My second favorite LUSH soap! I love the smell of cherry blossoms and the pretty pink and cream colors of this soap.

Mmmm... Lemon, Neroli, Mimosa, Jasmine, Sugar and Cocoa... what is not to like? This is my favourite Lush soap, smell exactly the same as the Sakura (Cherry Blossom) bath ballistic where creamy and powdery notes mixed perfectly with fresh and fizzy notes. It is a bit drying hence the sulfate based detergent it contents but the melange of natural scents is truly endearing. I adore the fact that the name comes from the street that Mary Poppins landed with her grumpy parrot-umbrella. I bet the wind smell like this on that enchanting street...

I bought this after sniffing several other soaps in the LUSH store, so by the time I got to this one my nose was all confused. I figured that sakuras must smell good, so I bought it based on the description and the pretty pink and white colors. I got it home only to realize that I'd wasted my money. The soap isn't moisturizing at all (would NOT recommend this for winter or dry skin) and it smells like plastic and, well, soap. I don't get any floral scent from this whatsoever. To be fair, I've used it several times in the hopes that after a few uses it would start to smell better to me, but no such luck. I guess I'll have to stick to good old Honey I Washed The Kids.

I desperately want this soap to be one of my favorites, but unfortunately, it just isn't. I love this scent in the Sakura bath bomb, but in the bar of soap I had the scent was almost smoky and plasticky. I don't know if it just didn't translate very well to soap, or what, but I wanted to love this the way I love Sakura, but I just don't.
I'm willing to purchase again to see if there was something wrong with the batch I got, but that's the last chance!

Blah :( 17 cherry tree lane soap looks so pretty and girlie, smells medicore - like cheap subtle floral (sorry i'm terrible at describing scents - really terrible :P) soap. Not impressed. And worst of all, it dries me out SO badly. arghhhh i really wish i hadn't bought such a big hunk of this.

I got a sample of this with another larger order I had made, and I'm extremely glad that I now don't have to buy it just to be disappointed. Cherries? What cherries? When I first opened up the wrapping I smelt something vaguely floral and a somewhat plasticky smell that I didn't quite mind. It's creamy to use, and feels rather nice to lather, but dries your hands afterwards just like any soap does. And, after using my sample for a week now, it smells exactly like a plain run-o-the-mill white soap. Which is not to say it's a bad smell, but I don't buy Lush for cheap generic soap scents. There's nothing about it that I can really say justifies the price.

I'm surprised that this product doesn't have a higher rating! This is one of my favorite LUSH scents- a wonderful combination of mimosa, orange and jasmine blossom. A fresh, cheerful scent, this is a great bathtime pick-me-up.

This is a tough one. I'm actually not sure what I think of it. First of all; it's a nice soap with a lovely creamy lather. But the smell...a bit plasticy to me! I really cannot put my finger on it. I'll buy it again just to alternate but it will never be a favourite.

Being overwhelmed in the LUSH store by all of the smells happening, I really thought I loved this soap. I get home, my nose clears out, I try it in the shower.......yuck! Something smells totally snythetic in this soap. I thought it was going to be beautiful cherry blossoms, but all I got was a scent that doesn't smell right, but that I just can't put my finger on. I feel so far I'm not very impressed with LUSH.

I really like this one. It doesn't smell great, but it lathers up really nice and creamy. Your body feels really soft and supple. I'm going to get some more as soon as it finishes!

I got a sample slice of this at LUSH recently and I just got around to using it...I have to say that I'm a little underwhelmed. It's decent as a soap but not more exciting than any other soap I've tried, and certainly not one of LUSH's better soaps. It has a faint floral smell (wish it was stronger) and gives a decent lather but the bar doesn't last long so I think I'll stick to my Figs & Leaves!

Smells amazing. Just like Sakura bath bomb. The bar makes a nice, gentle, milky lather. I only wish the scent would last longer and that the slice was bigger. Kind of small for the price, but worth it if you really love the scent.

I've got this in a BIG sample.I really like the smell,as Sakura and Seanik.
When i washed my hands with it my first thought was the creamy and clean consistens.My hands are mutch more cleaner and softer after this soap.
Did not dry out my skin,as other soaps.The only negative is that the parfume did'nt last.

I really like this soap! It is one of my faves...it may just be the name but I do detect a cherry like smell or maybe its just the mix of florals. I love it and it lathers well!

This soap smells EXACTLY like a brand new pair of running shoes; the resemblance is so close and so uncanny that it's kind of awesome. Demeter should bottle this fragrance and label it "New Shoes." It's a very clean smell, and not an unpleasant one, but still... shoes. I would consider giving bars of this as a wacky gift, but that's it.

This is it- my favourite soap ever!! Im such a fan of Sakura bath ballistics so was overjoyed that Lush has made this soap in the same gorgeous fragrance. The soap itself is creamy and rich and leaves the amazing clean scent on your skin after washing.
I am now going to blow all my money stocking up on these :-)

Such a gorgeous creamy soap! You're first hit with lemon as it wafts to your nostrils, then you're lifted to clouds of the unusual flowery scent, more of a tropical nature. It is the same scent as Lush's Sakura bath bomb or Seanik shampoo bar. It feels as liquid silk on the skin, a perfect spring/summer soap.
