Is Midnight in Paris still in production?+−
No, this fragrance has been discontinued by Van Cleef & Arpels. It has become increasingly difficult to find, often appearing only on secondary markets and among collectors.
How does the Eau de Parfum compare to the Eau de Toilette version?+−
The Eau de Parfum is denser, creamier, and more focused on the base notes of tonka and amber. It offers superior longevity compared to the EDT, which is perceived as slightly brighter and more fleeting.
Is this a good choice for hot weather?+−
Generally, no. The sweet, powdery, and leathery accords are best suited for fall and winter. In high summer heat, the heavy tonka bean and amber can become overly cloying.
Does this fragrance smell like "old-fashioned" powder?+−
While it is classified as a powdery scent, it feels modern rather than cosmetic or "vintage." The powderiness comes from the tonka and balsam, giving it a smooth, resinous texture rather than a floral or talcum-heavy feel.
