4160 Tuesdays Midnight in the Palace Garden is a Parfum launched in 2015, created by Sarah McCartney. Midnight in the Palace Garden opens with Blood Orange, Neroli, and Artemisia, settles into a heart of Jasmine, Frangipani, and Coffee, and dries down to a base of Woody, Cedar, Sandalwood, and Vanilla. 4160 Tuesdays's Midnight in the Palace Garden carries an Acquired verdict, a woody-led wear.

An evocative, theatrical night-garden floral from one of Britain's most imaginative indie houses. A pungent blood-orange and white-flower opening unfolds into heady jasmine, frangipani and coffee before settling on a smooth woody-vanilla drydown. Polarising performance and a quiet base divide opinion, but those who love it rate it among 4160 Tuesdays' finest.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Fall Winter

A cool-weather, after-dark scent. The blood-orange and white-floral opening has a warm, spiced character, and the woody-coffee-vanilla drydown reads thick and cosy on cool skin - reviewers call it christmassy and link it to the brand's mulled-wine accord, so autumn and winter suit it best while high summer is the weakest fit.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date
Also Works:
Casual Formal

Its evocative, slightly theatrical night-garden character and intimate-to-moderate projection make it a strong date and cool-weather evening pick rather than an office or sport scent. The pungent opening and close-to-skin woody base reward casual personal wear; a few wearers find it formal-elegant enough for dressed-up occasions.

About

Midnight in the Palace Garden opens loud and citric, a pungent burst of blood orange and bright neroli over a herbal davana lift that some read as mulled wine. It calms quickly into the heart of the composition, where night-blooming jasmine and frangipani bloom against an unexpected thread of warm coffee, conjuring the brand's image of a moonlit Eastern garden. As it dries down the woods take over: three kinds of cedar and a creamy sandalwood form a smooth, incense-tinged base softened by a discreet vanilla sweetness. A little goes a long way, and the woody finish sits close to the skin.
