About this deal

I was excited to smell this because I love jasmine and musk together, but the black currant completely takes over this fragrance. The opening made me think of Chloé, only for a few moments I thought it was there, or that I had smell it before. After the initial dark berry blast, on me that softens down into more floral/vanilla, with just a hint of the dark berry.

The black currant and musk stand out here, it’s not super floral or sweet but instead a little tangy. I think if someone likes the typical Mon Paris/LVEB/Flowerbomb fruitchulis they should like this, too, since it clearly belongs in that family, even though there is apparently no patchouli here (I swear I smell it but it's not horrible, which is surprising lol). I thought a few of ya'll had lost your damn minds comparing this to NR For Her EDT, but if you're not a major musk fan, I can see where you thought that. For example, some top note citrus scents smell stronger immediately upon application, while a lavender middle note may be sensed after some time from application as the top note evaporates.com perfumes magazine - All Rights Reserved - do not copy anything without prior written permission. The pomegranate isn't really showing up, but it has a cleanness to it as well like crisp fruits (then again, I seem to be fortunate in that I never smell "cat pee" from blackcurrant). It starts off sweet, like Flowerbomb and all its' flankers, but it ends up as a wonderful floral musky fragrance after a few hours. The next chapter in the Flowerbomb story, this Eau de Parfum is a spellbinding and captivating scent designed to perfectly complement the modern day woman and her evening escapades. When the musk came back out to play, it was rounded off smoothly with the creamy, indulgent vanilla.

It's somehow not as cheap smelling as the original FB and I really enjoy the floral heart it has as well, even if I cannot tell overtly that it's jasmine. To my surprise Midnight was the best perfume I smelled out of the 20+ I sampled while I was there, including Nectar. To me, not as "fruity" on myself as others seem to find it, and struggle to pinpoint pomegranate or blackcurrant.

Stick some seeds together with fertilized soil, huck it into an untended dirt strip in a parking lot or along the highway and let the flowers do their thing. The way the blackcurrant and peony (but smells like a full-bodied rose to me) merges with a warm musk skin-scent has a decidedly 'middle of the night' vibe. after finishing two bottles of the original flowerbomb, I felt like changing things up a bit and turned to this one. This bears an amazing similarity to Escada’s Rockin’ Rio (I should know because I went through 3 bottles of it and it used to be my favorite fragrance way over a decade ago). I find the opening to this one kinda harsh, it smells more like licorice to me than any other Flowerbomb.

I heard so many good things about Nectar but not equal enthusiasm for Midnight so I was definitely excited to try the Nectar. It’s not as good as the original or as Ruby Orchid in my opinion, but it’s a decent flanker if nothing revolutionary. This is the first Flowerbomb flanker in a long while that doesn't smell like a complete replicate of the original.Note: The pros and cons listed on this page have been generated using the artificial intelligence system, which analyzes product reviews submitted by our members. Upon first spray, I was overwhelmed with musk, but it quickly settled into the dark juicy fruits that attracted me to this.
