OrientalWhat does Crush (Eau de Parfum) smell like?
Voters rate its longevity and sillage as good, though the vote count is small, so these figures are not conclusive. No clear lean towards any season or occasion shows up.
The bright citrus and spice opening gives way to a rose and ylang-ylang heart sweetened by red berries. Patchouli, cedarwood and musk settle underneath, leaving a powdery, lightly oriental base. Overall it reads fresh and sugary, a fruity floral with a noticeable synthetic edge. Chanel Coco Mademoiselle (Eau de Parfum) and Jean Paul Gaultier Ma Dame (Eau de Parfum) have a close profile.
