You know, I don’t like that Kurohime never found out about the potion. Yeah, at this point, it’s not the potion anymore, but it doesn’t seem right. At least Rin knows about it and so does Mukai and they didn’t take the potion, but I don’t think anyone else does. I guess Ruruka knows about it if she counts. I don’t think Toudou gave the potion to Yanagi, but I might be wrong there. It seems like everyone else is doing their own thing now. Hopefully Kurohime finds out at some point though, regardless, I’ll still support the ship since it’s good and it’s going to be poly.
Kurohime was indeed dosed, way back when, while Rin artfully evaded the dosing not once but twice. Rin and Mukai do know about the love poison, and the latter actually took it knowingly (while already falling for Toudou, so it's hard to say how much of an actual effect was had). Yanagi meanwhile has indeed not tasted it at all, as you surmised; she's just an unashamedly forward kind of gal. This series being more thoughtful than one might think, I'd be surprised if Kurohime previously being slipped the love drug doesn't get brought up, possibly as they go through the polyam negotiations.
Two things I have to note upon a quick reread of things:
A: Toudou's character development. Way back in chapter 9 she was ecstatic to have girls fighting over her despite being very much in the closet not into yuri at the time. Now it isn't just people giving her attention it's people she cares about in turmoil so her reaction is hell no.
B: Rin's immediate laser focus on righting things, initially from the attitude of 'Who TF was making my girl cry?' Like, we know from cops and robbers that she's protective in that way, but still nice to see.
