anyway! I have little self-control when it comes to Lush perfume XD

        Though I do wish I were more of a Snowcake or candy scent fan, so I’d have more to be excited about this year, at least this means I won’t have to go broke like I did with Lush NA’s LE perfumes last Christmas! I totally freaked out and ordered duplicates of everything, and now I have enough Twilight, Silky, American Cream, Y&C and Olive Branch to last me ’til death. (Lol and obviously you can relate!)

        • the Muse

          that’s what they told me 🙂 and forums specials/le will be listed on the forum during the party. No, I actually love it ;-D I just kinda wish they did something I don’t already have tons of hehe ;-D you’ll like it! I think it’s lovely ;-D true to Big scent. I TOTES know what you mean ;-D I have SO many bottles of them over the course of ten years I’ve collected many!

          • Zora

            Omg, 10 years! I’m afraid of what my perfume collection might look like in 10 years!

            But in that case, I have another question for you: do you find that the Lush perfumes actually expire when they say they will? All of my bottles have expiration dates, and my local Lush store actually sold me what I’m pretty sure is an expired bottle of Tuca Tuca last year (they took the sticker off, so sneaky), but having only smelled the solid Tuca in comparison, I can’t tell if it smells different than it should or not. It’s different from the solid, but it still seems okay to me… I think.

            But either way, with a collection like mine (and at the prices they charge for just 1 oz!), it’d be nice to know that my perfumes will be safe for a good long while… what do you think? How long do you find they last until they start to smell weird?

          • the Muse

            I have like ten bottle of snowcake lol! and still want more. it’s a disease ;-D no not really…I’ve seriously had a bottle of ginger for like 12 years and it still smells incredible….they do change color slightly sometimes which isn’t good as they can stain clothes sometimes. I’ve never had an issue. I can’t speak for Gorilla of course as that’s still very new but the forum fragrances are still fresh for me and smell as strong as the day I originally purchased them. I stock piled ginger when it dc’ed and it still smells as amazing as the first day I purchased. no weird smells yet thankfully ;-D one thing, I do store them in a box, in a dark closet, this def helps!

  • Zora

    It really is a disease, isn’t it?! Heh. As much as I adore Lush and as much as discovering their products changed my life, I sometimes kinda wish I had remained oblivious to their fantastic-smelling and amazing EVERYTHING. I used to be able to save money! XD

    Ahh, but you know it’s all worth it when you get out of your Lush bath/shower, slather yourself in Lush products, mist yourself with Lush perfume and get to smell incredible all day… right? 🙂 Thanks so much for answering all of my questions!

    • the Muse

      LOL zora agreed! ;-D hey at least we are great smelling poor girls hehehehe! my pleasure!!!!!!!!!

  • Dana

    Thanks for the heads up on this. I would love to have Twilight. That is one of my favorite scents aside from Vanillary.

  • Shirel Gar

    I found it a few months back while searching for reviews on Lush products 😀 no stores here and the last time I was in one was 2010 but I love it so I blind order a lot and reviews help me choose things

    • the Muse

      aw that’s brilliant love that you discovered me via lush reviews ;-D I’m a huge Lush fan so I’m happy to meet another one ;-D! I hope my reviewed helped you decide on some good products!
