1. Conceptual Framework
Since the end of the ’70s, several studies have analysed the effective role of language in the creation of brand-names.
Current works suggest that these linguistic features affect how consumers perceive and also respond to various marketing stimuli (i.e. advertising or brand names).
The creation of a good brand name may be accomplished by several devices, concerning the interaction between what the brand “means” as well as what the brand “designates” (Robertson 1989: 66).

1.2. The method The first phase of the work implies
the preliminary individuation of the linguistic dimensions involved in the analysis of the data.
Our questions:1. Which are the linguistic strategies employed in order to show
how Lush Italy “worked” to present his products? 2. What are the effects and from which linguistic levels does the
message reach the consumers?

2.2.1. Morphological level New forms:M’assaggiami [Massage Bar]

Aromantica and Aromantico [Deodorants]are a variation from Italian aromatico, i.e. aromatic,
but they suggest a romantic note!
Belli Capelli [Hair Treatment]
is a rhyme, but a wrong Italian form; correctly it should be bei capelli in the
attributive position of the adjective (note, predicative position: i capelli sono belli)

2.4.2. Semantic LevelIn the English Lush’s web-catalogue
the product name You snap the whip[Body Scrub]
is described as follows: “is a term maybe more familiar to
a sadomasochist, so it fits with the hard-core, pleasure/pain
image”.
The same product in the Italian line is named Magia Nera “Black Magic”: The sexual reference is completely
lost in the Italian context.In this case, only the
“enchanting/magic” effect of the scrubbing product has been
underlined.

2.4.3. Semantic Level The English lemon soap
Bohemian, in relation to
marginalized and impoverished artists or musicians, who “didn't afford a hot bath
very often” corresponds to the Italian
product name Conosci la Terra Dove i Limoni
Profumano? “Knowest thou the land where
the lemon trees bloom?”(Goethe)

3.5 Lush: the point of purchase

Wandering around Lush….
is a “kid-in-a-candy-store” feeling
“HEDONIC CONSUMPTION”

3.5.1 The point of purchase
concept
“cosmetic grocery”, “food retailer” soap is carved up on butchers’blocks,
priced by weight, wrapped in greaseproof paper and sold with “best before” dates;
market-type display of soaps in chunks of different sizes, like a vegetable market, and you can slice off the amount you want

3.5.2. To package or not to package?
No packaging
“we prefer to spend our money on the ingredients”
SENSORY STIMULI

3.6 Lush brand image: associations aroused by
SENSORY DIMENSION: smell, sight, but also hearing and touch, references to taste)
“HEDONIC CONSUMPTION” DIMENSION (Holbrook, Hirschman, 1982)
EXPERIENTIAL DIMENSION, both within and outside the shop (Pine, Gilmore, 1999; Schmitt, 1999)
AMUSEMENT DIMENSION (“brand names should make you smile” the 6th sense: the sense of humour)

3.7 Marketing considerations on the purchasing process
Price is higher than for other brands in the same product category
Impulse purchase (unplanned or spontaneous) and gifts
Sensory dimensions is lost in the website/catalogue selling

4. Conclusions Lush Italy worked hard to create the Italian product names Italian is the most-employed language; Language strategies are very simple but successful; Phonetic effects and morphological structures play with specific
associations and suggest other concepts; The associations stimulated by the brand names come from everyday
life, especially from cinema, songs, common knowledge The phonetic level suggests a sensory experience The semantic level conveys visual associations (images from films,
songs etc.) dreamworld dimension

4. Conclusions
For brand name characteristics and communication strategies, Lush could be defined as an
OXYMORONIC COMPANY Ethical issues vs. sensory dimension
Hand-made, craftsmanlike products vs. internationalization strategies
