Bottles of the much-loved Snow Fairy body mist have already been spotted on shelves across the UK and beauty lovers can't believe their luck.
Normally reserved for the wintry build-up to December, the sweet and sugary scent has landed smack bang in the middle of summer.
But there's a twist as this year's version comes with a magical new makeover.
Lush has paired the candyfloss-scented Snow Fairy with its fresh, citrusy Super Milk spray.

Nicknamed Super Fairy, it's been described by the brand as being like 'sweet and salty popcorn' or 'pineapple on pizza'.
The dreamy duo now comes as a body lotion, shower gel and bath bomb, with prices ranging from £6 to £27 depending on the size you pick.
If you're not ready for the crossover, the original Snow Fairy scent is also available solo, in everything from glitter body mist to shower powder.
You can bag a shimmering Snow Fairy Glitter Mist for £18, a mini version for £9, and even a bubble bar on a stick for £8 to keep the sparkle going right through to Christmas.

But there may be method to this madness.
Many savvy shoppers prefer to shop in advance to help ease the cost of the expensive festive season.
Money guru Lynn Beattie, AKA Mrs Mummypenny, says it's a smart move.
'Spreading the cost of Christmas throughout the year is a great way to enjoy the festive season without the stress,' she said.

And it seems Brits are listening. Studies show over a third of adults have already started budgeting for Christmas, despite it still being six months away.
With retailers pulling out the baubles in June and iconic scents like Snow Fairy flying off shelves, now is the perfect time to stock up and store away.
