Blue Moon
Fragrance notes
Blue Moon opens with a bright raspberry note that feels juicy and immediate. Bergamot and mandarin orange add a sharp citrus edge, while cardamom and nutmeg bring a dry, aromatic heat that keeps the fruit from leaning too sweet. Elemi contributes a resinous lift that makes the entrance feel airy rather than heavy.
The heart settles into a clean white floral blend. Lily-of-the-valley and freesia lead with a crisp, dewy character, while rose and jasmine add softness without becoming heady. Orris smooths the transition and gives the middle a faintly powdery texture that bridges the spice from the top to the warmth of the base.
Ambergris and tonka bean form a rounded, amber-rich foundation. Musk keeps the drydown close and skin-like, avoiding the heaviness that often accompanies sweet oriental compositions. The overall impression is fruity and citrus-driven at first, then floral, then warm and slightly powdery. It suits cooler days and evening wear, especially for those who enjoy spice alongside fresh fruit. People who prefer dark, woody scents without any floral or citrus elements will find little to appreciate here. The accord list captures the balance well, with citrus, white floral, amber, and fruity notes all playing clear roles.
