Midnight in Paris is a legendary, much-missed gem that still commands fanatical devotion years after its discontinuation. It's a nuanced, comforting amber-leather dream, though some find it a bit powdery or leaning feminine. A few even reckon it's nothing special, but they're very much in the minority. If you can find it for a decent price, snap it up.

This Anniversary edition from Xerjoff splits the room: some hail it as an 11/10 masterpiece, while others are put off by its sweetness or peculiar opening. Expect a luxurious, evolving scent, but be prepared for its potent, long-lasting presence.
