Oh, what a shame! Can you possibly exchange it?

Well I made a mistake of putting it on a list of requested perfumes for my sister, for my birthday. And she picked it of all three perfumes to get me. I never tried it before putting it on the list but did after and it was too late.

I don’t hate it, and now that it “fell from the sky” I am using it but I am not crazy about it. I imagined a much stronger and expected a perfume with a stronger character. This one fades fast and does not seem to have a distinguished smell.

Even though I like the perfume, I can’t help that every time I put it on, it makes me feel sad. Perhaps it’s the dark side of it, the “midnight” element haha and I am not much of a night owl. It’s just that some fragrances make me feel good and happy, and others, no matter how well they are done, put me in a lousy mood. What a shame Midnight Poison, I must look for a good home for my big bottle.

Oh good for you! It is always a bliss to find a fragrance that I would like to wear everyday for more than three months. I have also been considering getting Midnight Poison, and though it is more fashionable than Hypnotic Poison, the latter is slightly more pleasing to my nose. I agree with the thread that points out that floral-fruity with clean patchouli seems to be the trend now (I think it started with Coco Mlle) – YSL Elle and CD Midnight Poison caught my attention at about the same time.

Glad to see someone likes Pure Poison though I cannot appreciate its appeal. My choice of Poison (in descending order would be Hypnotic, Midnight, the original, Tendre, and Pure).

Interesting! I can see where you find the similarities, but I pretty much hated Midnight Fantasy and really like the Midnight Poison — so they're at least different enough that you might like one & not the other

It is funny how Britney Spears' Curious gets mentioned, becuase Dior's Midnight Posion actually reminds me a lot of Britney's Midnight Fantasy. The colour, the name, and even the juices bear an uncanny resemblance to each other – the plum-ey sweetness with florals and clean patchouli. Go smell them and you will know what I mean! But while I was tempted to buy Midnight Fantasy, I couldn't bring myself to get a celebrity scent, I may well consider buying MP.

I just recently got Midnight Poison and it has become my second fav of the Poison series after Pure Poison. It is seductive, mysterious and intriguing. I am definitely glad I bought it!

Antidote was taken by Viktor & Rolf, so they'll have to stick with Remedy! There was a funny thread here awhile back w/ suggestions for the next women's Poison, but can't remember where. Like “Waking Remedy”

Oh! On a bizarre non-sequitur, what do you think a good name for a male Poison would be? Would we keep the same format of a named Poison? Or would it be different?

I would make the male equivalent a Remedy or Antidote, just to play off of the name Poison that is associated with Dior's “sensual woman”. For example Hypnotic Poison could have a Waking Remedy for Men, Tendre Posion could have a Rough Remedy… cures that undo the “affects” or kinds of Posion…

Now it sounds like chemical warfare!

Any comments? Ideas? Just a funny little suggestion!
