Bath and Body Works: Forever Midnight

Hey guys! Sorry for this being a bit late, but here it is anyways- Bath and Body Works Limited Edition Forever Midnight! 

The one I'm reviewing today is the sample edition that's available until the full bottle is released, along with the secret (shush) Forever Midnight COLOGNE. (According to the saleswoman who was setting up the Forever Midnight display, the cologne and perfume smell really good when mixed together. Hmm. 
         
          

This little bottle here is packed with eau de parfum, so it lasts a long time. Really long time. Either way, this specific container includes .25 fl oz./7mL, so it's a pretty good amount. 

On to the smell. I think it's safe to say that this is one of my favorite scents ever!  It's a very elegant scent, including plum nectar, jasmine, and apple blossoms. Midnight is a word that encompasses it perfectly. Take a look at the website description.


Midnight: the hour of undeniable chemistry. A spark of sensual Plum Nectar ignites the thrilling heart of Midnight Jasmine and Vanilla Orchid, velvety florals that bloom sexiest after dark with a hint of seductive spice. The final rush of intoxicating Caramel Liqueur creates the ultimate collision of fragrance and passion.
  • Top Notes: Plum Nectar, Apple Blossom, Caramelized Pear

Sounds good enough to eat! Plum nectar is definitely the most potent note in this, and is one that stays the entire time you're wearing it. Jasmine is definitely the second most "smell-able" one, being a middle note and possibly base note. 
 
My only "iff" with Forever midnight is that it only lasts several hours, even though it is an eau de parfum.

OVERALL: I think that Forever Midnight is definitely a must try. It's definitely better than its sister series, Forever Red. Even it you're not sure you'll like it, give it a go- priced at $5, it's no biggie, you can always give it away to someone, or maybe your nose will change. I don't know. 

OVERALL RATINGS:
Scent: I give Forever Midnight a 5/5 for its plum, floral scent!
Durability: This doesn't last as long as I would have thought, so I give it a 3/5.
Would I Buy it Again: Yes!
