I bought a soap the other day that smells so good, I keep walking into the bathroom to sniff it.
It bills itself as a lavender soap but the fragrance is really the scent of the middle drawer in my desk when I was 9. Pencil shavings, postage stamp glue, rubber bands, library paste. Neglected homework.
Who makes soap that smells so academic? It's Lush's Ohh La La. Reading through the ingredient list, I see no pencil shavings, but I do find thyme (my favorite herb), rosemary and lots of lavender. Plus the grape juice that makes it run vivid fuschia when wet.
Sorry babe but Rockstar is the bestest soap you can get from Lush right now...
That reminds me of scented erasers sold at my primary school's bookshop. Kept on losing it (deliberately) and buying it (deliberately) just to sniff it.
I checked out the Lush site extensively and drooled over the Lush line of soaps and deodorants. Noting the price, I called Mom and told her to nip a bit off your soap to bring it back for me. Heehee.
Postage stamp glue????
My fave glue was either the clag glue (white goopy stuff with a brush) or Perkins Paste (white chalky stuff in a pink tub with an in built spatchula)
my fave lush soap is alkmaar.. it's a milky jasmine scent that makes my mouth water. love it!
Now we are into SUMI(charcoal) soap and shampoo.
