🌃 The Inspiration: The City at Night
Palermo after dark. Shadows, stone, and the scent of citrus groves drifting into the city. Midnight in Palermo is a dark, woody, patchouli-based citrus. It is mysterious, sexy, and nocturnal.
🧪 The Olfactory Architecture: Shadow and Light
The scent opens with Bergamot and Black Pepper. The heart is Incense and Jasmine. The base is Dark Patchouli and Leather. The citrus cuts through the darkness.
