got milk?

got milk?



not the good-for-you stuff from cows longweekendstylers, but the sprayable goodness in a bottle from fantastic perfume purveyor, toyko milk.



cannot. stop. spraying tokyo milk's gin & rosewater 12. like every hour on the hour, day after day for weeks on end now. this has been my sole sensory obsession.




in an almost-too-perfect-it's-heartbreaking simple rectangular bottle with a not quite apothecary-esque-but-better printed brown label, tokyo milk's gin & rosewater 12 is an addicting concoction of citrus zest, rosewood, mimosa and mandarin along with the aforementioned gin and rosewater.


not really a "rose" nose myself, there is something absolutely fresh in a cucumber kinda way that makes the rose note in this blend new and therefore palatable to me. i literally cannot stop spraying it on my wrists despite the fact that gin & rosewater doesn't fade away but merely melts into your skin, leaving a soft, clean, rose mixed with citrus behind. i just want to keep smelling it anew. all day long.


tokyo milk's song in D minor 13 (recalling a lush hawaiian jungle full of exotic gardena) and paper & cotton 17 (smelling EXACTLY of those 2 ingredients, so sublimely delish) as well as the aptly named cherry bomb 5 and let them eat cake 11 also come up on the scent radar, should you be looking for something to rock your senses.
