Lush is known for its innovative approach to marketing, which heavily relies on sensation and sensory
experiences to engage customers. By appealing to multiple senses, Lush creates a unique and
immersive environment that encourages customers to process information in a more memorable and
engaging way.
By combining sensory experiences with effective information processing techniques, Lush creates a
unique and engaging environment that encourages customers to explore their products and make
informed choices.
is to create unique and memorable experiences for consumers that help establish an emotional
connection between them and the brand. By drawing the attention of the audience and awakening
their senses, a brand can become a pleasant and happy memory for the consumer. It is defined as
the application of stimuli and elements that enable the consumer to experience them through his
senses. In this way, it is also possible to create a connection between consumers and brands
(Lindstrom, 2006). Sensory marketing is directly related to 4 fundamental concepts: sensory
relationships, sensory experiences, imagination, and brand vision (Gómez R. & Mejía, 2013): • The
first is related to customer service, which must be the bearer of emotions, emotional dialogues that
stimulate the customer. • The second is related to the approach and experience manifested by the
brand in relation to the customer. It is from these experiences that occurs the stimulation of the
consumer of a permanent unfolding of imagination. • The sensorial imagination comes from the
previous phase because it is the one that allows establishing connections between the consumer and
the brand, stimulating his will to buy. • Finally, the brand vision is responsible for the set of stimuli to
which the customer is subjected from the moment he enters the shop until the moment he leaves.
The idea is to use a sensorial message (i.e. a song that brings us good sensations) to attract the
customers and make them think it was exclusively for them. This is important when they are creating
a particular product or service to get the consumer to always think of the brand when it comes to
acquiring something they need (Marques, 2018).
Lush's consumers are influenced by a combination of rational consumption appeal and hedonic
consumption experiences.
Rational Consumption Appeal: Lush's messaging of ethical, organic, fresh, and healthy products
appeals to consumers who prioritize sustainability, natural ingredients, and supporting ethical
practices. These consumers are driven by the desire to make responsible choices and align their
values with their purchasing decisions.
Hedonic Consumption and Multi-Sensory Experience: Lush stores provide a unique and pleasurable
shopping experience. The stores are designed to engage multiple senses, with vibrant colors, enticing
scents, and interactive product displays. This immersive environment creates a sense of enjoyment
and indulgence, making the shopping experience more than just a transaction. Consumers are drawn
to the sensory stimulation and the opportunity to pamper themselves.
In summary, Lush consumers' decisions are influenced by both rational factors, such as the appeal of
ethical and healthy products, and hedonic factors, such as the pleasurable multi-sensory experience
in the stores. These factors work together to create a compelling and holistic consumer experience.
