Am I the only person who finds humor in some of the names of the scents at Bath and Body Works? Especially one, Midnight Pomegranate. Why midnight? Why not noon? Why pomegranate? Why not avocado? The possibilities are endless. Every time I see the name of this scent, it makes me think of the book title Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil. Then it makes me think of a website I ran across while I was learning about playing the blues - it had a formula for creating a blues musician's name. I think the formula was to use the name of an odd fruit or vegetable and then the name of a dead president. Ex. Cucumber Eisenhower or Kumquat Wilson. I think extra points were given for alliteration - Rhubarb Roosevelt, for example. Anyway, all this runs through my mind when I see "Midnight Pomegranate." Seems like to better sell their product they'd want a potential buyer to picture something restful and relaxing instead.
