I have it: 139 I had it: 19 I want it: 213 My signature: 1
Pop diva Beyonce launched her first perfume Heat in 2010. After the original, Heat Ultimate Elixir and Heat Rush also appeared on the market. In 2012, Beyonce launches the latest, more sensual than the previous ones Midnight Heat. Midnight Heat exudes passion in the air and embodies excitement of hot summer nights.
It opens with rich fruity flavors of plum from Armenia and star fruit. Orchid, black tulips and purple peony form the heart that gradually turns into the oriental base of warm amber, sandalwood and patchouli.
The fragrance is available as 15, 30, 50 and 100 ml Eau de Parfum. The nose behind this fragrance is Olivier Gillotin.

So , finally i received as a gift , i have tasted it before and i have reviewed a quite negative opinion .
But i like it now !! Maybe because is Beyonce , maybe because it smells so sweet like gummy bears ! It's very girlie and lovely , like a pink doll !
Definitely i can smell patchouli, plum and sandalwood.
I think it is more suitable for spring and fall , on rainy nights !!
Smell through the nose taste of juicy, sweet, ripe plums... That is it!
Incredibly sweet, but I don't mind.
Let me start by saying that I have never gotten so many compliments as with this fragrance. My friends and boyfriend adore this on me. I guess plum is just my thing then... Lol.
Midnight Heat is almost pure plum+patchouli on me. It's very linear and very sweet also. Personally I'm not so sure about the plum but since the people around me love it, why not. I have absolutely no idea what carambola smells like, so I couldn't tell if I smell it here or not.
I also have the original Heat and they're the same only in sweetness and fruitiness. In my opinion the only thing that makes this anything 'midnight' is the patchouli but no, this is not an evening frag to me. I don't think Midnight Heat is very sexy, but nice and maybe a little serious too.
Sillage medium to heavy and lasts max 5 hours on me.
fruity floral, floral fruity, same old same old, this smells like a million other perfumes right now.
Too spicy and heavy for me...it must be the patchouli.. regret buying it
Nice fragrance. Different but wears off really fast and have to keep respraying. Only lasts maybe an hour on my skin.
a bit sour and sweet
LOVE IT
I have heat, heat rush and midnight rush and I must say I love this the best out of all 3! I just love the the smell of the first spray it's gorgeous so fruity and sweet I love the plum in this, defiantly worth the buy.
When I think of Midnight Heat, the first word that comes to mind is tropical. This fragrance is reminiscent of nice, relaxing summer nights by the water. Patchouli and succulent plum are mainly the two strongest notes in this fragrance and give it a very striking scent. The florals aren't that prominent, but are still existent through the middle. This fragrance is simply lovely overall; from the bottle design to the attention to detail. The longevity is great and the projection is good too. Midnight Heat is definitely one of my favourite fragrances and has the perfect balance of complementary notes to make it such a gorgeous scent.
It's a great choice for warm summer nights. It reminds me of Dot by Marc Jacobs, but sexier. Pitahaya is the star ingredient here, and it gives the fragrance this fun and bubbly attitude. Love the exotic vibe in this one, just makes me put on a lovely flowy dress and start dancing samba.
I received a sample of this recently. I own the original Heat and have received samples of Heat Rush, Pulse, and Pulse Summer since that purchase. However, I was not thrilled with any of those. This one is definitely a keeper! It outlasted the original Heat by at least 3 hours and the dry down is so much more fragrant. I definitely smell the patchouli and the plum. It makes me think of a summer night, which I'm assuming it's supposed to do. Beyonce's team did a good job with this one.
Tried a sample of this today and I like it. It smells like something you want to inhale deeply again and again. Its a cool weather scent and I would not recommend this for summer. It smells sweet and I think its the Patchouli that I am smelling. I will enjoy the sample vial while it lasts.
I just got this yesterday for 19euros in a set, which includes the body lotion as well as the shower gel. I am so happy I got it because I really really like it.
It is very sweet and I can definitely smell the sugared plums as well as strong patchouli throughout, which gives the perfume a more spicy and dark feel to it. It is definitely a very fruity and tropical fragrance. I think its very playful, alluring and seductive, definitely a type of scent that would get noticed by others. Also suitable for both day and night use.
The lasting power is good. It lasts for about 4 hours on me. I dont mind respraying this throughout the day and for the price I think its good enough. Definitely my favorite out of all the Beyonce perfumes.
very fruity smell, a bit sour but i like it
Rewiew no 2.
I really love Beyonce , i have her perfumes even Heat is my signature BUT Midnight Heat is just a fail to me !
Beyonce is so sexy and she has class so this perfume it doesn't express her !!
Where is the plum ? Star fruit ? Warm patchouli ? No where , just being invisible . This perfume smells exactly like Gummy Bears-Haribo and i really don't want to smell like a gummy bear - it is nice smell and gourmand but not sexy , not something like i would wear at Midnight ! There is nothing sexy about it !
I disslike this perfume , despite i love Beyonce and her other perfume but this is a totally no for me .. I am disappointed by queen B' .
The heat range has BEAUTIFUL bottles!! These look gorgeous in my collection i love the purple!! Anyway, seems like "midnight" is the new way to describe celeb berry-plum-sweet scents, i.e., britney's midnight fantasy. not a good marketing tool makes me think of deep patchouli scents. Beautiful fume and bottle!!
I just smelt this perfume at the store today, and wow, does it ever resemble JLo's DESEO. I find it very much like a watery, leafy garden. However, I can't say I enjoy it. And I also can't say it's an Oriental Floral... there's nothing oriental here!
I'm Having this in 1 day! Wooo I cant wait also it sounds good! Thanks x
Not a fan of this. So much lighter than other two Heats. Also feeling like a quality's gone lower. Doesn't last as well and is fruitier than others. Not my kind of scent. Was a little disappointed.
I love all of the heat range, but this one just smells gorgeous. Just pure fruitiness in a bottle, so tropical and yummy! I couldn't stop smelling my wrist!
This is a lovely fragrance but I think the original 'Heat' is more worthy of being called 'Midnight Heat'. When I tried this originally in Superdrug I tried it on a tester strip and I could smell cinnamon and a more spicy deep scent. I purchased it and when I tried it on my skin at home I could just smell deep berry fruits. Its a nice fragrance but teaches me to always try scents on my skin. Got a bargain though, got the 30ml set with shower gel and body cream for £12.99.
This scent is my favourite out of the 3 Heat fragrances. It is very bright & tropical. It reminds me of a very summery breakfast juice. When I smell it, it takes me to a sunny, tropical island at sunset. It is perfect for outings on warm Summer evenings. The patchouli is so noticeable, along with the juicy plum & star fruit. Some florals come out in the middle, but not really. Mainly, it settles into a vibrant, fruity musk. Midnight Heat lasts for ages! I can still smell it 7-12 hours after application! It lasts longer than the previous 2 Heats. This fragrance overall just lifts my mood and makes me happy and bright with its cheery, colourful scent. If you would like a new perfume to wear in the evenings of Summer, and you're sick of Midnight Fantasy, then I recommend Midnight Heat by Beyoncé!
Its so unoriginal, smells like a high class perfume though. Its very warm, sweat & formal..
smells as fruits shampoo or body scrub ,, sweet, refreshing, nice but nothing related to the night here !
alll I can smell is the delicious Pitahaya ..
This must be called (midday heat) ..
I was rather surprised by the scent, i'm not normally a big fan of celebrity scents, i find them quite alcoholic and generic but this one was so fruity i couldnt stop smelling it in the store !! There was no first alcoholly first scent, it was straight into the berry scents. Really lovely perfume for everyday wear.
Plum seems to be popping up in a lot of mainstream perfume now, and MIDNIGHT HEAT opens with a dark and rich plum note. Whilst I know it's meant to be star fruit, there is a hint of what smells to me like raspberry. There is also some fig mingled in amongst the other fruit, too. The plum note is much stronger on me then the other fruit notes, so carries down to the perfume's heart and base.
I'm not able to separate any floral notes apart from a hint of rose and the peony from the sweetly powdered floral jumble heart of the fragrance, as the patchouli develops quickly and lasts for the duration of the perfume. What I think is meant to be the orchid is slightly spicy vanilla, that makes me think 'Turkish Delight'. The mix of earthy patchouli, powdery florals and rich fruits is very curious; the structure of everything here doesn't really go together on me, but the blend seems lively, and it all works together somehow.
There is no strong indication between the heart notes and the base, thanks to the constant presence of the plum and patchouli, that seems stronger then any of the other key scent notes [on me, anyway]. The sandalwood and amber are mingled closely together so it is a warm and creamy mix, that is again similar to the heart notes.
***
MIDNIGHT HEAT has better longevity then the earlier Coty/Beyonce releases; a six hour average on me. It's still not amazingly great overall - but it is very good for the price. And at least we're getting some improvement, in term of longevity, as the brand continues, unlike most of the other Coty ranges [I'm looking straight at you Kylie].
I prefer wearing this in colder weather, as the clashing scent notes are more apparent at this time of year. But considering that MIDNIGHT HEAT has some strong keynotes and a sweet drydown, it hasn't become sickly or cloying in the brief patches of mildly warmer weather we've had since I've had my bottle. However I wouldn't wear it on hot days, as I've found patchouli to be a smothering and overpowering scent.
MIDNIGHT HEAT was made as the evening wear edition of Heat, but I can comfortably wear it whenever I want [during the day, casually and for work] - over these colder months anyway, as although it is a noticeable fragrance I don't find it cloying or irritating to wear, and other people like it too, so I don't feel that it is invasive to others. In summer I think that I'd stick to using it for special occasions though, as I find it to be a bit of a statement fragrance and a bit too much for day to day wear.
I absolutely adore this fragrance. Simply put it comes across as an amalgamation of Thierry Mugler's Womanity and Ralph Lauren Big Pony #4 For Her. It is almost incense based, but I am getting a cherry and amber note as well.
Before I get to talking about scent itself I have a little story about Macy's fragrance department. Several weeks ago I asked an SA if they had this scent, making sure I specifically told her "its not Beyonce's first scent, its the new one called Midnight Heat". After looking around and several consultations with other SAs, she told it was "discontinued". Huh? "But it just came out?" "Yes, but they already discountinued it". Gee, imagine my suprise when I was walking through Macy's this past weekend and happened to see Midnight Heat. That's why I never bother asking SA at their fragrance department any questions normally because they clearly can't find their way out of paper bag and its amazing how much more knowledgable are fragrance enthusiasts on this site. But I digress..
I smelled the original before and best way to describe it would be spiced rum(don't ask me why but that's what I thought when I smelled the original) and it makes me think of winter, roaring fires and having a warm spiced drink. Midnight Heat smells like it has the original base notes but it has the addition of dark fruit on top. It definately smells deep, yet fruity with a hint of spice. For anyone who smelled recent VS addition, Deep Orchid(or whatever its called), this is what it should have smelled like. I really did like this scent but I don't find lasting power to be very good-I only got couple of hours wear. I do kind of want to try it again before writing it off-I have been looking for deep fruity scent and this is exactly it
Nice I hit the Belk store today to check out all of the new fragrances out for Christmas I will get this one eventually.
Midnight heat is a verry sexy fragrance! It does smells exotic and sweet with the plum and pitahaya. the orchid balance the perfume of being to sweet,the amber makes a nice velvety coat on that smooth fragrance!I smell a little bit here and there:The tulips,the patchouli,the sandal wood... To wear in the night...
For those who have never tasted pitahaya or 'dragonfruit', it is a very bland fruit (almost flavorless, as a matter of fact), is full of tiny, crunchy black seeds, and makes a pretty effective laxative. [I've had two in my lifetime and it has never occurred to me to seek out a 3rd.]
With the nature of this fruit, it's difficult to imagine that it would lend much if any scent to a perfume, and, this being the case, it was probably included for its 'exotic" quality more than its fragrance.
The account executive for coty said this was a flop, they are workig on a new one
Love Beyoncés perfumes! My mom had Heat and it was amazing. Sweet,delicious and mysterious. Heat Rush was also interesting and I loved it! I thought this one was great too.
I tried this a few nights ago at Macys and heres my review: I found this to be well worth the wait considering it JUST got put on display at the local Macys last week... Its a soft-oriental with a heavy dose of sweet linear patchouli. There is absolutely nothing earthy (or quiet) about this patch... The florals here r merely co-stars in this fragrant movie lol... We all know who the star is here... While the sillage could be improved the drydown of amber makes 4 a lasting skin-scent... I got about 4 hrs total wear from this and will be happy to purchase a giftset :)
I was so disappointed when I smelled this. The other Heat fragrances were sexy and delicious, but when I tested this on my skin all I got was Patchouli. And by that I mean lots and lots of overwhelmingly bitter Patchouli. I wish I could smell this sweet-and-spicy fragrance that everyone is talking about, but I guess it just doesn't work for me. For the second time now, I'm hit with the whole "my skin chemistry hates this perfume" bit. It's too bad, I was really looking forward to this one. But to those who smell the pure sexiness that was intended for this frag, you are so lucky and I'm kind of jealous.
I finally got a bottle of this. I sprayed it in the store and thought yep I like that and just got it. As I wore it I couldn't figure out why it smelled so familiar but it is because on me it smells a lot like a mix of the Ralph Lauren Pony the pink one and the purple one because the purple one is a little sharp must be the cherry and so is beyonce's but I am not sure what is making Beyonce's sharp to me but I like it and probably I like it the most out of all her perfumes so far which I didn't think I would because I am always crapping on about how wonderful the original Heat is but I do enjoy this one more for some reason. I wish I could get the lotion to go with it but everywhere I go they don't seem to have that.
I can smell a faint chocolatey smell in it as well and I am not sure why or a faint gourmay smell maybe it is the amber giving that impression?
I have trouble getting it to last on me so I just have to keep re spraying it but I like it so much I am not bothered I just give it a quick spray and then I am set for a while.
This is a very heavy, sweet fragrance. It starts off fruity and sweet, and just a bit tart. I can only describe this phase as "sparkling". The patchouli is very prominent, as well as the plum. It seems to get deeper and sweeter as it wears. There is something very, very sweet in this, beyond just the sweetness of the plum. This can be cloying if over applied. I like this but only in light doses, and definitely only at night.
Beyonce has nailed it yet again. I've been waiting for this to be released in my area for over a month and I am not disappointed :). It's beautiful and spicy with just the right amount of fruit (love the fruit selection by the way) and a light floral in the middle. It is very seductive (not as much as the original Heat which still give me, and anyone around me goosebumps when I wear it). It smell very romantic to me. Its wonderful for those summer and fall nights (maybe after a day of wearing Heat Rush) and I will wear it into the winter too, its spicy enough. Big thumbs up on the bottle too, a stunning addition to my collection.
Patchouli, some fruity sweetness and more patchouli.
Five minutes in? Just patchouli. It seems that my skin just sucked up everything else and left just bitter patch behind.
I have a sample of this and I thought I could use it to layer with some of my sweet fragrances to give them a sexy little kick for evening. I'm not sure that I'll be able to do that, as this dries down so intensely patchouli on me, it might overshadow whatever else I wear with it.
I'll bet it smells hot & sexy on someone with different chemistry than mine. I wish it could be me. :(
tried this lately its real nice and a bit peppery just realized i like peppery a bit more than fruity especially since way too fruity sears your nostrils, pulse, and pulse heat is also very pleasent, the 3 smell kinda the same with slight variables but midnight is more peppery, nice frags, 7 outta 10 for this one and pulse heat, thats my opinion
Bravoo bravoo!!!! after all i must admit that Beyonce parfums its soo delicious its soo unique from the other celebrity scent like paris or what ever !!!i like the Pulse too but this one its great!!!
To me, this scent smells very "purple" (if colors have a smell LOL) but I'm not really that crazy about this scent.
But I adore the bottle. It's even better looking in person!!
OMG I love it so much.
I had a lot of expectations since I love Heat and Midnight Heat was created by the same guy.
I'm not disapointed, it's as sexy as Heat.
It is indeed quite oriental, but nicely mixed up with a fruity scent. This is a quite sexy smell.
Despite the name is "Midnight Heat", I don't think about going to disco when I smell it, I think about a sweet night.
I love perfumes, and I can tell Bee's ones are more interesting than some others released by luxury brands these days. Her perfumes have quite a personality!
How is beyonce net worth 300 million and she makes perfume worth 3 bucks????????????? Midnight heat is ordinary boring safe no fun basic basic basic!!! While we as perfumeheads spend our hard earned money most celebs don't even wear their horrid concoctions. Futhermore Heat while ok isn't sexy or hot Heat rush ok again lasted 30 mins tops never tried Pulse out of pure fear lol. Now all celebs aren't lacking M by mariah not for everyone but sexy well done Britney spears fantasy is a well deserved boy catcher and my favorite +eleb fragrance is drumrolllllll............................. Paris hilton heiress once again not for everyone but its unique sexy long lasting smell expensive but isn't. SO MRS CARTER TAKE A NOTE PUT SOME ESSENTIAL OILS IN YOUR PERFUMES AND CREATE SOME UNIQUE NOTES.
Beyonce's fragrances tend to be rather fruity and sweet, and Midnight Heat is no exception. Prior to testing this fragrance, like Diggerbey, I had fears that it would be very similar to Midnight Fantasy by Britney Spears. Thankfully this fragrance is less juicy and more of a spicy-sweet floral.
I would be more than happy to receive this fragrance as a gift. It sits nicely on the skin, slightly more subdued in regards to sillage than the original Heat. I find it perfect for all seasons, and particularly lovely on a warm Summer night.
Midnight Heat opens with a fruity and rich burst of plum and star fruit. I wasn't too thrilled with the top notes as I found them a little bland and predictable, however the heart and drydown are worth waiting around for.
Tulip is a relatively rare note in perfumery, however in Midnight Heat it smells heavenly, especially when blended with the sweet plum. Patchouli, amber and musk in the drydown gives this fragrance a warmer and spicier feel. I'm glad to see that many other reviewers are as much of a fan of the drydown as I am.
Although many appear to be disappointed by the longevity, I am not. It lasted on my skin for a good six or so hours. The sillage however, is fairly light, as I mentioned before.
I really like the packaging for this flanker. The purple bottle is an eye-catcher that I would happily display on my dresser at home. My prediction is that Midnight Heat will sell extremely well, especially over the Christmas period. It's a bit of a crowd-pleaser.
a nice SA gave me a little bon bon sample of this, and while it's not bad, it's not me. very dark, lots of patchouli, and it is reminiscent of something i've used long ago. nice, for night, but since i am a homebody, i will pass
When i saw the packaging and the notes here, i really thought that will be a very sensual perfume , but i turned out to smell just like Haribo gummy bears . I like this scent but is't just too plain to buy it.
As a big fan of Beyonce , i started to collect her perfumes but i rather spend my money on better perfumes ,I don't understand how a woman like Beyonce with all that class, sexiness and style is keeping producing such childish perfumes ?
I don't mean anything subjectively i really LOVE Beyonce, even Heat it's my signature , but i have expected more from her , more grown up perfumes like Gucci-Gucci , Hypnotic Poison- Dior ..
. pls don't get me wrong , i am a teen too :)
How can somebody dislike this perfume? Its smells so good! But my favorite pefume of beyonce i still (pulse)
Lovely scent,smells very similar to her 1st fragrance 'Heat' and Fergie's 'Viva' fragrance which i adore too.Just a a pity the lasting power is not great.
Tried this today without huge expectations as a lot of the reviews are quite negative. However, really liked it! It's very me! I adore patchouli/dirty fruit scents and i'm happy to report I get a good dose of both in this fragrance! However, when I first sprayed it, it was to my nose very reminiscent of Jennifer Lopez 'Deseo'. After drying down a little, a more 'dirty' fruity/patchouli scent develops which I adored!! Only negative........staying power was very weak after 3 hours nearly every trace of it's loveliness is gone :( If the staying power was good this would be a must purchase for me, but seeing that it's pretty poor i'll have to think about it. xxx
p.s I had sprayed this both on a tester strip and on my arm. I noticed it smelled quite horrible on the card strip but it was really lovely on the skin, this is one that needs body heat to reach it's full potential!!
Edit:
Well after finally deciding to purchase this fragrance, I am glad I did. I love it more and more and it is one of the few in my collection that generates compliments when I wear it. The staying power is not as good as 'Heat', it must be said, but dare I also say I love the smell more than?? I think i'm in the minority there though! Please don't discontinue it, I'm hoping what I read about it being a complete bomb in the sales department weren't true :( xxx
This is one, that i just knew that i was going to love. I was wrong..... VERY spicy. The Pitahaya (Dragonfruit) is the dominatrix of this fragrance. Alot of people are mistaking the Dragonfruit note, for plum. If you have ever had a fresh dragonfruit, then you would automatically detect it in this fragrance. It is a very watery, fresh, spicy fruit. That deffinitally, shows in this fragrance. I detect a little bit of the starfruit, and SLIGHT plum. The initial burst of this fragrance, is the dragonfruit. Not plum. After about an hour of wearing this fragrance, the orchid started to shine through, and the plum became a little bit stronger. At the 2 hour mark, all that you can smell is the typical light musk, accomanied with any fragrance on the market. The lasting power, is TERRIBLE. as with all of Beyonce's fragrances. This one lasts SLIGHTLY longer than Heat Rush (My Favorite of hers) but still, not good.
The only problem I have with this fragrance it's that to me even on a testers trip and on my skin that it fades pretty quickly. :( but I liv it! :)
Ok Midnight is probably my favorite from the Heat line. It is DRIVING me CRAZY that I can't figure out what it smells like! It's on the tip of my tongue! I'll figure it out eventually or die trying. Haha! I don't mind that it doesn't last long because it really is my favorite from the line. Gosh Midnight and Pulse are neck and neck as my fav from her really. NICE JOB Beyonce and Coty! Really really nice fragrance and I can see myself gifting Midnight to all the beautiful ladies in my life. Can we talk about that purple bottle?! LOVE IT! : )
REB'L FLEUR!!!!!! That's what Midnight smells like! Good call all you reviewers! : )
I have this perfume! I love it! It smells like cinnamon and juicy fruit!
When I first sprayed this on myself my heart DROPPED like it was on the DROP ZONE at Great America. It smelled of Dried Tulips and some dried and stale fruits. I couldn't belive it. Horrible smell. Then, maybe 15 minutes later it dried down to a beautiful, spicy and sweet scent! Sweet, a bit of woods and beautful sweetness around some spices. Glad I waited! I love it! This is also the best Beyonce Heat bottle as the cap has a hint of purple to it! Think this one might be my fave!
The lasting power is ok. Starts off strong but after 2 hours it's skin scent. Doesn't disappear without a trace but it stays very close
Can't wait for the lotion. Hope the lotion is more of the dry-down! I'll do a more in depth review when I get the body lotion!
Very soft and sexy.. Smells like a mix between her Heat and Heat Rush.Love it!
I shoulda taken heed of the reviews.
This is very weak on sillage and longevity. Heat and Heat Rush are much stronger and much better. I'm bitterly disappointed... I was hoping for a dark, plumy, rich orchid, mysterious, barn burner of a frag.
I'm so glad I got the 1.7oz off ebay and not the 3.4oz. I never woulda paid full price for this at any store after sniffing, and in fact would not have bought at ALL after sniffing.
Oh! Beyonce... I'm so crushed. *sigh*
The only notes I detect are the star fruit and Pitahaya.
NO plum, NO FLOWERS at all.
The faintest of faint cheap mentholated Patch does show up later, but by then, who cares!
No woodiness at all.
No resin...
even the fruit that is there doesn't resemble "tropical" or "heat" or "midnight".
It shoulda been called:
"Hey I found a rotting star fruit on the bottom of my shoe!"
Flat. A barely detectable frag that is, overall, a sweet/mentholated mess. SO weak. Not even in the same league as her previous offerings.
Don't do it blind, is all I'm saying.
SO many bottles of Midnight on ebay! SO tempting! Must fight it! Haha. : )
@DIGGERBEY...lol :) GLAD it worked for you , it was just too bland for me..maybe cause im 35 now, and all my scents i wore at 24, had become too weak...so it so fades on me ...i need my dior addict and chanel chance family! ha!
Finally Midnight Heat is here and it really is amazing. Now I was kinda worried that Midnight Heat would be similar to Midnight Fantasy because of the plum and orchid notes that they both share but gladly their quite different. M.F is very sweet almost candy like while M.H is very exotic and spicy. When I first spray this on I get the fruity opening that's sweet but not cloying. The plum and starfruit mix with the heart which is floral. The fruits are there but lighter than before, at this point the orchid and black tulip take over which makes a very sexy scent almost tropical. Towards the end of the M.H you get the sandalwood and amber which makes it quite warm and perfect for the evening. Overall Midnight Heat was another hit from Beyonce it lasts about 7 hours in my skin which is great for an EDT and it smells delicious. Oh and to reviewers saying this smells similar to Rebele Fleur by Rihanna I can kinda smell it in the heart but this one has more of a punch with the exotic fruits on the top. But their quite different in the top and in the base, R.F smells like coconuts when first sprayed M.H smells fruity , both are tropical but M.H is more spicier.
@MANDESHELL ,LOL! yeah..i agree..at least we can test and return it!
AHHH Sweetgirl you read my mind!!! When I smelled it I too thought it was a VERY watered down version of Reb'l Fleur. Glad to know I'm not the only one! o.O It's a very tepid fragrance. Soft yet likable fruits, a little sweetness, a bit of spice and that is about it! All the notes are muted so I'm not head-over-heels for this one and find it rather average. -_- If you were expecting an exotic and HOT plum fragrance then you may be quite disappointed as I was. This is honestly like the Edt version of Reb'l Fleur sans the pineapple. Lasting power is like 4hrs tops and by the 2nd hour it's a skin scent. :(
And Jonr951 I just ordered mine directly from Macy's website. ^_^
if you are looking for something really great this is not it...sorry b you tried.:)
@jonr , yes, it's of course spicier but now it totally dawned on me : This smells just like the VSecret body mist : love spell midnight from their midnight mist collection , smells almost total identical and I have it so it's a smell I have smelled before , everyone look at your vs stash u might have it lol!
@sweetgirl, OH NO! Is it like Heat Rush's lasting power?! Such a bummer! You're still lucky you've gotten to experience it. My Macys told me it would be coming when Gaga's does. That's SO far away! : (
Taking this bk to the store, this has no lasting power , its gone in an hour and leaves no trail , more like a light skin scent , quite not impressed , looking for strength not a name , lol
I like this but its..not lasting only like 2 hours...oh well, maybe i need the lotion!
Ok,I decided its a keeper! , had to spray more on and I had mixed my scent with some other stuff so , took a shower and sprayed this on again and it is yummy so , I guess I won't try too many scents with out taking others off my body! :) hee hee!
Kinda on the fence with this one now....it's kinda a lil bit of a bad Copy dry spicy undertone of Rihanna first scent and like she tried but hers just can't become rebel fl like rhiannas and it does not last on me . It's kinda going manly spice , my bf kinda doesn't like it too much , he said smells like diesel fluid and old fruit , lol so Any one else not too sure ?
So, I finally received this today. I am in love! This perfume is nothing like BS Midnight fantasy. This is definitely classified as an oriental fragrance.I can definitely pick up on the black tulips and the purple peony. This perfume is very well done. The base having warm amber and the sandalwood are remarkable! This has some resemblance to the original heat perfume but 10X better!
JUST GOT THIS! YUMMY..very sexy and fun...
The stores where I live got this recently, so I went out and sampled it. The plum is most predominant, but it's a dark, seductive plum. Then it gets a little spicy kick in there, which is nice. The dry down could be a little on the unisex side, as I can still smell the woods and patchouli. I think it smells sensual; it reminds me of being on the beach during a summer evening. I really like it so far and I may end up purchasing it soon. I think this one may be the sexiest one Bey's put out so far.
It's amazing! I got the bottle off eBay & received it yesterday! It's sweet & spicy. The initial spray starts off with sweet plum & starfruit with undertones of spicyness from the patchouli as well as an extra hit of sweetness coming the amber. As it drys down the florals start to ascend. Although, the spicyness continues to be promenant. The final dry down is definitely more on the spicy side. Over, I feel like it ca pass off as a unisex fragrance because of the spicyness of the base. I really love it for a year round evening fragrance. I can't wait for the body products to come out as well! =]
