Lush Cherryish Review: A 2025 Cherried Cocoa Gourmand

Lush Cherryish is not a shy fragrance. Released in 2025 as a unisex body spray and presented as a Lush Club exclusive or limited edition, it takes the edible allure of cherry, cocoa, almond, and white chocolate and turns it into a loud, enveloping cloud. The first impression is less about polite fruit and more about dessert after dark: glossy cherry liqueur, dusty cocoa, marzipan sweetness, and a buttery lactonic finish. At NZ$70 for a 200ml body spray, according to the confirmed Lush NZ listing, Cherryish sits in the playful, accessible zone of Lush's fragrance wardrobe, yet its performance reports suggest a much less modest presence than the format might imply. On Fragrantica, Cherryish holds an overall rating of 3.59 out of 5 from 151 votes, which tells us this is a scent with clear admirers and equally clear dissenters. The listed notes are cherry at the opening; cocoa, almond, apple pulp, and davana in the heart; and white chocolate, butter, and cocoa in the base. Lush's own product page confirms ingredient details such as cocoa extract or absolute, davana oil, almond oil, and cherry, although Lush does not publish a formal top, heart, and base pyramid. The tiered arrangement in this review is therefore an inferred reading of how the materials behave on skin, not an official Lush pyramid. What makes Cherryish compelling is its texture. It is not a transparent cherry mist or a clean fruity body spray. It is creamy, nutty, cocoa-dusted, and faintly boozy in the mind's eye, with a lactonic softness that can feel like melted white chocolate and butter. It is also strong. Reviewers describe it as loud, enveloping, and capable of becoming overpowering, so the pleasure of Cherryish depends on how much dessert you want in the room. Worn with restraint, it is a delicious cold-weather companion; worn too generously, it can become a full banquet.
