The review
On paper, Crushed is a reasonable bet if you want Instant Crush for less.
Perfume Parlour sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Instant Crush's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.
Strength: extrait, among the most concentrated formats a dupe comes in.
At $89 per 100ml it costs 47% less than Instant Crush — the 4th cheapest of 7 twins we can price.
Some wearers dispute how close it gets — the match is the seller's claim, so read the votes before you buy.
Reviewed on paper: from the notes and strength Perfume Parlour publishes, the price per 100ml, and how firmly the match is claimed. How it really smells on skin is what the votes below are for.
What it's built to smell like
The original opens on aldehydes, saffron and ginger, turns to rose, jasmine and patchouli, and settles into vanilla, musk and woody notes. That is the brief Crushed is working from.
Top
- aldehydes
- saffron
- ginger
Heart
- rose
- jasmine
- patchouli
Base
- vanilla
- musk
- woody notes
For the one who wants an easy, ambery-sweet crowd-pleaser blending spiced citrus, rose and creamy vanilla into a comforting, endlessly wearable signature.
Some fans dispute how close this one gets — it is listed against the original by its seller.
