`NOTICE OF OPPOSITION
`
`Cosmetic Warriors Limited, a corporation duly organized and existing under the laws of
`
`the United Kingdom, with a mailing address of 29 High Street Poole, Dorset BH15 1AB, United
`
`Kingdom, (“Opposer”), believes that it will be damaged by the registration of the SCENT LUSH
`
`mark shown in Application Serial No. 88/744,785, filed January 2, 2020 by DeSean Robinson, an
`
`individual with a mailing address of 400 Moss Hill Drive, Arlington, Texas 76018 (“Applicant”),
`
`and hereby opposes registration of the mark. The grounds for opposition are as follows:
`
`1.
`
`By the application herein opposed, Application Serial No. 88/744,785 (the
`
`“Application”), Applicant is seeking to obtain under the provisions of the Trademark Act of 1946,
`
`as amended, registration on the Principal Register of the trademark SCENT LUSH (“Applicant’s
`
`Mark”) for use in connection with “eau de perfume” in International Class 3 (“Applicant’s
`
`Goods”).
`
`2.
`
`The Application was filed under § 1(a) of the Trademark Act on January 2, 2020.
`
`Applicant’s Mark published for opposition on November 17, 2020. This Notice of Opposition is
`
`timely filed.
`
`

`

`3.
`
`Opposer is the owner of the following U.S. Trademark Registrations relating to its
`
`LUSH brand:
`
`LUSH, U.S. Reg. No. 2,853,483, used in connection with bringing together,
`for the benefit of others, of a variety of goods enabling customers to conveniently
`view and purchase those goods in a retail cosmetics and toiletries store; the bringing
`together, for the benefit of others, of a variety of goods, enabling customers to
`conveniently view and purchase those goods from a mail order catalogue, or from
`an Internet web site, specializing in the marketing of cosmetics and toiletries, in
`International Class 35. Said registration was registered on the Principal Register
`on June 15, 2004 and was based on a foreign registration filed in the United
`Kingdom on August 14, 2002, which is a date prior to the date of filing of
`Applicants’ application.
`
`LUSH, U.S. Reg. No. 3,001,303, used in connection with catalogues listing
`and illustrating cosmetics and toiletry products; printed product lists featuring
`cosmetic products and toiletry products; printed point of sales display in the nature
`of signs and display boards; and paper bags, in International Class 16. Said
`registration registered on the Principal Register on September 27, 2005 and was
`based on an application filed in the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office on April 27,
`2004 alleging a date of first use of May 1996, which is a date prior to the date of
`filing of Applicants’ application.
`
`LUSH, U.S. Reg. No. 2,282,428, used in connection with perfumes; non-
`medicated toilet and cosmetic preparations, namely, lotions, powders and creams
`for use on the skin, dentifrices, cosmetic depilatory creams, personal deodorants,
`preparations for the care of the hair, shampoos, soaps, and essential oils for personal
`use, in International Class 3. Said registration was registered on the Principal
`Register on October 5, 1999 and was based on an application filed in the U.S. Patent
`and Trademark Office on February 25, 1997 alleging a date of first use of April 10,
`1995, which is a date prior to the date of filing of Applicants’ application. This
`registration is also incontestable.

`non-medicated toilet and cosmetic preparations, namely lotions, powders and
`creams for use on the skin; preparations for cleansing and care of the skin; bath oils

`which is a date prior to the date of filing of Applicants’ application.

`October 25, 2005 and was based on an application filed in the U.S. Patent and
`Trademark Office on April 27, 2004 alleging a date of first use of April 10, 1995,
`which is a date prior to the date of filing of Applicants’ application.
`
`LUSH, U.S. Reg. No. 3,987,808, for hair salon services, namely, hair
`styling, coloring, washing, shampooing, conditioning, applying hair masks, head
`massages, and scalp massages; beauty salon therapy services, namely, cleansing of
`the skin, applying face masks, applying back pack masks, skin peelers, steam

`which is a date prior to the date of filing of Applicants’ application.
`
`LUSH, U.S. Reg. No. 4,118,438, for cosmetics in International Class 3.
`Said registration registered on the Principal Register on October 25, 2005 and was
`based on an application filed in the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office on March 27,
`2012 alleging a date of first use of April 10, 1995, which is a date prior to the date
`of filing of Applicants’ application.
`
`
`
`True and correct printouts from the USPTO’s Trademark Status and Document Retrieval (TSDR)
`
`database corresponding to each of the above LUSH registrations are attached hereto as Exhibits
`
`A – G.
`
`
`
` 3
`
`

`

`4.
`
`Opposer’s registered marks are valid and subsisting and are prima facie or
`
`conclusive evidence of Opposer’s exclusive right to use the LUSH Mark in commerce on the goods
`
`and services specified in each registration.
`
`5.
`
`Since at least as early as April 10, 1995, Opposer has used its LUSH Mark in the
`
`United States. Said use has been continuous since the date of first use. None of Opposer’s registered
`
`trademark rights have been abandoned.
`
`6.
`
`In addition to Opposer’s LUSH registrations identified above, Opposer also owns
`
`common law rights in the trademark LUSH in connection with various goods and services,
`
`including but not limited to cosmetic products, including perfume, body spray, and solid perfume,
`
`bath and beauty products, and related goods and services. Opposer’s rights under the LUSH Marks
`
`further extend to providing retail store services featuring the aforementioned types of products.
`
`The first of said uses in commerce occurred long before the Application’s filing date of January 2,
`
`2020, and long before the asserted first use of Applicant’s Goods on January 1, 2017.
`
`7.
`
`Opposer offers a wide variety of cosmetics, personal care products, retail services
`
`and related services under its LUSH Marks, and uses LUSH as a house mark and store brand.
`
`8.
`
`Opposer’s goods and services are offered, sold, and provided through its
`
`approximately 900 retail locations worldwide. Opposer operates these stores itself, or through
`
`entities licensed to use the LUSH Marks. Opposer operates these shops under the name and
`
`trademark LUSH and LUSH FRESH HANDMADE COSMETICS. The LUSH retail stores have
`
`been in continuous operation since the mid-1990s and have operated in the United States
`
`continuously since 2002. Since at least as early as 2010, Opposer has displayed its LUSH and
`
`LUSH FRESH HANDMADE COSMETICS marks on its products and above its retail stores.
`
`
`
` 4
`
`

`

`9.
`
`Opposer and its licensees also operate various e-commerce websites, including
`
`www.lush.com and www.lushusa.com, where LUSH products and services are promoted and sold
`
`to consumers around the world, including in the United States.
`
`10.
`
`Opposer’s LUSH Mark is well known, if not famous, in the United States and
`
`around the world. Hundreds of millions of dollars of LUSH products and services have been sold
`
`in the United States.
`
`11.
`
`Opposer’s LUSH brand has been the subject of thousands of unsolicited media
`
`mentions, including on television, radio, print media, and online. Millions of dollars have been
`
`spent promoting the LUSH Mark in the United States through a variety of channels.
`
`12.
`
`Opposer’s LUSH brand and products and services enjoy a loyal customer base and
`
`fervent online following. Indeed, several online forums and communities exist where fans of the
`
`LUSH brand interact with each other based on their admiration for the brand and its products and
`
`services.
`
`13.
`
`Opposer’s LUSH Mark points directly and uniquely to Opposer and has become so
`
`well-known with consumers that LUSH serves as the identity of Opposer, many of whom do not
`
`know Opposer’s corporate name, Cosmetic Warriors Limited, and know Opposer simply as LUSH.
`
`14.
`
`Opposer has priority with respect to the SCENT LUSH mark at issue in this
`
`opposition. Opposer has had priority of use of the LUSH Mark long before the filing date and
`
`asserted first use date of the Application.
`
`15.
`
`Opposer’s LUSH Mark is extremely strong and distinctive, if not famous, and has
`
`been since prior to any first use of Applicant’s Mark and prior to the filing date of the Application.
`
`16.
`
`Applicant’s Mark is confusingly similar to Opposer’s LUSH Mark.
`
`
`
` 5
`
`

`

`17.
`
`Opposer’s LUSH Mark is entirely reproduced within Applicant’s Mark. LUSH is
`
`also the dominant part of both parties’ marks, as the wording SCENT is an unregistrable
`
`component of Applicant’s Mark and is thus disclaimed from the Application. Consequently,
`
`Applicant’s Mark retains a confusingly similar commercial impression to Opposer’s LUSH Mark.
`
`18.
`
`Opposer uses its LUSH Mark in conjunction with products that are identical to or
`
`otherwise closely related to those listed in the Application. By way of example, Opposer sells
`
`cosmetics and personal care products, including, specifically, perfumes, body sprays, and solid
`
`perfumes. These are the same as Applicant’s Goods. Opposer also offers a wide variety of
`
`cosmetics and personal care products which are highly related to Applicant’s goods and often sold
`
`in the same channels of trade by the same parties who offer the types of goods set forth in the
`
`Application.
`
`19.
`
`Applicant’s Mark is for use in connection with eau de perfumes with no restrictions
`
`as to the channels of trade and promotion through which those products are offered and sold.
`
`Accordingly, Applicant’s Goods are assumed to occupy all ordinary channels of trade and
`
`promotion for such goods. Due to the overlapping and highly related nature of the goods and
`
`services provided by the respective parties, Applicant is expected to use channels of trade and
`
`promotion that overlap with those currently used by Opposer, including but not limited to brick
`
`and mortar stores, the Internet, and social media.
`
`20.
`
`Applicant’s Mark has an overall confusingly similar commercial impression as
`
`Opposer’s LUSH Mark. Applicant’s Goods are identical or closely related to those on which
`
`Opposer has long used its renowned LUSH Mark. Applicant’s Mark falsely suggests a connection
`
`between Opposer and Applicant that does not exist.
`
`
`
` 6
`
`

`

`21.
`
`Due to the highly similar nature of Applicant’s Mark and Opposer’s LUSH Mark
`
`and the identical and related nature of the involved goods and services provided by the respective
`
`parties, consumers and potential consumers are likely to believe that Applicant’s Goods originate
`
`from Opposer, resulting in a likelihood of confusion in the marketplace and damage to Opposer.
`
`22.
`
`The use and registration Applicant’s Mark for Applicant’s Goods is likely to cause
`
`confusion or to cause mistake or deception among consumers and potential consumers with
`
`Opposer’s previously used and registered LUSH Mark, again resulting in damage to Opposer.
`
`23.
`
`Because of the overlapping and related nature of the involved goods and services
`
`and the confusingly similar nature of the marks in overall appearance, sound, meaning, and
`
`commercial impression, the use and registration of Applicant’s Mark is likely to cause confusion,
`
`mistake, or deception that Applicant’s Goods are those of Opposer, or are otherwise endorsed,
`
`sponsored, or approved by Opposer causing further damage to Opposer.
`
`24.
`
`If Applicant is granted registration of the mark herein opposed, it would thereby
`
`obtain at least a prima facie exclusive right to use Applicant’s Mark. Such registration would be a
`
`source of further damage and injury to Opposer, and could bar Opposer from obtaining future
`
`registrations relating to its LUSH Mark.
`
`25.
`
`Registration of the mark shown in Application Serial No. 88/744,785 will result in
`
`damage to Opposer under the provisions of § 2(d) of the U.S. Trademark Act, consistent with the
`
`allegations stated above.
`
`WHEREFORE, Opposer asks that its opposition to Applicant’s Application be sustained
`
`and that the registration of Applicant’s Mark set forth therein be refused. Please direct all
`
`correspondence to the attention of:
