Midnight Iris by The Body Shop delivers a warmly layered, powdery iris with a soft gourmand glow. The opening is gentle and almost incense-like—light bergamot and lotus raise a delicate veil before the heart unfolds with iris, lily-of-the-valley, and clary sage, lending a mineral-soft floral elegance. The base is a sweet, creamy musk built around sandalwood and tonka bean, creating an intimate, cozy warmth that lingers close to the skin. It feels like a sunset stroll through an antique bookshop filled with vintage floral treasures, where dried petals and warm woods blend into a luminous, personal aura. The scent is most effective in the evening, suiting winter and autumn, and though longevity is modest, many note it remains faintly present for several hours. It stands out from other white musk scents—being gentler, deeper, and more complex—making it a favorite among those seeking something soft, elegant, and quietly romantic.
