Comments about Tokyo Milk Dark Parfum, Arsenic, 2 oz:
I ordered this without smelling it first but I am so glad I did. Lately all I have been wearing is Tokyo Milk Dark scents. Arsenic is my favorite, followed by Tainted Love. This perfume isn't a cutesy-girly perfume. It is more dark and sensual. I get compliments on Arsenic and Tainted Love from both men and women all the time. Wish it's staying power would last just a little longer...but am not complaining. I have other more expensive perfumes that don't last as long as Tokyo Milk Dark. Great scent, great price.

Comments about Tokyo Milk Dark Parfum, Arsenic, 2 oz:
I own the Arsenic hand cream and liked the scent, however the perfume smells like a bar at 5 am. It is cloying and slightly sweet and slightly chemical like. I had such high hopes for such a cleverly packaged perfume.

Comments about Tokyo Milk Dark Parfum, Arsenic, 2 oz:
This is my absolute favorite from Tokyo Milk! It's like a green scent with a twist. The green of fennel and bitter wormwood are very prevalent, which lends to the absinthe scent, just without the anise. (If you've ever had real absinthe you know that the anise overrides everything else.)I don't detect vanilla but I assume that's what lends it a touch of sweetness. It's a tad medicinal when you first spray it on but dries beautifully. I always get complimented on it. I wish it lasted longer but for the price I didn't expect it to be very concentrated.

Comments about Tokyo Milk Dark Parfum, Arsenic, 2 oz:
I appreciate that this scent is unique but I must admit I find it dreadful. It starts out so pungent (these perfumes don't last too long thank goodness) that it almost knocks you off your feet. So as far as the notes go:
Absinthe - If you've ever smelled REAL Absinthe (not widely available in the US) you know it smells like mouth wash. It is very accurately prevalent in this scent.
Vanilla salt - I smell the salt but not the slightest hint of vanilla.
Fresh cut greens - they're in there, and spicy ones at that. Perhaps some patchouli as well.
Fennel - I couldn't detect any.
So there you go, mouth wash, salt, spices, and patchouli. Not exactly a sexy combination you want other people to smell on you. Still worth trying if you get the opportunity.
