What does Instant Crush smell like?

It opens with citrus fruits, ginger and saffron, so spice and freshness arrive together. In the heart, Egyptian jasmine, Moroccan rose and amber add a warm floral note. The base of white musk, sandalwood, vanilla and oakmoss settles into a creamy, woody, sweet finish.

Longevity and sillage are rated strong. Most voters pick autumn and winter, and summer gets the smallest share. Evening and night out are the occasions it suits best. Votes on its character split almost evenly between feminine and masculine, so it works on either. Orodion Orodion and The Dua Brand Crush Hour have a close profile.
