Despite the bottle, this one isn’t about apple. Delicious Night is a floriental “inspired by the sexy buzz of New York City at night”, and it has the notes to match. The opening is a jolt of citrus and blackberry; it is strong, diffusive, extremely sweet, and as promised, ice cold. The crushed ginger makes a brief appearance, and helps to cut all the sugar, but it’s almost gone by the time we get to the floral notes and they are very nearly as sweet as the opening. As is the recent fashion, the whole thing is draped over a darker, drier, but resolutely clean and smooth base (neither the patchouli nor the vetiver are particularly earthy), enlivened here by a smidgen of incense. Still, a good deal of the sweetness lingers on through the dry down.
