atomised
Reduced to mist
Atomised is the British spelling of atomized.
To atomise something is to reduce it to atoms or tiny particles—a liquid atomised into a fine mist, a bomb that atomises its target.
Figuratively, atomised describes things broken into disconnected fragments: an atomised society lacks cohesion, its members isolated from one another.
The spray bottle atomised the perfume into a delicate cloud.
