In search of recognition
It was a sunny January day with frosty sub-zero temperatures. I was looking for a new acquisition for my collection. I tested various fragrances, but none that really excited me at first. Until I was presented with Midnight on Max Street.
A great opening that really got me excited at first. It seemed a little plummy and super wearable in this weather, which the previous speakers have already mentioned. So I bought it, took it with me and added it to my collection.
But the next day, after spraying it on again extensively in the home office, it put a damper on things. Is this really the supposedly great fragrance I was testing? Does it suddenly seem so dark to me?
Unsure what to make of it, I tested it again. On a rainy morning on the way to the office. I sniffed inquisitively as I walked to test how I should find it. Lo and behold, it blended in wonderfully with the weather. This dark, woody-spicy leather accord fitted perfectly into the setting and lived up to its name - even a few hours after midnight, but still dark - in my opinion. A few hours later in the office, however, I was again in a quandary. Does it suit me now? Do I really want to keep using it?
This conflict still plagues me a few days later. It's a very special fragrance that certainly doesn't fit into every setting and isn't suitable for everyone. It will definitely remain in my collection for a while until it receives my approval... or not.
