Lush have released three sample sets containing four 10 ml perfumes each: I featured them in a recent episode of Love At First Scent. All three are worth checking out, especially Retrospective, as it provides a neat summary of how Mark and Simon Constantine’s style evolved over the years. In the broadcast, I focused particularly on Breath Of God. If anything, the scent is more interesting than it was over a decade ago, when it first emerged. Its contrast of the no-holds-barred leather note with the equally unrestrained aquatic opening seems prescient now, given that so many brands – both mainstream and independent – have taken to playing with extremely broad brush strokes in their compositions. If you’d like to watch the video, here’s a link: Lush 2020 sample sets review.
This is a link to my original review of the Constantines’ unearthly take on meditative states: Lush Breath Of God review. And here’s a link to an article which explores the creation of the scent: the logic behind Breath Of God.
