Karma Perfume — Lush

Concentration not stated from Lush.

Scent description (editorial impression)

Straight back in an old head shop is where several wearers land: sweet, syrupy orange oil on pine and a raw, green patchouli, with a thread of incense. It projects hard and stays for hours. Fans call that the point; detractors find it cloying, soapy, or a migraine in a bottle.
