Got my fragrance oil , its DEAD ringer for the LUSH fragrance, I noticed it has vanilla in it
anyone know how it behaves in CP?
Discoloration?
Seizing?
 
do you like that smell? I ordered it and pew, I havent soaped it, have a hard time making something that I dont like the smell.
 
I don't like this scent at all! To me it smells nothing like my beloved Karma.
I soaped this about one month ago in CP and it smells...actually, awful. I think I will be dumping the whole batch to be honest with you.
 
oh nooooo, its smells good in the bottle. Does the smell morph?
Smells like Karma to me.
Now I'm scared
 
Ive never smelled karma before, but I heard people talk about it, omg it does not smell good, kinda earthy grasslike? hard to describe.
 
I don't purchase from WSP. But that's what Lush's smells like to me, and Agilex's, and Scent Works, and Daystar's.

With a tiny touch of vanilla.

Those that I've smelled all smell different from each other - none are dead on Lush dupes - but they all have the same general orange-patch character.

I've soaped Scent Works and Agilex's and they don't discolor or accelerate. For more info on how a fragrance behaves please visit the Scent Review Board. http://soapscentreview.obisoap.ca/ Join, read, contribute.

I have to say, I was very disapointed in the Lush fragrance dups...I've never been to a Lush, never smelled their products and decided since I'm always reading how fantastic their scents are to try Day Stars dups of some of the Lush fragrances. I was really excited when they came, I had to smell them right away. P-EW is right. Out of the bottle, they stink. If they are even remotely similiar to Lush's I just don't get all the attraction. Ok, so I think I'll put them in little soap samples like I do alot of the other fragrances I get and give them a chance.

I did them last night..some are only slightly better than P-EW. The jasmine honey smell is ok...the karma dupe is ok...the toffee crunch is weak at best...the others...oh my gosh...the citrus flurry one is a instant headache as was the vanilla sugar dust. I'm going to put them in the basement for a few days and smell them again over the next few weeks but boy what a let down.

I got the liquid crack, vanilla rock and roll, fluffy almond icing, toffee sugar, kazi-kazi, citrus flurries, vanilla sugar dust and jasmine honey. Sorry to hijack this thread but when you started talking about the karma dupe.

Can tell you, none seized, some have a slightly yelllow color, they all performed beautifully in cp..they just don't smell good. :cry:
 
I find the Lush dupes just too expensive, but darned good - tho not all in CP. The Toffee one ended up morphing to a plastic scent so I save that for other applications (MP soap, lotion, etc.)

Lush - some love it, some hate it. I adore Lush scents and as well many of the Daystar dupes I've gotten.

How can you say you're disappointed of you don't even know what the real things smell like? Maybe you're just not a Lush person!
 
I know it sounds funny saying since I've never smelled their fragrances. With all the reviews of their products, I guess I just hoped I would fall in love with them too. Was the toffee from Daystar? Course, you never know, a couple days in cp may change my mind. Didn't like any of them out of the bottle and the jasmine honey isn't bad.
 
Yea, it was Daystar's.

Funny thing about Karma - a lot of people don't like it a first, but with repeated exposure find themselves LOVING it. And some don't.
 
I am not a fan of Lush's actual products, but I do like their scents. I really like every single Lush Dupe I've bought from DS, some better than others but all are nice. I haven't tried the Karma one yet but I'm just not a Patch person... the Rock Star and Alkmaar dupes are my personal favorites!!

I have the powder from Lush as well as the soap and the bubble bar and I LOVE it. My DH does not. I have yet to find a dupe that I love as much as the original. But am having fun searching!
 
The WSP dupe is the worst one- IMHO. I haven't really found a dead on dupe. But I like Daystar's and Oregon Trail's. I think Daystar's is a closer dupe and the OT's is fresher smelling and nicer. Both behave well.
