Midnight Dare

I'm so happy this was finally added to the database!!!!! I've had my bottle of this since it came out back in 2012 and its definitely a top favorite of mine!! The blend of raspberry & sandalwood is perfect IMO (almost musky too) and the longevity of this on me is pretty long wich is pretty impressive for a body spray. *This one is wearable year round!!

I don't hate it, but it's definitely not a favorite of mine. It smells like old ladies scented lipstick.

My description of this: sweet raspberry/strawberry cheesecake. The woody notes only make it smell more like creamy, moist cheesecake. Am I mad? Possibly. A very bubbly, cute, young and feminine scent.

It is quite mystifying that a scent with only four notes can smell like so many other things. "Midnight Dare" is well composed. Is it for you and the hubby loving up at midnight, I don't know. I do get the assertive raspberry and sandalwood, but the other nuances, the aloe vera and chamomile, give it that extra push into the unknown. It does last long and has good sillage. I bought the eau de toilette from my sister because it struck a chord with me at first. But those impressions didn't last. Although I did use it when I took it home, at $50TT for 1fl oz I wondered what possessed me to buy it? And do you know I still got at least half bottle. Perhaps better frags have usurped this cute clean fruity floral in my heart. Never did like too much VS because the musk to insight one's primal side overpowers things and can give that earthy skanky body/bloody odour. However, the blend of sandalwood and raspberry is worth a try. Does this mean I am no vixen? Don't think I'm being snarky....if you have it love what you have, I haven't gotten any demeaning comments while wearing it and that's a plus!!

I had a hard time believing that raspberry + sandalwood would = raspberry cheesecake before trying this (like some of the earlier reviews say)... but that's exactly what this smells like! Although it doesn't list the following notes, this is what my nose picks up: - black raspberry - brown sugar crust - creamy vanilla rum This is a delicious and surprising fragrance. Not too sweet, despite being all "bakery" notes - the raspberry is darker, the brown sugar crust is muted, and the vanilla rum rounds it out/brings a bit of depth and musk. On dry down the raspberry softens and the brown sugar + rum notes remain.
