Midnight

This is indeed much like the original LL, but stronger, longer lasting, richer somehow. I find that I reach for this one more often. It is complex, and where I might use the original during day/spring--this one feels more like the night, warmer, more sensual. To me this is heavy on the tonka and anise with musk and myrh coming up right behind with the vetiver. It is sweet, but somehow misses being a gourmand. I like it very much and like to wear it when I want something different; difference is what LL does well as this is a distingishable and unique scent, comforting, but also alien somehow. I would characterize it as not "necessarily" sexy, or comfortable/comforting, or elegant, or sporty, or whatever--just very "different." As a gourmand (anise/vanilla) scent, it is too odd to be an easy scent, so it's not for every day use for me, just when I'm in the mood.

gosh, Rebella, I can't say much more, you expressed the essence of the fragrance so well there. I purchased Midnight from a website, and I am not sure if I have Midnight or Midnight Sun. The fragrance is sweet, deep, velvety, creamy, and a touch lively at the same time. The anis is suave and blends well, everything is blended so superbly -the notes are mingled-every note complementing the other notes! The Jasmine is not distinct, nor the myrrh or vetiver. The tonka beans are distinct, along with the vanilla. And yes, the dry down is a bit smokey-but not at all like smoke! The "woody" part of this fragrance is nice, and never too much like a tree, and never deaden-ing or flattening the fragrance, like other woody notes in other perfumes. Itś a great perfume !

I love this gorgeous bottle, and the fabulous perfume. So rich and potent, and gorgeous liquorice, vetiver, violets, splendid iris, beautiful tonka, vanilla, myrrh, jasmine - all gorgeous! Deep and dark, sensual and unique; I LOVE it!!! Such a perfect name, and bottle! I just love Lolita Lempicka....all of them that I've tried so far. I'd love to have the lot!!!! Oh money!! But what I do have I love completely, and am very very happy with!!! Midnight is one of my very favourite perfumes. Fabulous and superb. Total LOVE!!! Oh Lolita, I love you!!!!

Very much a star anise perfume, but not a one note scent. There are some beautiful florals layered into it. Far too dark for day, a sophisticated evening scent.

Stunning. Bottle and perfume. Gorgeous.
