Multifaceted, Dark, and Voluptuous
This is beautifully layered and constantly evolves during wear. I can smell each of the listed notes, but I could swear there's also something animalic here. The plum is ripe but not cloying. Simultaneously unisex and voluptuous. Good but not monstrous sillage, great longevity. An immediate addition to my favorites.

Definitelt smoky, and stinging someway.
I think the mix ambrette/pepper makes it stingy. Definitely a smoky scent, very gloomy, but not intossicating as some others I've tried (see: Feu Follett, which is pure smoke). The patchouli is well blended with incense, not prevailing. I get the littlest hint of plume and cloves, the incense is definitely more present. Something something in between a "gothic" interpreted as leather black clothes and something church-like, but reverse. Weird to tell, weird to smell. Maybe still a little too stingy for me tho!

Gothy. Smoky. Sexy.
This is for edgy folks. It’s balsamic vinegar made liquid smoke. This is not blind-buy safe, nor is it mass appealing but it’s damn good. If you like “By the Fireplace” or Nest’s “Black Tulip” in the subcategory of fruitchuli’ (aka fruit patchouli) scent DNAs, you might like their more badass cousin.

This is unisex and VERY smoky, in like a leather jacket and a cigarette kinda way. There’s a stinky incense with cloves and pink pepper. If the candied plum and ambrette were not present, Nocturn would be unwearable. It’s also very perfume-y. I think this would shine on deep autumnal nights on skin.

This house is new to me, but what I’ve learned about MdA’s fragrances is that they truly excel at gothy/alt and dark scents that yearn for the coldest or darkest times of the year. Whereas most cold-weather fragrances fall under the warm/spicy olfactory family, and Nocturn contains clove, which is a warming spice, it’s by no means warm.

Nocturn is about as comforting as riding a motorcycle through a cemetery under a new moon-darkened skies. Sample first. I think 10 mil for $22 is a good cold weather night scent for me. Very witchy.

Ripe plum, dark roses, spices, and smoke. Deliciously sexy goth spiced rose smoke and ripe leathery plum. I am absolutely seduced by this.

It was described to me as goth girl laundry and dammit if that doesn't nail it.
