Black-berried elder. A tree of legend, but also a great way to describe this magical blackcurrant-scented soap. Elderflower infusion, elderberries and olibanum oil create a potent spell for warding off evil (niffs that is!) Respect Your Elders will leave your skin silky soft and beautifully scented. Everything you look at can be turned into a story, so we say cancel storytime and let this become a part of your daily ritual.

I have used a lot of soaps from Lush, and this is by far, by miles apart, the best one. I don't even like fruity, berry scents - and I keep buying this soap over and over again. It's like a more grown up berry scent, I think it's the olibanum in it which gives it this lovely, floral depth...

This smells amazing! I use it to wash my face, which is usually tight and dry after washing with conventional face washes, but after trying to ditch the plastic I thought I'd give hard soap a try and this has been revolutionary. I very rarely actually need moisturiser after this soap. It leaves my skin feeling smooth and soft and just beautiful. I'm down to a tiny sliver but I'm unwilling to get rid of this soap until it has gone completely.

I got this online so didn't smell it first and my first impressions were that I didn't love it. HOWEVER, right after using it I can say it's a different story. It's much more subtle when you use it (as opposed sniffing it right out of the box, which I suppose makes sense) and gives a lovely rich, slightly spicy berry smell. The thing I love most is that it leaves your skin smelling amazing. I'm typing this and I keep sniffing my arms (weirdo).

YET AGAIN! It seems every time I find a product I like at Lush they stop it, this seems to be particularly the case with the more "adult" scents. Tramp, Flying Fox, Respect Your Elders (to name but a few) - it seems harder and harder to find the more subtle, grown up scents. Clearly Lush are more interested in the teen demographic than those of us over 40, in fact I have never in 10 years seen someone over 40 working in my local shop. I shop at Lush less and less now, while the staff are lovely and helpful, they're trained to be on you the minute you're through the door.
