And the universe says "don't push your luck".

First, we have The Candy Butcher, which isn't bad but isn't great on me. It smells like chocolate and dry bones, in chill night air (no other idea how to put it, the only scents I can quantify are chocolate and bone, but it smells cold). It is a very neat effect, but I vastly prefer the simple chocolate of Bliss, which has the advantage of being general catalog as well.

Second, we have Silence. It turns into a thick floral/fruity on me. I can't place the florals but they are heady to the point of being cloying and make my head hurt a bit. The fruit smells mango-ish, under them. I can't do better than that without jamming my nose to my skin for a lot longer than I'm willing to.

And the more I smell Midnight on the Midway, the more sure I am that I don't like it that much. It's not awful, but it's not me. I'm not sure about Gennivre; need to drop that in the 'try again' pile.
