Minuit et Demi Fragrance Du Bois 2021

With all the hype, I was of course insanely curious and ordered a bottling. Already at the first testing I thought "ok, quiet, as advertised, yes, ok!", but on repeated wear I like him more and more.

Minuit et Demi is a mix of By the Fireplace and Baccarat Rouge, just with less sweet, soft voice. The durability is still very good with me - especially when I test several fragrances on my arm, this one lasts the longest. Briefly, I actually considered whether the scent would move in with me, because so far I've only tested Santal Complet and Brume du Matin from the brand (and I just don't understand the hype). Meaning, especially when compared to the other two perfumes, I'm very much in love. But basically, it's a mix of fragrances that I can layer together at home. The beautiful bottles I wanted too much to move in with me, but for the price definitely not.

I can understand the disappointment if you expected more, but if you don't have your own perfume house to run wild in, but it's just a collaboration, then I would probably design a fragrance that is a safe bet for me personally. Caramel and coffee come out very strong for me. A unisex gourmand that I like a lot.
