Great one!

Midnight Oud is a great combo of roses+oud with bit of sweetness.

Remembers me of Atelier Cologne Rose Anonyme in the drydown.

Not as heavy as Black Oud neither as subtle as C&S Dark Rose (EDC), this fragrance is unisex for sure and has a great lasting power (around 10 hours) with a big sillage and projection.

Not totally unique, but a great choice if you're looking to a good oud+roses combination which does not smell medicinal.

Only after several full wears i could realize there is a animalic note that joins the composition in about 1 hour, which sometimes smells sour in my skin.

Totally unisex in my opinion.

Drop-Dead (Literally) Gorgeous Oriental Floral

My initial reaction upon applying MIDNIGHT OUD was, "Uh-oh, Juliette really does have a gun!" But then something magical transpired. Juliette placed the gun back in her dark purple leather clutch purse and no one knew for the rest of the night that she was a spy, so well camouflaged was she in velvety wafts of a beautiful dark rose perfume.

MIDNIGHT OUD is a drop-dead gorgeous oriental-floral blend, deftly displaying the rose in all its beauty through embellishing it with amber, saffron, and a just a touch of patchouli. And of course the oud, which in this composition is not tarry or rubbery or off-putting at all, although at the outset, before it smoothed out, I thought it might actually be leather!

The longevity of MIDNIGHT OUD is good on my skin, and the sillage fairly big. This is a very fine oriental rose perfume.

Oud-grenade

Midnight Oud does not know what it wants to be. The initial blast is so overwhelmingly masculine, that I freaked out and rinsed my arm with water. That toned it down a bit, but what was that?! Is that oud??? I've never smelled it before. I don't get the urine bit like other reviewers, but the oud to me smells like something I know but can't really put my finger on...exhaust fumes?...scorched plastic?...burnt popcorn?...it's weird. I'm not a fan.

Luckily, it went away within a half an hour and became the ubiquitous "Juliette Has a Gun rose" that is in all of their scents. Midnight Oud is described two separate ways in the Discovery Kit materials: On the card, as "oud, saffron, rose," and inside the little hole where the vial is placed, as "oud, rose, patchouli." Personally, I think it's the latter because I get no saffron, only the rose and a bit of patchouli during the dry down.

The bottom line on this scent is that it's basically Lady Vengeance with an oud nuclear detonation at the beginning.

A deep, dark rose on a medicinal base.

The rose in MO is deep, dark and complex - very modern and quite lovely. Unfortunately, MO opens a bit medicinal, backs off but maintains that medicinal character throughout the wear & becomes a bit metallic even. Even so, I like it, but not enough to own a bottle.

I wish Midnight Poison had MO's rose - now dat would be da bomb!

Winner for the Rose lovers

This is a very delicious scent for any rose lovers. I find it has a wonderful smoky charcoal note under the rose that I really love. I am assuming from reading other reviews that the smokiness is the oud note?

I don't really get any Bergamot on the opening, mostly rose and a bit of saffron. The bottom end is lots of sexy musk and woods.

I love this! Very delicious spiciness!

After a powdery fluff cloud at the beginning, which is somewhat irritating due to name and pyramid, a classic oud rose combination unfolds.

Relentless hairspray-musk attack with fully synthetic oud, undefinable plastic flowers, and a sweet-woody base (Cashmeran?).

Dark rose liqueur with a good dose of patchouli. Slightly (freshly) sweaty. The synthetic notes don’t bother me here; they actually suit the fragrance.
