Burberry Midnight Journey is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2021, created by Aurélien Guichard. Midnight Journey opens with Pepper, Ginger, and Thyme, settles into a heart of Guaiac Wood, Lavender, and Grasse Rose Absolute, and dries down to a base of Vanilla Absolute, Amber, and Myrrh. Burberry's Midnight Journey carries an Acquired verdict, a musk-led wear.

Midnight Journey is a spicy, woody-sweet evening scent: ginger, pepper and thyme, then guaiac wood, rose and lavender, then vanilla, myrrh and amber. Warm, dark and a little smoky. A good fit for cold nights.

Scent Profile

Composition

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.
