Dior Midnight Poison Elixir is an Extrait de Parfum launched in 2008, created by François Demachy. Midnight Poison Elixir settles into a heart of Amber, Patchouli, Rose, and Vanilla. Dior's Midnight Poison Elixir carries an Acquired verdict, a patchouli-led wear.

A truly heartbreaking discontinuation for many, Midnight Poison Elixir is a powerhouse of dark patchouli and sweet caramel. It's a love-it-or-hate-it scent that commands attention, unapologetically mysterious and bold.

About

Midnight Poison Elixir delves deep into a rich tapestry of scent. A potent opening of earthy patchouli is quickly softened by a decadent caramel note, offering a gourmand-leaning sweetness without becoming cloying. As it settles, a dark, almost withered rose emerges, wrapped in the warm embrace of amber and a smooth vanilla, creating a complex, seductive dry down that's both intense and mysteriously inviting.
