Midnight in Paris by Van Cleef & Arpels was released in 2008. While not the most original fragrance in the world, it still gained a loyal fanbase and even has its own fragrance museum. The scent was familiar but still hit all the right notes: it was romantic, fragile, and came in a gorgeous bottle. Its popularity was due to its unique packaging and incredibly high price.
Review of Midnight in Paris
Midnight in Paris is a masculine woody-oriental fragrance that opens with a fresh citrus note. It also has notes of rosemary, green matcha tea, and imaginary black lily-of-the-valley and black Lapsang Souchong tea. The scent warms as it melds with styrax and tonka bean, which provide a balmy-vanilllic base. The fragrance is not sweet, which makes it an appropriate choice for the sex-oriented.
The scent is very sophisticated and will definitely attract attention from onlookers. The name is a play on a model of Van Cleef and Arpels watch. The perfume bottle is adorned with stars to create a poetic vision of Paris in the night. The fragrance is rich in floral and citrus notes, and contains hints of incense. It is perfect for the sophisticated man on a romantic night out. Midnight in Paris is available in two sizes – 1.3 oz and 2.5 oz.
