Midnight Lacquer

Which Should You Buy?
Divisive, dark, and utterly distinctive. Black Lacquer isn't for everyone, but if you're chasing that 'industrial goth meets ancient temple' vibe, you've found your signature. It's a love-it-or-hate-it affair, but for those who get it, it's a masterpiece.
A budget take on Tom Ford Black Lacquer. Midnight Lacquer reproduces the dark, inky, smoky-woody signature - black pepper and rum over ebony and a big olibanum incense - but renders the original's dimensional 'lacquer' opulence flatter, with shorter longevity.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
A cold-weather scent - best worn in winter and autumn.
Occasions
This is a strong, dark, and complex fragrance, making it far too intense for office wear. Its mysterious and alluring nature, coupled with its excellent longevity and projection, makes it perfect for date nights and formal evening events. It's too unique and heavy for casual daytime wear or anything active.
Seasons
The dark, smoky incense and woody depth are made for cold autumn and winter nights, far too heavy for warm weather.
Occasions
Its bold, mysterious character suits evenings and dressed-up occasions rather than the office or daytime.
Similarity Breakdown
Both share Woody, Warm Spicy, Amber accords and Ebony, Elemi notes
