Sultana

This is a shower gel made as part of the Lush Kitchen community shower gels released in June of 2018.  For a long time, anyone reading the comments on Lush Kitchen Instagram posts could see things requested in popular scents over and over again.  Mark Consantine asked the community to tell him what they wanted and he agreed to choose five scents to make into shower gels. As we all hoped, the often requested scents were made into special shower gels by the Lush Kitchen.  Some of them were remakes of old well-loved shower gels and some of them were brand new shower gel renditions of beloved scents.

This particular shower gel was made with the popular smell of Sultana.  Sultana of Soap, Sultana of Skin, Bewitched bubble bar and Blackberry bath bomb are all products with the stunning Sultana fragrance.  Part of what makes it so wonderful is that this smell is really difficult to explain. It has some smell ingredients in it that are very special and unique. So, we will describe the smell in two ways.  We will talk about the smell from Lady Bubbles perspective and then we will talk about the smell with Lord Fizz's experience in a hope that we can shade the outline of this scent for everyone to understand.

Lady Bubble says the smell of Sultana is like:  a sweet smell, similar to an unripe fruit.  Following that first note, there is the headiness of blossoming flowers. It is a very strong smell that lady bubble suspects would become overpowering and heady if it was smelled too much.  Considering its strength, Lady Bubble says that it is not her favorite smell.  It is too strong and could easily become an unenjoyable smell.

Lord Fizz and Lady Bubble smell similarities but Lord Fizz smells something extra.  Lord Fizz smells the same smell of stone fruit, woody and fruity followed by an additional warm incense smell and a sharpness of alcohol. If you are familiar with the smell of Frankincense, Sultana carries it in its fruity and woody notes. Even though Lord Fizz loves this smell, after smelling it together with Lady Bubble he too had a headache.

However strong the smell of Sultana may be, once you use it the water it lightens up and becomes much more enjoyable.  It is much less intense and the fruity smells seem to open up to be more refreshing.  All of the heady and intoxicating smells wash away leaving only a fresh fruit smell that is simply divine.  It becomes fruity, uplifting and very enjoyable.

As shower gels go, Sultana is a very watery shower gel.  Compared to the other community shower gels this is the most watery. When using it in the shower it makes a lot of bubbles and it will leave you a little dry and wanting for some lotion.  It does, though, leaves a wonderful smell on your skin after you leave the shower that, you can smell on yourself for a long time.

Finally, it should be noted that these community day shower gels are of a high quality and as a result, a lot of the essential oils are used in the recipes.  In the bottle, all of this likes to separate.  If you don't touch the bottle for just a couple of hours, you will see that it formed different layers of oil and soap ingredients.  Though, just a small shake though and it will be back in good condition.
