Before trying it I read reviews comparing it to Baccarat Rouge bathed in white chocolate. It makes sense regarding the behaviour but the scent is different for me. It reminds me more of a Queenie from Mindgames with tobacco or a Tobacco Vanille that is much more vanilla creamy and soft with fewer spices. It’s a very soft tobacco mixed with sweet and creamy notes (I haven’t tried Tobacolor so I don’t know if it resembles it). Unlike many tobacco perfumes it’s not strong or intrusive. It’s sweet but not cloying airy present in the background with occasional bursts creating a sweet and elegant aura. It lasts quite a while and people notice it although it causes me olfactory fatigue and soon I can’t smell it. I think I should test it more in different conditions to see its real performance but for now I consider it very versatile perfect as a signature scent or for everyday wear.
Before trying it I read several reviews referring to its resemblance to Baccarat Rouge after being bathed in white chocolate. Certainly I can understand the comparison especially regarding its behaviour although for me the scent is quite different. The scent reminds me more of a Queenie from Mindgames with tobacco or a Tobacco Vanille that is much more vanilla creamy soft and less spiced. In short it is a very soft tobacco mixed with sweet and creamy notes (I haven’t tried Tobacolor so I don’t really know if it resembles it). However unlike most tobacco perfumes it is not a strong or intrusive scent. It is a sweet scent but not cloying. An airy scent which is there but always in the background giving occasional bursts and creating a sweet but elegant aura around. It lasts quite a while and people can feel it although it causes me quite a bit of olfactory fatigue and after a short time I can’t smell it. I think I need to test it more and better and in different conditions to be able to see its real performance but above all I would say it is a very versatile perfume perfect as a signature scent and to accompany you in everyday activities.
Unique in its class. Intoxicating and addictive. That note of caramel with black and white chocolate plum and ambroxan musk. Very little tobacco note. UNIQUE. Nothing like Tobacolor. Moonlight is playful all-rounder with excellent longevity and a wide sillage.
Something very curious happened to me with this perfume. I can’t smell it. It’s the first time I haven’t been able to smell a perfume. Besides I gave it to a friend to smell and she said the same thing that she can’t smell it either. So I’ve left it for a while to see if things change and if not I’ll put it up for sale. EDIT: What a Perfumon I love this type of scent this is exactly what I expected from this perfume you can smell the tobacco but a sweet tobacco with chocolate and plum I also sense the musky and woody part. It’s 90% like Dior’s Tobacolor I went to buy Tobacolor as it was on my list and when I smelled it again it was so similar to this that I finally didn’t buy it.
Something strange happened to me: it smells like nothing. Neither I nor a friend who tried it could smell it. I left it for a while to see if it changes otherwise I’ll sell it. EDIT: What a Perfumon! I love this scent it’s exactly what I was looking for. You can smell the tobacco but sweet with chocolate and plum and that musky and woody base. It’s 90% like Dior’s Tobacolor. I went to buy it because it was on my list but when I smelled it again so similar to this I finally didn’t buy it.
It reminds me of everything and nothing at the same time. It’s like a sweet bomb a chocolate truffle filled with candied fruits. It’s a temptation made into perfume: sexy wild mature and provocative. It makes me think of Baccarat Rouge bathed in white chocolate but in my opinion this version is improved.
It reminds me of many things without resembling anything. A sweet bomb a chocolate truffle filled with candied fruits. This is a temptation made into perfume. Sexy wild mature and provocative. I do think of Baccarat Rouge… bathed in white chocolate. In my opinion improved.
Comforting sexy and quite gourmand but without being childish. Perfect for chilly weather. It has superb performance in both projection and longevity.
