About Midnight Pretenders
Midnight Pretenders by Neil Jacquet: A Floral Unisex Launch for 2026
Neil Jacquet has announced Midnight Pretenders, a floral fragrance designed for both men and women. Created by the perfumer Clément Marx, it is one of the new releases promised for 2026.
The scent takes its cues from cherry blossom, ylang-ylang, sake and oolong tea. With a fresh, sweet and woody character, it offers a refined alternative within contemporary perfumery.
At the top, Midnight Pretenders opens with cherry blossom, ylang-ylang and pink pepper. These notes produce an immediate floral impression, made more interesting by the peppery intensity.
The heart develops around sake, oolong tea and chamomile. Sake brings a certain clarity, while oolong introduces an understated bitterness and chamomile supplies a soothing, aromatic presence.
The base is built on white sandalwood, vetiver and salt. This trio supplies a creamy, earthy and mineral finish, giving the fragrance a smooth and sensual character.
Described by the house as a composition with yellow floral, aromatic and fruity accords, the perfume is sweet without becoming cloying. It feels modern and easy to wear.
With a rating of 4.6 out of 5 from early users, Midnight Pretenders is already making a favourable impression among fragrance enthusiasts.
Best suited to those who appreciate floral fragrances with a twist, this scent will attract wearers who like tea, sake and woody notes. It works well for both day and evening wear, thanks to its balanced nature.
Midnight Pretenders is a promising addition to the Neil Jacquet line. With Clément Marx behind the composition, it delivers an elegant and playful floral with a sophisticated finish.
