Midnight Rain

Out of all the guava-forward perfumes out there, this one easily stands among the best. It’s pretty straightforward: juicy guava, soft white florals, and clean musk, all resting on an earthy patchouli backbone. Don’t let the dark bottle fool you, it’s surprisingly easygoing (even bubbly) and makes a great everyday wear.

I won't even try to explain how exceptional this perfume was. All I can say is that if it wasn't discontinued I would never stop buying it again and again.

I received this as a birthday gift a long time ago. I still have it, and it’s one of my all-time favorites. I really wish it hadn’t been discontinued, It's so good and such a special scent. Want to find something like this so that I can use it with good conscience.

It looks and sounds magic. The name and the bottle are stunning! But around 1000 dollars on Ebay?🙈

The composition here is highly luminous, offering a refined, unique experience. It’s a sweet, romantic, and fruity-fresh profile, managing its sweetness masterfully so it never smells syrupy or sticky. The fragrance is housed in a bottle that really catches the eye, and the performance is exceptional, offering huge lasting power throughout the day. The major downside that keeps this from being a perfect 10/10 is the exorbitant price.

I came here for reminiscing this scent I was crazy for, since it was discontinued few years ago, and now I'm realizing what treasure I've had back then. I still remember the sharp sweet fruity opening, guava made it so unique, then plum blossom and orchid deepened it to a dark, sexy, edgy headturner mix. I was in love with the dark glittery bottle, and this scent was a nighttime magnet. I don't know why I was so attracted to mature deep scents in my early twenties, but I remember that I used 3 bottles straight from this. Actually wearing this was quite cloying, had a quite strong projection. I think in 2010's there weren't hundredthousand million perfumes on the market, it was easier to create unique ones. Now we are overwhelmed with creations, so I'm sure these days, it wouldn't be able to stand out from the crowd like it did back then.

Midnight Rain smells nice, sweet but not cloying. Like many perfumes from the early 2000s, has creamy patchouli base, but this one is more delicate in many aspects. Not unique but pretty.

I have a sealed bottle of this extremely rare beauty for sale. Pm if interested!

There are no words I could use to truly describe how enchanting and mystical this fragrance is. My partner managed to find an unused bottle for a reasonable price for my birthday, and I think my life has been changed. The initial spray is quite powdery, but a lovely floral smell pushes forward after it dries. Sweet guava is the star and is delicately carried by a smooth, caramel and patchouli base. It flows so easy on the inhale. So sweet and magical, unlike anything I've ever smelled. Don't even get me started on the packaging, I am obsessed with this bottle. This would absolutely be my signature scent if it were still in production, but I must control myself and save for special occasions. I hope to be buried with this bottle so if there is any chance at an afterlife, I can take the rest there.

Definitely the best I've ever had. Im puzzled why la prairie discontinued , their cellular mist was amazing ( also discontinued ). Hope some high quality brand does something similar. I've never smelled anything similar , and trust me I've tried !

Someone please tell me where I could get a decant of this or if you are willing to send me a decant, please message me! I want to try this so badly!

This and silver rain are my all time favorite fragrances. If I could only wear these two the rest of my life, I would. I absolutely love the uniqueness and the aura midnight rain gives. Sweet and warm guava. Salted caramel and patchouli. The musk. Oh these girls bring back memories. Update: I finally got a 50ml new from eBay. I will update once she’s delivered. I hope she has preserved well

Well well well… if it isn’t my squirrel brain telling me I need to buy this cause it’s a pretty sparkly bottle 🤦🏻♀️

Tropical and sweet. I can easily smell guava in that one. The smell of this perfume also reminds me of Pez candy’s. Bottle is gorgeous, like a tear mixed with black mascara and eyeshadow glitters.

Such a surprise. When I saw the bottle design which is indeed very unique it also reminded me of a bit of a cheap idea that tries to get away with packaging. Intrigued by the mountain of reviews I got my hands on a bottle which in reality is truly amazing because it sparkles so beautifully. This scent, next to Toujours Moi and L'Iris de Fath my favorite. It starts very fruity for a few minutes. Then the flowers push to the front. The dry down is just a dream. I also smell vanilla for some reason. It is a mystical scent which you will follow with your nose and eyes if it passes you on the street. I am watching myself taking little sniffs at my wrist during the day and have to smile. It is a very refreshing, lovely sweetish scent that doesn't fly off but sticks around without being straight in your face. The dry down after half an hour stays pretty stable and it is a mix of many scents: patchouli, vanilla, musk, skin scent but fresh. Really really well done. Beautiful experience.My husband loves it. *I am new to the world of scents, I have a good nose, great insides but still learning the right words for it. Stay with me (: *

They always discontinue the good ones.

Very sweet floral pineapple juice with patchouli

If you want to find something similar to this, the DKNY Stories EdP is a good option!

This is my absolute FAVOURITE perfume ever. Smells amazing... was so gutted it got discontinued. I started wearing Calvin Klein Forbidden Euphoria which smells very similar but that got discontinued too, so now trying Euphoria Intense ( a combo of original Euphoria & Forbidden. ) If anyone knows where I can find a really similar scent to Midnight Rain do let me know as it’s the most beau studio, sensual smell & I always got so many compliments when wearing.

This one is a dream. It's warm rain in a dusky forest- all those top fruit notes and musky bases everyone speaks about. The bottle itself is a work of art. It's a very nostalgic smell, and I'm sure most feel similarly, but to me, it's particularly reminiscent of my childhood. This was my mother's go-to scent, and the smell evokes memories of glimmering 2000-era dresses and sparkling dinners later in the evening than a child ever thought was possible. When she died unexpectedly two years ago, I found two unopened bottles of Midnight Rain in her dresser. What an unimaginable treasure and a completely heart-wrenching find it was. I break it out for the rarest, most special occasions, because it is truly a unique and covetable scent.

Beautifully crafted and calming scent, truly mesmerizing.

Magic in the bottle! Accordant to scent, even the bottle is gorgeous together with box. Mystical black bottle in the water drop shape, all covered with glitters that shines strongly, in its simplicity it will still be the most striking bottle on the shelf. Scent very rich, greatly rounded, I get mostly combination of fruity notes and flowers with patchouli as undernote wich makes it more stable. Many users say that they get ecstatic feeling sniffing this perfume, which tells that composition is real masterpiece. The price for this scent has always been high, even then when it was available, nowdays it's very very rare and it's logical to be pricey, but when we look objectively and compare Midnight Rain price with prices of many niche and indie perfumes, which are usually much higher than Midnight Rain price, we could say that the price is absolutely realistic, here you get super rarity and one of the most desired women's perfumes ever, otherwise niche perfumes that are even more expensive are only one more in the row...

A tropical fruit cocktail mixed with delicately sweet old-fashioned face powder. I have a full bottle of this discontinued perfume. It is a pleasant smell but sugar-cube sweet and fruity with the powdery base and very poor longevity. The guava note stands out. I like it but it's overly sweet and I much prefer a more mature, complex and woody womanly scent. I think the sweet notes could have been toned down and the perfume would have benefited from the addition of cedar at the base. I agree with another reviewer that it doesn't suit its name - this is more of a warm Summer evening perfume or tropical shower.

This is NOT a floral fruity scent, I'd definitely put it into the floral woody musk category. I used to own this one, it was a gift from a special person. This scent is beautiful, unique, sexy. Why was this (with all the other best perfumes) discontinued...???

I got a miniature from my aunt as a gift. I loved the scent so much that I went to buy a full sized bottle in a sale for 60$. Only to realize that the perfume is rare and sold for much more. I am using only the miniature for very special occasions, while the package with the full sized bottle is standing on my shelf. The scent is so luxurious and unique (+hard to find and expensive) that using it daily would feel like a waste for me.

I miss this fragrance. My mum used to wear silver rain which I loved as well

Scored this sealed NIB for $47 at a garage sale - I was very ambivalent on this at first. I'm now on my third wearing, I'm finding it's grown on me quite a bit. It's warm and sweet without giving me any sense that I'm risking type 2 diabetes by wearing it. It's a bit unique, I don't think I have anything in my collection quite like it. On my skin, the fruit and patchouli seem to balance out without either winning or losing a battle, and a few times I can smell the plum blossom throwing an NBA-style elbow, trying to make it's presence known. My skin devours even beast-mode scents like Dior's Midnight Poison, Mugler's Muse and YSL's Opium in 2 hours or less, but I suspect this scent performs well for most wearers, as it has all the same earmarks as others in the BIG and LOUD category (wink-wink to the Angel lovers reading this).

I am usually not the biggest fan of fruity floral, but this one takes the cake. I have a fairly large collection, and this is one I save for special occasions. It has a dark, jammy scent that is sooo addicting. It lasts very long also. Highly recommended if you can find it for a reasonable price.

To me a very nice scent, very strong at the beginning but turning into a very warm scent, on my skin I can smell choicolate.

for me, its a mix from dolce gabanna light blue and good girl carolina herrera. nice and sexy combo!!
