Romance in a Stone – Lush bath bomb

Romance in a Stone bath bomb by Lush. Now discontinued. I love the beautiful rose and sweet wild orange scent so much and I love the idea of the poem inside BUT the scent is simply too weak once in the water and the paper poem is never readable even if you fish it out of the water the instant it releases from the bomb. I hope they come out with a product with a similar fragrance. It’s just so romantic….

I was able to read the last line of the poem and the last name of the poet so I looked it up. I think it is beautiful. Written by Algernon Charles Swinburne. Here is the part that was in the bomb….

In the Orchard

The grass is thick and cool, it lets us lie.
Kissed upon either cheek and either eye,
I turn to thee as some green afternoon
Turns toward sunset, and is loth to die;
Ah God, Ah God, that day should be so soon.

Lie closer, lean your face upon my side,
Feel where the dew fell that has hardly dried,
Here how the blood beat that went nigh to swoon;
The pleasure lives there when the sense has died,
Ah God, ah God, that day should be so soon.

    Oh this is also my all time favorite smell of Lush. They really should make a new product with this fragrance, it is a unbelieveable romantic and soft smell. The way you describe the flavor is pretty good. It is really a flowery (especially Orange Blossom and Rose), powdery smell with a hint of orange. For me it is THE Lush fragrance ever. I had always the luck to get a poem, wich I could read. I kept the Poem a long time, because the it smelled a very long time. Unfortunately the water didn’t.

    O_\\ woah, that poem is so beautiful. Too bad the bathbomb kinda sucked. I guess it was only meant to stay dry and never touch the water. I love the song you used for this video.
