About This Perfume
Midnight Pretenders by Neil Jacquet is a Floral fragrance for women and men. This is a new fragrance. Midnight Pretenders was launched in 2026. The nose behind this fragrance is Clément Marx. Top notes are Cherry Blossom, Ylang Ylang and Pink Pepper; middle notes are Sake, Oolong tea and Chamomile; base notes are White Sandalwood, Vetiver and Salt. "This fragrance, an Extrait de Parfum, is a nocturnal anthem about romantic illusion and the masks we wear after dark. Midnight Pretenders captures a night of lovesick nostalgia under the Tokyo moonlight, among cherry blossoms - an evening of beautiful excess, lived to forget the love of a lifetime. The fragrance opens luminous and almost transparent (cherry blossom, ylang, pink pepper), before giving way to a warmer, more intimate truth underneath (sandalwood, salt, vetiver) - the gap between what is shown and what is felt." -Neil Jacquet.
