If you loved Even Though I Don't Like It, try Yuriko's Aroma

Was sie teilen
Both films are directed by Kōta Yoshida, and they both carry the sexy mood tag, and they sit in Drama / Romance territory. If that's the register that drew you to Even Though I Don't Like It, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Yuriko's Aroma is
A film about repressed urges, though perhaps not repressed enough. An aromatherapist becomes erotically fixated on a teenage boy's sweaty scent while trying to fend off the advances of a client. It's a small film that knows exactly what it is.
