Naughty In A Bottle
In my opinion, this is the best scent creation that Lush has put out. It is not complicated at all with its three notes of patchouli, pepper, and vanilla. It is a rather linear scent that doesn’t change much, if at all. However, it is absolutely delicious. The subtly sweet and spicy vanilla over the dirty, green, and earthy patchouli is hypnotic. To me, this is bottled sex appeal. It is green and earthy enough to where it has a bit of a masculine edge but also has that sweet vanilla that gives it a feminine touch as well. I find it completely unisex. The perfume version of LOM is available year round but the body sprays and soaps are fall exclusives. This is understandable because the cool weather is when LOM really shines.

It is a very powerful fragrance so a little goes a long way. I spray once on each forearm and that lasts all day. It projects quite well for the first 4 to 5 hours before retreating closer. But even after it is done with its peak projection I can still smell it on me without having to put my nose to my arms.

The bottle is really nothing special. It’s the same vial style bottles that Lush uses for all of their fragrances which includes a sticker label on the front notating the name of the fragrance. The cap feels like a cheap metal and is pretty flimsy and the atomizer is a cheap plastic one. This is more about the juice inside.

I purchased a 1 oz bottle at my local Lush for about $55. Normally I would say that was a bit steep, but the quality of the fragrance is mind blowing and it will probably last quite a while since I only need about 2 sprays at a time.

This is definitely a love it or hate it fragrance since patchouli is such a polarizing note. Would not recommend blind buying unless you are someone who loves every patchouli scent they put their nose to.

Weirdos Unite!
This is the ultimate weirdo perfume, and with that being said, surprisingly wearable. People only really like this fragrance if they're fragheads or just know what's up. Only two people in my life have ever complimented me on it, which doesn't make me believe it smells bad, it just makes me think those two people had superior taste.

When I worked for Lush, Lord of Misrule was often described as a "grounding" scent, and that makes sense since it's very strong and there's nothing else like it. Patchouli, black pepper, and vanilla seem like such a simple combination, but they come together to form something wild. To me, this fragrance smells like encountering a magical winter forest at golden hour. The forest is mainly pine trees, and the magic is neither good nor evil, it's just mischievously fun.

The EDP of this fragrance is far more creamy and gourmand versus the body spray that almost has a damp mossiness to it. Both are fantastic, but I prefer the EDP.

My favorite patchouli scent… ever?
This is hands down my favorite patchouli perfume and as long as Lush makes this fragrance, I will always have it in my collection.

Patchouli can be a tricky note for some, but in Lord of Misrule, it’s been made into the most beautiful, cozy, sensual, and downright sexy patchouli EVER with the accompaniment of vanilla and pepper. Who would have thought 3 notes could come together and make such an astoundingly gorgeous and complex fragrance? LoM is sweet, slightly spicy, earthy, balsamic, and extremely addicting. This is an unexpected crowd pleaser that gets me compliments, even in the most weird situations lol.

I’m over NYC summer at this point, so I’ve been reaching for my fall fragrances and let me tell you, I can’t wait for autumn and winter just so I can wear the absolute hell out of this. Perfect for daytime to nighttime use, and has a spectacular performance that will leave a hypnotic bubble around you and trail behind you. I’m wearing it to bed tonight and I literally can’t stop sniffing myself.

Lush better not ever think of discontinuing this fragrance or myself, and many others will riot in the street. Try it if you haven’t already. It deserves all the hype that it gets.

Do we really need any other spicy vanillas but this one?
Vanilla is pretty much universally liked. Pepper + Patchouli are a surprisingly great combination with it. Sometimes, patch is too strong for me, but when I tried this yesterday and today, it was really delicious. The freshness of the pepper hits you first, then the patchouli, but the pepper slowly fades away to leave mostly patch and vanilla - like a funky hippie perfume mixed with a gourmand. It's kind of like eating a fresh spicy food on a cloud of marshmallows. The combination together is very cozy and wintery. We see endless versions of these spicy vanillas with "Le Vestiaire - Babycat | Yves Saint Laurent" , Tobacco Vanille Eau de Parfum. This is a dumb thought since we're all perfume lovers and try out more perfumes than most people have ever heard of, but I have to ask, do you really need all of them, or can you just stick to something like Lord of Misrule?

Not the same as the body spray
This is a very strong perfume with woody, rich undertones. The same sweet, fresh, peppery fragrance that is potent in the body spray is overpowered here by the deeper, warmer fragrance beneath. Do not purchase this if you expect it to be the same as the body spray, which I personally prefer. If you like hearty, wintery fragrances with a bit of vanilla and smoke, definitely consider this one.

Patchouli and vanilla bomb. Cozy, reminiscent of winter days by the fireplace. Excellent work by Lush.

This is exactly the patchouli how I like it. Earthy, dark, twisted. Almost honey-like vanilla sweetens things up a quite bit.

Knock you over the head right at the start with patchouli and gently pat you in the back with a warm and spicy vanilla afterwards

The cherry on top for all fall/winter frags. It is creamy, sweet, rugged and smoky. Underrated, this seals the deal for patchouli sweetness

Slightly sweet vanilla and pepper over some dank patchouli. Look no further for a witchy Halloween wear that smells delicious.

It's linear. Notes as you'd expect. Pepper dries down quickly. YET - spectacular scent for the money! Smelled it, bought it right away!
