Midnight Dahlia

Midnight Dahlia, from the Greek brand Korres, is a woody fragrance with sweet, floral, ambery and citrus sides that about half of the people who describe it pick out. Released in 2020 and worn by anyone, it sits between a fruity floral and a warm wood.

Raspberry and lychee open the fruit side, juicy and lightly tart, and bergamot adds a touch of brightness. Dahlia and peony form the floral heart, soft and fresh rather than heavy, while a sugary, candy-like sweetness runs alongside them. Underneath, cedar and patchouli give a dry, slightly earthy woodiness that anchors the composition, and amber adds a smooth, warm glow to the finish.

The contrast of candied fruit and flowers against darker woods gives Midnight Dahlia a playful but grounded character. It should appeal to people who like sweet, fruity scents but want something with more weight and a woody, evening-friendly base.
