by A Lab on Fire
Liquidnight by A Lab on Fire is a complex, aromatic woody fragrance centered around hinoki wood, incense, and vanilla. It opens with zesty lime and saffron, creating a bright, slightly spicy citrus burst that quickly evolves into a smooth, smoky woody base. The hinoki wood provides a crisp, clean green quality that tempers the sweetness of the vanilla, while incense and musk lend depth and a subtle meditative quality. Lavender and sage are present but often subdued, contributing to the fragrance’s aromatic and slightly nebulous character. The scent feels both modern and timeless—mysterious and nocturnal, yet not overpowering. It performs well in the long term, offering moderate longevity and a consistent, elegant sillage that leans moderate and intimate. The fragrance suits both genders, and while some find it straightforwardly appealing, others perceive it as mildly synthetic or chemically dry at times. It’s best worn in cooler seasons, especially autumn and winter, and excels as an evening or night-time scent with a distinct urban, cinematic atmosphere.
