Lovely floral with mixed sweets
The most recent release from Pearlescent Parfums, Midnight Jasmine, is a sweet white floral that really hits the sweet and floral balance well while not being too sharp or powdery. It pairs a lovely jasmine (and supporting rose) with an ensemble of sweet complements—apple, plum, pear, cinnamon, honey, brown sugar, tonka—and a base of amber, musk, and sandalwood. It lands pretty sweet overall, and I think that makes it more of a comforting and resolute fragrance, whereas something less sweet and borderline gourmand-like may seem more formal but more fleeting and (perhaps) sharp.
And as implied, it performs very well, with a dense, rich, covering and seemingly pretty solid longevity, as with the other fragrances in the line. Scent-wise, Midnight Jasmine may be my favorite despite my love of gourmands like Baklava. This is an impressive release, though, and even though it’s a little more floral than what I usually wear, the arrangement of notes and overall product is very pleasing here.
Midnight Jasmine has the same pricing and concentration as the other two offerings in the line (Aquarose and Baklava), $175 for 60ml in extrait de parfum concentration. To those that do not know, Pearlescent is a line launched by Daniel Gallagher of Gallagher Fragrances.
