For me, Sex and the City by night smells exactly like that. Anyone expecting something kitschy or playful here is mistaken! The scent is quite bitter and almost masculine at the start; when I first sprayed it, I even detected a very penetrating salad dressing note in my nose. This has happened to me with various fragrances before; it takes about 10 minutes for it to dissipate and for the true scent to unfold. So, I am used to this and was not put off by it. Maybe it comes from the musk. Sex and the City by night is indeed quite musky, which is why I would immediately associate it with Samantha if I had to ;-) In the heart, it becomes surprisingly very floral and feminine on my skin, before arriving at its powdery, soapy base, which, to my delight, is dominated more by patchouli than by amber and tonka. The perfume has a certain cosmopolitan quality with a nostalgic 80s touch, probably triggered by a slight hairspray note that constantly lingers in the background. However, this doesn't bother me at all. It gives me a feeling of elegance and well-groomedness without appearing boring. Surprisingly good.
