Midnight Bloom

this is a known dupe for Cloud, so if you want something along the Cloud scent profile, let me list their details and from then on it depends on your preference! > Cloud the original is a fluffy musky fragrance carried by a creamy coconut note. it lasts for about 4-5 hours. > Cloud 2.0 is heavier on the vanilla but you still get the creamy coconut. some people get a woody vanilla base. lasts about 5-6 hours. > Midnight Bloom is Cloud 2.0 with vanilla, no coconut and a more noticeable woody base. it lasts for about 5-6 hours. personally, i find coconut scents to be overwhelming, and i love the amount of woodiness that Midnight Bloom carries so it is easily my favorite. i also find that i prefer the intensity level that it has. the best part for me is being able to throw it into my bag to refresh throughout the day. and the bottle is my favorite, i love the color! Midnight Bloom layers beautifully with Cloud Musk by Mixbar. today i layered it with a cocoa/shea butter body cream and 2 sprays of Cloud Musk (Mixbar) with my Midnight Bloom and i just smell too good right now i am absolutely obsessed with it. honestly, it's giving grey sweats - teenage dream - sneaking out to see a boy - purple led lights - the excitement of experiencing intimacy for the first time. it's giving me my rushed sense of adolescence back.

Midnight Bloom was literally the perfume that changed my taste in fragrances. Before this, I was such a gourmand teenage girl! I wanted everything to smell like vanilla, desserts, candy... you get it. Then I found this, and somehow it made me fall completely in love with something totally different. Woody, floral, mysterious... and I was OBSESSED. It honestly felt like a little turning point for me, like I was slowly growing out of my sweet teenage perfume phase. Back in high school, I spray this every chance I get. I sprayed it so much that I'm pretty sure my entire classroom smelled like Midnight Bloom, and people would actually ask me what perfume I was wearing. It's one of those scents that's just so memorable. To me, this is such a sexy, mature fragrance. It definitely has more of a nighttime vibe (it kind of reminds me of Into the Night BBW in that sense). The woody notes and white florals blend together so beautifully, creating something that's elegant and alluring. It's completely different from what I usually gravitate toward, yet somehow it became one of my favorites from VS!

My hands-down favorite scent among Victoria's Secret's core range. It's a sensual, cozy, creamy, fluffy, woody scent that's perfect for evening wear. Definitely the most unisex of the VS line (leaning slightly more feminine.) It pairs really well with any of the "BR540-like" fragrances as it's in the same sort of scent family. A few comparisons: AG's Cloud - Midnight Bloom is a little less sweet, doesn't have the coconut note and is more woody and musky. It reads a bit more unisex, mature and sexier to me than Cloud. B&BW's In The Stars - Midnight Bloom is less musky, more creamy and sweeter. In The Stars is even more unisex to me. Sol de Janeiro Cheirosa 68 - Midnight Bloom is less fruity/sweet and is more woody, musky and dense. 68 is softer and brighter to me. I *really* hope VS eventually releases an EDP version of this. Some people compare this to Tease Creme Cloud but I'm nearly anosmic to that and find Midnight Bloom more potent and memorable.

i've heard from a youtuber that this smells exactly like Ariana Grande - Cloud, which was my motivator to purchase this fragrance. on me, this is the creamy vanilla-y baby sister of Baccarat Rouge 540. i guess it does smell nice, but i can't seem to be able to get into it. i'm not fond of detectable vanilla scents, i like it when vanilla is there to give sweetness to the fragrance without being noticeable. in this one, the first note i noticed was the vanilla. i was also very impressed with BR450 when i first got it but got bored after my 2nd wear, even though i didn't ever come across a lot of people wearing it. i just grew out of it too quickly. i do think that this would be interesting and even "sexy" if i was in high school and sneaked out of the house to meet a boy or something. i know it would make me feel like femme fatale -i guess fille fatale would be more suitable in this scenario haha !

I wore this when I was sixteen/seventeen. It lasted me so long! And this was my go to, so she'd be in my school bag so I could reapply. I'm sure. I remember this scent so vividly. I even catch whiffs of it anytime I go for a wander in the city... Oddly enough. Remember her so vividly. Creamy, warm, yet with a touch of floral sweetness. Comforting, to me anyway. Maybe a bit too seductive for a teen but as a teen I experimented and I loved this. It was probably a freebie, can't lie with that. I recommend. I'd love to get this again, and try more scents from Victoria secrets. This scent was perfect, and thinking about it, like I can really properly smell it has my mouth watering BAHAHAHA. Yes! She was that good. Not gourmand though! A perfect balance of something warm and edible and fresh and sweet. Kudos.
