Avon Midnight is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2007, created by Yann Vasnier and Stephen Nilsen. Midnight opens with Cardamom, Ginger, and Coriander, settles into a heart of Cedar, Sandalwood, Vetiver, and Guaiac Wood, and dries down to a base of Musk, Amber, Labdanum, and Benzoin. Avon's Midnight carries an Acquired verdict, a musk-led wear.

Midnight is a spiced, woody-amber masculine that does what its name suggests: dark, warm and made for evenings. Cardamom and ginger give it a lift, and the wood and resin base gives it real weight.

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

About

Midnight opens with cardamom, ginger and coriander, a crisp, aromatic spice start. The heart is a stack of woods: sandalwood, guaiac wood, vetiver and cedar, which feel dry, smoky and grounded. The base of amber, benzoin, labdanum and musk adds resinous warmth and a soft sweetness. It is a classic spicy-woody scent, moving steadily from bright spice to deep, warm resin, and it is well suited to evenings.
