Fun Things Always Happen After Sunset, from By Kilian was released in 2019. The perfumer behind this creation is Calice Becker. It has the top notes of Black Currant and Green Notes, middle notes of Lychee and Rose, and base notes of Musk and Patchouli.
Almost every fibre of my being wants to dismiss this fragrance as some more fruity BS, which is supposed to be all playful and daring but is actually just not a very good perfume. I did say ‘almost’ because the great big, gurgling, sweet toothed, child inside me, can’t help but embrace this perfume and want to give it a great big hug and take it home with me. Also… ‘not a very good perfume’ isn’t true either, I don’t recall smelling anything like this, I’m no expert on these fruity, femme marketed florals but I’ve not smelled anything like this. It’s exotic and fruity in a way usually reserved for tropical tropes and beats you’ve smelled before. If this is the lychee accord then it’s really lovely. In fact I hadn’t had a lychee for years until the pandemic came and we were all at home and that, I got some super exotic fruit basket delivered, with a mix of shit I couldn’t even pronounce and the lychee (and similar) were AMAZING!!! So tasty and fragrant. Anyway, this is a really well constructed scent, dries down to a gorgeous rounded, soft musk too. Not my style, but from an amateur perfumery point of view fascinating fruity accord and minimal, modern structure I like. I enjoyed it overall.
