Midnight Wedding from Sorce’s Special Order Perfume Review


Decided to be adventurous and try another special order Sorce perfume that doesn’t get talked about often. Midnight Wedding seems to be a bergamot and oud themed fragrance. I like bergamot, Ambroxan, and patchouli so I think I will like this. Midnight Wedding is available to order from Sorce during November and special order windows. I purchased this in oil format last month from Ajevie. This fragrance is classified as an earthy woods.

Notes: Bergamot, oud, patchouli, sandalwood, tonka bean, Ambroxan

I am glad I like bergamot because it is definitely quite prominent in this. I feel like that is a very popular top note so it doesn’t surprise me or feel out of place. The bergamot blends nicely with what I think is the oud but I am not at all familiar with oud. It is woody, a little spicy, and prominently incense. This dry woodiness might also be contributed by the sandalwood and patchouli. Typically, I tend to dislike sandalwood because it is usually a strong sweet creamy synthetic note but I don’t get that here. Then at the end, there is a salty skin note that must be the ambroxan. This is definitely masculine which is a first for me for something from Sorce, though I have never tried Vampire Husband. It makes me think of a nice cologne, one you would borrow from a partner because you like the smell of it but isn’t something you would think to buy for yourself. I enjoyed smelling this throughout the day and the profile stayed pretty similar the entire time. It has a cozy vibe to it, like those flannel scented candles.

Looking it up to confirm since the perfume is available right now so the listing is up: This perfume was created for Caitlyn Hayes’s husband.

“This one was created for my husband, who loves woody and earthy scents. Perfect for those who love a masculine- or unisex-leaning fragrance.” I took this from the description on the site, these listings go down when they aren’t available anymore which is kinda a bummer when you’re looking for it during 11 out of 12 months.

I like this more than I thought I would but I don’t know how often I would end up wearing this, personally.
