From the brand - "CRUSH is our fragrance inspired by the addiction to rose macarons. The crunchy shell of these sweet treats hides a melting heart, ready to intoxicate the taste buds with their subtle flavours. Rose macarons are an explosion of textures and aromas just waiting to resonate, a symphony of sweetness ready to pour out. CRUSH is our delicious reimagining of rose macarons, a fragrance that allows you to forget about time and invites you to daydream. CRUSH is a perfume that offers a moment of pure delicacy."
Fragrantica - "the scent is mesmerising and absolutely addictive ? and the performance chefs kiss"
Fragrantica - "It’s definitely a soft, soapy, creamy, blush pink rose all the way through. There is a yummy, nutty gourmand note as well. It’s not heavy or cloying and can be worn all seasons, except maybe the high heat of Summer. So pretty. A tiny bit fruity... Just beautiful!"
Fragrantica - "Very sweet almond for the first fifteen minutes and then it's a delicious rosy vanilla base, somewhat similar to the structure and base notes of Bake minus the citrus. Much more subtle and better balanced than stuff like roses vanille and has excellent projection and longevity. Still sniffing obsessively after 6 hours. I will be buying as soon as it's released as a fun effervescent girly gourmand."
Fragrantica - "This is amazing! I smelled it today and first I wanna say it lasts on skin! Opens almond, but not super strong. I don't get the litchi super strong, it's definitely well blended. The rose comes in and after about 15 mins and blends beautifully with the vanilla. Dries down almost as a lactonic rose vanilla. "
