What does Midnight Spirit smell like?

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate, so it stays fairly close to the skin without filling a room. Most voters pick spring and fall, and it is worn mainly for leisure and business. More voters call it masculine than feminine, though a fair share see it as feminine.

The top is bright and green, with cardamom, grapefruit, lemon and tarragon. Red wine liqueur and oud move into the heart, adding a sweet, smoky body. The base rests on woody, resinous vetiver, Virginia cedar and labdanum, softened by hay and violet leaf.
