This is a candidate for a Gaussian Blur Overlay if ever I saw one!

1 - Open image in Photoshop
2 - Bring highlights way down with curves and/or Shadow-Highlight tool
3 - Make duplicate layer
4 - Brighten and wash out duplicate layer (bring black level up)
5 - Add Gaussian Blur to duplicate layer (7-10 radius in this case)
6 - Change duplicate layer to Overlay mode
7 - Adjust opacity to taste

End result looks like this:
