REVIEWS
Fragrantica - absolute heaven for greeny fans, crushed frsh cut grass with hints of earthy soil and jasmine, absolutely love it, reminds me of a dirtier, rougher elephant from zoologist which I also love , great discovery :)
Fragrantica - Bright, sparkling citrus over delicate green buds with a hint of milky sap. I find this fragrance to be more green than floral despite the jasmine - I don't care for jasmine in general, but I love this fragrance. Here the jasmine grows wild, surrounded by grass and moss with a sprinkling of herbs. I love green fragrances, especially the slightly bitter kind, and while Crushed does not fall into that category it is definitely green. Longevity and sillage are quite good, and I plan on buying a FB immediately. EDIT: I love this so much I purchased two full bottles along with the matching lotion, and will probably buy more in case it's discontinued!
Fragrantica - This is LOVELY! The jasmine and soil tincture combo marry together to give off a licorice-y type of note...The green notes are well balanced enough to not overpower the floral...I'm waiting to see if and when the oak moss shows up...As it drys down, the melding of the contemporary, non-indolic jasmine with the green notes bring on an uplifting, ray of light vibe...I am reminded of a gothic-y, dark, yin/yang scenario; it could be the positive and negative of what funeral flowers, dank earth, and emotions of sweet love and perhaps lingering regrets bring when we are faced with paying our last respects to a loved one...By the same token, the feelings of comforting transcendence from the priceless memories we treasure in times of grief also present themselves in this polarizing fragrance...
Fragrantica - these fragrances are stripped down to a five piece set. Intentionally limited, TOKYOMILK uses a small number of notes to articulate clear, modern-smelling accords. Uncomplicated, coherent thoughts conveyed though smell.
CRUSHED comes in two parts: Part one is a bright sweet green fruit. Part two is a rich white floral, jasmine, and musk drydown. There is nothing "clean," chemical or aspirational about this fragrance. The jasmine in crushed is unapologetic. If you're looking for a dirty white floral, I found it!
Fragrantica - I call it a goth's fragrance wet dream. After smelling every single one, which I do.. I end up smelling like a brothel when I leave, but I cannot help myself. I tried Crushed and was instantly drawn to it. I asked for a sample to take home. I tried it over the next couple of days and totally fell inlove with it. I find this fragrance is like no other, and it last's for a long time. Warning, this fragrance isn't the weak of heart, mind or stomach.
Fragrantica - I really miss this perfume and am still sad they discontinued it. This perfume is the one that got me into fragrances when I was in high school: earthy, green, and jasmine. It smells a lot like a fresh tea. The dry down is so addictive, it mixes so well with my body chemistry that I can’t stop smelling it.
Fragrantica - the juice is lovely. Very green, as others have stated, bitter edges, jasmine by the handful. I wear it more in sping and summer as the heat seems to open it up and it just blooms. It's a clear, intense fragrance, if that makes sense, not murky or dark to me
Fragrantica - Crushed is very... alive, for lack of a better term. These aren't plants in a vase. These are plants that are actually out there in the sun and shade. I've found that after a while there's a hint of plant-y spice, which got me a few compliments when my friend borrowed my scarf.
Fragrantica - This is really lovely, fresh and green! I can almost feel the green grass sap on my hands. It is like I am lying on fresh, green grass beneath a jasmine bush an early summer morning.
