What does Midnight Candy smell like?

It opens with iris and carrot, a first stretch that feels fresh, green and slightly earthy. Black violet and Egyptian jasmine absolute follow, turning the scent powdery and floral. The base of osmanthus and vanilla leaves a creamy sweetness, while the spicy and woody tones stay in the background beneath it. The synthetic accord gives the whole a clean, polished finish.

Its profile sits close to Gucci The Virgin Violet and Hermès Hiris, both built around iris and violet.
