Definitely pungent florals on the initial spray that mellows into a musky, pleasantly sweet background fragrance. After 10 minutes: Vanilla has started to come out a bit now, with the wood and musk underneath and the smallest bit of fruit. It smells like a generic floral at first, but the jasmine, musk, and saltiness really shine after the first half hour.

Perfumes are often designed with top, middle and base notes, and designed to smell different based on the time after application. sometimes I reread my reviews and I’m so confused by what I’ve written because my opinion has changed so much . I like musks when done right, like the clean musk in Narciso, Delina, or Ex Nihilo's Gold Immortals. The opening made me think of Chloé, only for a few moments I thought it was there, or that I had smell it before. Please consult your doctor before taking any new product, particularly if you are already under medical care.I kept shoving my head down my shirt (classy, I know) trying to get a whiff, and more often than not I didn't. Pomegranate is the first burst of smell then followed by black currant then the body is the jasmine ,i can smell the night jasmine coming through then the musk and peony starts to peek in the dry down. The musk isn't hurting my head here, but it's still not my most favorite note, so Flowerbomb Midnight isn't something I'd purchase for myself. I bought Flowerbomb Midnight when it was super marked down in the wintertime and back then, it gave me that unfortunate black currant “cat piss” smell. Founded in 1988, Maison Margiela is synonymous with unconventional principles, synergising unique heritage with an exploration of deconstruction.

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. this is definitely more of an evening perfume, perfect for a night out when you feel a bit mischiveous! How to use: For instant infatuation, spritz the perfume onto the pulse points (on wrists, behind ears, and on the neck). Crafted with passion, this high-quality fragrance embodies the Dutch fashion house's dedication to excellence and creativity. I hardly remember Flowerbomb, I can guess that 'Midnight' is a little less sweet, with a hint of peony that makes it a bit soapy and flirty.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). just as with the original, the scent itself is not particularly unique, but personally I don’t mind that with this one because sometimes you just want something that’s easy on the nose and generally well-liked.

However, if I try to ignore all of that and just focus on the scent itself, I'm left a bit confused. I don't like black currant at all (almost always smells like cat pee to my nose) and I really wish blackberry had been used instead. The striking design of the perfume bottle is a testament to its artistry - a rich black diamond capturing the essence of midnight, underlining the seductive nature of this exquisite fragrance. I've worn Flowerbomb for years and felt like a change,but over the years, nothing has come close to my fondness for the original FB.The best-selling Flowerbomb is regarded as the ultimate weapon of floral seduction, with the extroverted Spicebomb as its masculine counterpart. It’s not as good as the original or as Ruby Orchid in my opinion, but it’s a decent flanker if nothing revolutionary.
