It doesn't smell like before or after sex, but rather the in-between state of seduction where time doesn't exist. Its what you would want your skin to smell like when a vampire nuzzles your neck. Reminds me of twilight zones, HIM's Love Metal album, leather and lace, Anne Rice books. Its like wearing beautiful lingerie and sitting on a leather chair and breathing in the scent of of dusty full bloom roses and smoke. It dries down to be powdery and there is a specific sexy sweetness to it, the lingering subtle honey on skin when it dries down. Its a sensual, sexy, dark fragrance, but not spicy or sweet or overpowering. I think the name of this fragrance captures its essence perfectly, it smells like love in otherworldly realms. I've been using this for years now, its my favorite, so romantic and mystical. In short: yes, this Mass-themed perfume has the approval of a (future) Catholic nun. It’s such a comforting scent to me, like being wrapped in a hug. (And whew, somebody remind Father that Communion wine needs to be under 16%, even if he is diluting it in the Eucharist.) Every time I try to put on another perfume-even my other Black Baccara scents-I still keep wishing I was wearing Midnight Mass instead. After Mass, this is the scent that lingers in the church, like incense on your clothes when you sit in the front and the altar boy is feeling the censer swinging a little too much, with almost beeswax-y undertones and faint candle smoke, and while I can’t identify the moss I definitely get a whiff of the wine after the initial incense scent settles after application. This fragrance is spot on (though my Sunday solemn Mass uses a less frankincense heavy incense) to my favorite church, which was built in the 1850s and still has the heavy wooden pews original to the building. I am entering formation to become a religious sister-so I spend a lot of time at church.
