## Scent notes

- Top: Coffee, Rum
- Heart: Chocolate, Toasted Hazelnut
- Base: Benzoin, Vanilla

Midnight Espresso by By Kilian is a dark, boozy, unisex coffee gourmand composed by Mathieu Nardin. Coffee and rum open it roasted, strong and a little sharp. Chocolate and toasted hazelnut soften the heart, and benzoin and vanilla hold the base, leaving a warm, faintly smoky finish. The dark roast against the creamy base is the whole point: bitter and sweet in turn. It reads more like dessert than flowers, so it suits anyone who likes a dense, brooding style. Cold-weather evenings and nights are when voters reach for it. The longevity vote tilts long-lasting, with some voters going as far as eternal, and the sillage vote tilts strong, so it rarely needs topping up. Take a 3ml decant through a run of chilly nights and see if it earns the bottle.
