by Solstice Scents
Midnight Marquee is a bold, atmospheric perfume with a strong leather and gasoline base that quickly settles into a complex, deep composition. The opening is intense and immediately recognizable—like a motorbike garage mixed with earthy moss and warm vanilla. While the gasoline note is noticeable, it reads more as an oily, inky petroleum tone rather than a harsh chemical smell, blending seamlessly with leather, tobacco, and a soft musky sweetness. The vanilla is subtle but vital, adding a balancing warmth that prevents the scent from feeling purely aggressive or masculine. The fragrance develops into a layered, full-bodied scent that evokes noir mystery, cinema, or a windswept autumn night. It’s well-blended, elegant, and feels high-end despite its rich, complex character. Its strength and depth make it ideal for evening wear in cooler seasons, particularly winter or autumn.
