Alright. I want to know these. I have some specifics I'd like to find, but please post any and all.
The ones I want:
Honey Bee
Big Blue
Sonic Death Monkey
Blue Skies
Jungle
Olive Branch
Preferably, bath bombs. I'd love to find a place that sells honey bee and big blue dupes cheaper, and to have the others in bath bombs would be amazing. Or if you know a BPAL (or something) dupe, I could use the perfume to make bath bombs.

Ooh, I would love to try any dupes of:
champagne snow showers
demon in the dark
christmas massage bar
I don't care if it's a lotion, perfume, or bath bomb, I just lurve the scents! ;)

I'll second you on the champagne snow showers. If I ever find a dupe of it, I will be sure to let you know.

Someone in another thread here said there was a CSS scent dupe... at beadedhemp, I think? Not sure, as I don't like CSS that much so I didn't pay attention. It might be the discon thread.

Ooh, right, I think I saw that! I think it was on my thread about your favourite must-have items from Lush! Note to self- must find out what that CSS dupe is called, I bet it's heavenly!

I've never actually tried it, but I hear Honey Bath from Bathed & Infused smells very close to Honey Bee/HIWTK.

Gudonya on etsy.com has a pretty descent dupe of Karma for anyone who likes Karma.

I haven't found a bunch, but here are some BPAL scents that are very similar to LUSH scents (though not exact matches):
Maiden--spicy carnation that is almost an exact match to Potion (it's a little greener, but I like that!)
Dana O'Shee--a lot like Snowcake, but a bit more almondy
Neptune--I think this smells exactly like Aqua Marina.
I'm sure there are more, but these are the only ones I can think of off the top of my head.

Does anyone know, which smells more like potion: Skindecent's pink carnation body butter, or Skindazzles' spicy carnation whipped body frosting? I haven't tried either etailer yet, and am trying to decide which to order from... but maybe I'll start a new thread for that so I can see what people think.

Dupe of Potion!?! Awesome! I hate having to get potion lotion all the way from the UK.

I had a similar question. It seems like Villianess soap has a carnation/rose scent that seems like it might be close to potion. Has anyone tried it?

You might try Wilde Ivy's HoneyBee Good. It's not an exact match, but it's a really good substitute as far as I'm concerned.

I think that Burt's Bees' Honey and Shea Butter body butter smells a lot like HIWTK, but in thick lotion form. I use it most mornings since I've run out of Dream Cream. It's really grown on me though, and the light scent stays with you much of the day.

On me at least, I have found that Bpal's "Eat me" smells like the Comforter/YSTW. "Eat me" is a cake and currant scent. But on me, more of the currant comes through.
