Goddess

First of all, let me make it clear that this scent is absolutely *gorgeous*. After falling in love with the bath bomb (highly recommend that as well!) and then falling even more in love with the solid perfume, I took the plunge on the liquid perfume. It's intoxicating - if you like something floral and earthy but not sweet, this scent is for you. It has a deep, smoky layer to it too which really draws me in. It's sensual, it's unique, it makes me feel confident. Now on to the negative for me: The lasting power. This is one of Lush's most expensive perfumes at $75 for just 30ml (probably because of the oud oil?) and at that price, I was really expecting the scent to last all day. Maybe it's just something to do with my skin, but it does NOT last long at all. Two sprays of Pansy will have me still smelling like Pansy eight hours later; three to four sprays of Goddess, and I'm struggling to smell it on myself a couple of hours later. I love it and want to wear it every day, but at the rate I'd be going through it, I just can't justify the price. I think it will have to be a special occasion perfume for me. I'll keep buying it, but it won't be an every day scent like I had hoped. One final note: I recommend smelling this scent in person before going for the liquid perfume because it has a lot going on and isn't for everyone. The solid perfume gives a good idea of the liquid. And if you are looking for a distincly jasmine-scented perfume, I'd go with Lust - the jasmine isn't center stage in Goddess.

one of my all time favorites, this perfume is both dark and playful, spicy and sweet, makes me feel like a sexy sprite. some friends have described the smell as almost like root beer, i think i'd agree if it weren't also distinctly green. i would recommend this perfume to someone who isn't shy but likes playing hard to get.

I really do love the scent. It's beautiful and harmonic. But the scent fades after a short time. It's faint and still there. But I do wish it lasted longer, since these are such strong notes, and it being so pricey

This would be so much better if the rose, jasmine and sandalwood took center stage, but the oudh makes it very overpowering and dark. Reminds me of flowers in a basement.

The solid perfume is my favorite picktimeless, soft but sultry scent reminiscent of breath of god with rose & jasmine hints. New favorite

I have smelled Goddess the bath bomb and I think it's lovely; soft, dusky and mysterious. Jasmine and oud are two of my favorite scents. However, for me personally, it just doesn't translate well into an actual perfume unfortunately. For me the perfume is slightly rank; sour and bitterly herbal. In fact it reminds me very much of an Aveda hairspray. No offense if you love it, but it just did not work for me at all.

Walking into LUSH... looking for a fragrance solid, is hard. They are all so darned good. There is a definite alchemy to be appreciated here, for such a great price. This perfume reminds me of Arabic and French perfumes. There is a timelessness to it, a maturity. This reminds me of Shalimar, or Chanel no.5. Absolutely love the sandalwood, rose, jasmine. The oud is slightly indole, but somehow kind of fresh. This is a definite do-over.
