La Prairie Midnight Rain is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2006. Midnight Rain opens with Mandarin, Freesia, Guava, and Pomegranate, settles into a heart of Plum Blossom, Lily, Orchid, and Hyssop, and dries down to a base of Cashmere Wood, Musk, Vetiver, and Patchouli. La Prairie's Midnight Rain carries an Acquired verdict, a floral-led wear.

This one is a real treasure, often mourned since its discontinuation. It's a luscious tropical fruit cocktail with a sophisticated floral woody depth that garnered passionate praise, making it a highly coveted, unique scent. If you can find it, it's worth the splurge, making you feel undeniably sexy and luxurious, though some may find the sweetness a tad much.

About

Midnight Rain opens with a burst of juicy guava and pomegranate, immediately tropical and vibrant. This sweet, sparkling start mellows into an elegant heart of exotic orchid and lily, underpinned by a soft plum blossom. The dry down introduces a luxurious, creamy base of cashmere wood and musk, threaded with an earthy hint of patchouli and grounding vetiver, creating a sensual and warm finish.
