What does Midnight smell like?
Longevity and sillage are rated good, though those ratings rest on only a few votes. Most voters pick autumn, followed by winter and spring, with summer further behind. Votes spread across daily wear, leisure, evenings and nights out, and it also works at the office.
The opening of mandarin orange zest, cinnamon and apple is fresh, fruity and lightly spicy. In the heart, geranium, orange blossom and rosemary add a floral, slightly herbal balance. In the base, tonka bean, amber and vanilla wood leave a sweet, powdery, woody finish.
