Midnight Dahlia

Tried this out in a store, spraying some on my arm and I immediately fell in love. Smells like a lovely berry syrup but the notes of cedar and others that lean more masculine stop this from being too sugary and almost make it feel a little fresh? At least not sticky iykwim, something that seems like it can be worn in summer without being overpowering. Definitely gonna be getting a full bottle of this soon! Edit: I now have myself a full bottle >:3 I will say the longevity isn’t the best on the skin but the silage is decent and it does last on clothes. I’m not too fussed abt that stuff tho (depending on the price ofc) more just the smell and I adoreee this, it makes me hungry despite not being a gourmand lol. As it sinks more into the skin it gets pretty woody and patchouli on me with no sweetness at all which I thought I wouldn’t like but I surprisingly do, has a sort of “skin scent” clean quality to it which is nice after the sweet berry smell. Just overall feels like the woods in a way? Anyways! Will be wearing a lot! I think it’s perfect for cold days.

I fell in love with this EDT instantly, it reminded me of Peony & Blush Suede (Jo Malone) for 1/5 of the price - makes sense, since the peony is so present. And, surprisingly, it has good fixation on my skin, which is rare for me. After reading the reviews, I realized that yes, it does also remind me of Sí (Giorgio Armani). But I'm not a fan of Sí and wanted to test the difference. Basically, I find Sí obnoxiously sweet, so the bergamot in Midnight Dahlia brings a much needed balance and makes the fragrance more tolerable and sophisticated. I'm in love with this one!

Midnight Dahlia really reminds me of Giorgio Armani’s older formulas of Si and Si Intense. It’s a syrupy sweet fruity floral with a decent longevity and projection. It’s also very gourmand leaning which I adore and has a strong patchouli in the background. Actually, this one and Vanilla Freesia are the better performing ones from the whole Korres collection. At least the ones catering towards females! I would definitely get a bottle because I personally prefer Korres version of Midnight Dahlia over current Si version that’s selling.

I bought this fragrance on a sale, without testing it, and I was absolutely surprised in a positive way. It is an elegant floral, extremely feminine, sweet without being overbearing (I am prone to headaches, but did not suffer with this one). I hope they don't discontinue the line, I would like to keep using this for as long as I can. PS: Longevity wise, not bad, lasted 6 hours on my skin. Projection is not spectacular, but for me with a sensitive nose, it was not an issue at all.

This is such a dupe for Delina by parfums de marly and a fraction of the price! I get lychee pretty strongly and it dries down into a sweet, delicious floral, fruity almost gourmand but not quite! There’s a slight powderyness that adds a sexy ‘adult’ element. Works well for day or night and is definitely more of a warm weather fragrance but could be worn in cooler weather to. I blind bought this and I’m so glad I did! It’s making me want to try more from Korres!
