Celebrity perfumes have a bad reputation in the fragrance industry. Although, this clearly does not apply when it comes to the reigning queen of everything—Beyoncé—as the icon’s ‘Heat’ collection recently became the greatest-selling celebrity fragrance brand to date.
‘Midnight Heat’ is the third fragrance of the collection and mixes sweet notes with sensual ones that range from Armenian plum and queen of the night black tulip to patchouli for an overall confident and mysterious blend. A great daytime scent, it is light enough for the office, but not overly sweet or floral. The muskier elements keep it sophisticated enough to carry you into happy hour or a post-work dinner date. Available at Target. —Angela Bobo
