Flowerbomb Midnight is a creamier rounder version of the original Flowerbomb from 2005. It has a jammy tart black currant at the top, delightful florals in the heart, night blooming jasmine and peony to be precise. I am a dedicated fun of both. Jasmine is a floral classic, peony is delicate and feminine. There is a fluffy white musk in the base together with vanilla. It is definitely not an overly sweet scent, vanilla is there, but it is bearable.

Flowerbomb Midnight smells a little bit like an older sister to Musk Therapy by Initio. If you like one, you are going to enjoy the other one too. And it is a much more affordable version of that.

I personally enjoy this flanker of Flowerbomb. If the OG is too punchy and strong, Midnight is gentler and cloudier. Being a mum, I prefer this calmer and closer to the skin flanker. It is another scent which is not super popular but if you like designer fragrances, you should really give it a chance.
