I see on youtube, parfumo, and fragrantica reviews that this one (I’m wearing today) just gets a lot of hate. Wanted to hear from some of you more experienced gents (and lady) in the hobby why this is. “Not original” or “too simple” are the main complaints but if a fragrance smells good, you feel good in it, and it pulls compliments… why the hate?

Ok… you’ll be reading the words of a patsy. A sucker. A victim of scam and fraud. But the outcome is a blessing of knowledge going forward in purchases of any kind- do your due diligence. It’s been an emotional few months and details can be shared after, but I was looking forward to Midnight Sin and if you’ve read my posts, you know this was a big deal for me. Hours after the announcement of Midnight Sin seen on Instagram, I came across DefiniteOf’s post featuring Daniel genuinely excited and proud about the collaboration. I placed my order through the link provided and shortly after began receiving updates from support@definiteof. Tracking showed the package originating in Carbonia, moving through Venice and customs in Italy, then shipping to the U.S. on 4/25. It cleared customs on 4/30, arrived at a shipping partner on 5/2, departed on 5/5, and was finally marked delivered to me on 5/9 at 10:41 AM. When I arrived at my girlfriend’s apartment Saturday afternoon, I found a heavily scuffed package sitting outside the door. The label was damaged, but I could still make out my name and address. I opened it expecting Midnight Sin and disappointed that it was a bag- not a box. What I found instead disappointment in a fragrance called WarmKiss. The packaging was mangled, though thankfully the bottle itself survived intact without shards of broken glass hurting anyone. The problem is: I never ordered this fragrance. Not from a niche retailer, not from Temu, not from SHEIN — nowhere. Naturally, confusion set in over the entire weekend and yesterday morning, I checked my email again and saw the notification from support@definiteof saying my package had been delivered. When I contacted them explaining I had not received Midnight Sin, I was then sent information showing the shipment originated from China — not Italy, as the original tracking indicated. At this point, anger was felt. A feel good gift to myself is all I wanted and it was a scam. I sent screenshots of everything sent to me and told them to rectify this- send me what I paid for. This morning, they thanked me and offered $7 credit. Trustpilot is full of complaints against them and I’m angry about being out of some money.
