It smells like a baby’s bottom! It’s super powdery, like magical baby powder, innocent and tender.
I had it in the 90s and remember it with great affection. I still have the bottle and it remains just as beautiful.
I love it! The bottle is gorgeous and the velvety scent absolutely fascinates me.
It’s a pure treasure, simply put. The royal blue bottle with stars and the sun does it justice. It smells clean, pure, and very classy. The longevity is good, but since it’s no longer made, if you see it, buy two bottles!
What a pity, Paloma12 🙁 … I must say I share your opinion. This perfume was tried to be sold to me more than once in the nineties, as if it was “for young girls” hehe… but I never liked it. It reminded me of a lady dyed blonde, red or jet black with a bouffant of over 8 cm, straightened by force with L’Oreal Finesse hairspray (smells identical, at least to the nineties hairspray). I don’t know if the hairspray is still made or if it still smells the same, but… well.
I just bought it, swept away by the reviews. Very lovely luxury bottle, but the perfume on the skin for the first minute smells like market perfume, cheap. That scent lasts half an hour and then disappears like the wind. I’m left with no scent at all, what a pity as I bought it very excitedly 🙁
Starting with that dreamy bottle, Sun Moon Star is intoxicating… The sad thing is they no longer make it, but I love it…
What a shame, Paloma12… I agree with you. In the 90s they tried to sell me this perfume several times, saying it was ‘for young girls’, hehe… but I never liked it. It brought to mind a woman dyed blonde, red or black, with a bouffant of over 8 cm, well straightened by Finesse L’Oreal lacquer (it smells identical, at least to the 90s lacquer). I don’t know if they still make that lacquer or if it still smells the same, but… well, that’s all.
It smells warm, simple, sweet and slightly powdery. I used it in the 90s and do you know who liked it most? Men. There was a guy who, while with his girlfriend, interrupted me to ask what my perfume was. It’s not my favourite or the sexiest, but I remember it with affection and the little bottle was so lovely.
It smells warm, simple, slightly sweet and a bit powdery. I wore it in the nineties and did you know who liked it most??? Men. There was a guy who, while out with his girlfriend, interrupted me to ask what perfume I was wearing. It’s not my favourite fragrance nor the super sexy scent, but I remember it with great affection and the little bottle was so cute 🙂
A nineties classic; I have the empty bottle because it’s a gem. It brings back memories of my adolescence and youth; its mere presence lifts my spirits. Now and then, I catch a whiff of its scent on the cap, a exquisite reminiscence. Nowadays it smells creamy oriental, with white flowers and a slightly powdery fruity note. Sophia Grojsman is the nose behind this perfume, who also created a great classic like YSL Paris. Sun Moon Stars came out under Karl Lagerfeld’s wing, so it’s no small feat. Unfortunately, it’s discontinued. For me, it evokes a night in a forest with the moon reflected in a lake, surrounded by daffodils, jasmine and orange blossom with vanilla. It was a charm, a favourite perfume of my life, not just of the moment. –If anyone can get hold of one or provide info on country, city or website, please let me know–
I loved the bottle and the perfume was very special. It’s a pity it’s no longer available in Chile. UPDATE: I finally found it, but I have changed or they reformulated it because I can no longer stand it; it smells very powdery and floral. I keep it only for the bottle, which is very pretty.
I didn’t realise how beautiful it was. One weekend, working on a trip, I saw an old perfumery with wooden display cases and colourful bottles. On entering, I saw a red Opium and then this talisman; I knew there were beautiful things there. The owner, a 75-year-old lady, talked to me for two hours about the scents of the past. I found unimaginable treasures and lamented not having more money, but promised to return. The conversation and lost treasures became a new adventure. I bought a small bottle of Sun Moon Stars to remember other eras. Now I smell it and it reminds me of a doll, sweet and slightly plastic, like the hair of my cousin’s Barbies. It reminds me of Eternity Womanity. It has pineapples, peaches and bergamot, citrus and sweet, but lasts only a few minutes and sometimes has a green note, like newly sprouted leaves. Then the flowers explode: jasmine, orange blossom, narcissus and a white lily, followed by vanilla, amber and musk. It’s potent but not cloying. It seeks to recreate a stellar state, innocent yet sexy, a neon stage. It made me think of The Fifth Element with Mila Jovovich. First it’s sweet and citrusy, then powerful flowers and finally warm spices. The trail is medium to potent. I wear it on my wrist and can smell it at 30 cm. In its dry down, it’s very similar to Kenzo’s Kashaya.
I couldn’t remember what beauty this perfume hid. One weekend, for work, I went to a nearby town and in an old perfumery with wooden display cases and colourful bottles, I found treasures from another era. I spotted a red Opium and knew there were treasures there. The owner, a charming 75-year-old lady, talked to me for two hours about the scents of the past. I bought a small bottle of Sun Moon Stars to remember. It smells like a doll, sweet and slightly plastic, like the hair of my cousin’s Barbies. It reminds me of Eternity Womanity. It has pineapples, peaches and bergamots, a citrusy and sweet opening. But it lasts only a few minutes and sometimes smells of freshly cut fruit with leaves. Then the flowers explode: jasmine, orange blossom, narcissus and a milky lily. Followed by vanilla, amber and musk. It is potent and heavy, but not cloying. It aims to recreate a starry state, innocent yet sexy, a neon and fake stars scene. It made me think of ‘The Fifth Element’ with Mila Jovovich saving the world in plastic. Sun Moon Stars is like that: a woman who created something new for a 90s scene that watched the new millennium with curiosity. First fruity and sweet citrus, then powerful flowers and finally warm spices. The trail is medium to potent. I applied it to my wrist and can smell it at 30 cm. I don’t know the longevity yet, but its dry-down is very similar to Kenzo’s Kashaya.
They gave it to me and I liked it for that 90s vibe, both of the bottle and the scent. I recall it was quite floral with a fruity-sweet touch. It had good longevity and was intoxicating, with that old-school feel of a mature woman without smelling elderly.
This perfume is among my top 10 favourites, not just for the scent and longevity, but for its magical packaging. I bought it years ago and loved it instantly. Then I stopped visiting Argentina and lost it by chance. I managed to get it back… it is very much a 90s aroma and brings back lovely memories.
If you were a child in the 90s, you couldn’t have missed this rare bottle. The scent is hypnotic and makes you want to uncover its mystery. Upon application, it first smells of juicy pineapple and ripe peach, then vanilla, clove and water lily. It evokes the night, that magical darkness of the stars. Its base features creamy sandalwood, musk and warm amber. Over time it becomes more orange; although the ingredients lose intensity, they still add beauty. The vanilla is noticeable if you look for it. It resembles Calvin Klein’s Eternity, but Sophia made it creamier and more woody than the original. In my opinion, she improved the formula. It is enchanting and intriguing.
Sun Moon and Stars, a classic of the 90s. I can only say I ‘pass’, I can’t handle this perfume, it makes me feel sick. Back in the 90s one of my cousins used it during hot weather (Mexicali, summer with over 45°C). You can imagine, I felt something coming back from my stomach to my throat. What it evokes for me is something sweet, too sweet, synthetic, dusty but very strange, I can’t identify any note or find phases, perhaps I’m traumatised by the horrible first impression I had in my childhood and from then on my nose has blocked it. A few days ago a miniature arrived and I think I’ll only keep it for my collection; I don’t think I can use it. I must admit the little bottle is exquisite and I love the concept; as you know, the perception of each perfume is very personal and I in no way wish to offend those who like it, it’s just my opinion. Perhaps in time and giving it a third opportunity, I may appreciate its beauty.
Exquisite, divine. I’ll never understand why they discontinued it. At least Eternity still exists, with which it has great similarity, especially in the mid-phase, but I agree with Selene that Grojsman had improved the formula in Sun Moon Stars, achieving a cleaner and clearer perfume than Eternity. Could there have been some dispute between brands over that similarity? The bottle is also lovely; I gifted it to my mother twice, who loves the art of bottles in high perfumery. The only thing I don’t like is the name, very long and difficult to pronounce if one does not have fluency with English.
I’ve finally managed to get 40 ml of this perfume after so many years and at an affordable price, I’m so happy!
This perfume was a gift from my mother a few years ago. Although it is sweet and we didn’t like it entirely, one must recognise that it is beautiful for those who love sweet aromas, and its trail not being too strong makes it perfect for select tastes. The bottle is beautiful! I fell in love with the finish, a work of art for those who love those scents.
I’ve just managed to get 50 ml of this discontinued treasure that I barely remembered the scent of, and I must agree that it is very similar to Eternity. I hope to try it over the next few days to see how the longevity is.
The perfume is wonderful. I was lucky enough to buy a cream and perfume set of 50 ml, and afterwards found the 100 ml version at such a low price it was almost a gift. They are original and smell delicious. Here in Ecuador it is hardly found, but I had the fortune of finding two due to a shortage of one.
Exquisite. Sun, Moon, Stars alongside Dior Dolce Vita and Le Roy Soleil Dalí is my favourite 90s late-afternoon of fruity woods and possibly one of the best Grojsman fragrances from an already excellent catalogue. Perfumery doesn’t matter beyond the scent itself, but Sophia Grojsman stands tall among the greatest beauty creators of all time, signing masterpieces in the shadows. Is it not unfair that architects or musicians are recognised, while scent creators who make us relive moments have no face attached? Sophia is outstanding. How can you tell she signed it when you try it? How do you handle peach as the house emblem and ensure that in every launch, stone fruits smell different? In Sun Moon Stars, what was lustful liquor in other works becomes hazy and delicate, a restraint on the verge of overflowing, immaculate and mystical. It’s so exquisite that one wants to cry when smelling that rich sweetness mist and delicate childish brushstrokes, a creamy and spicy twinge that hurts the soul because it can’t be that there exists a scent so beautiful, pure and innocent. Sun Moon Stars is a Grojsman tour de force that advances and modifies previous fruits; here there is no peach with the satin briefs taste of Poeme, nor the tarot deck taste of Champagne, nor the cherubic of Kashaya, nor the earthy of Sotto Voce, nor the spicy floral of Eternity and Vandebilt… this is a new peach and smells of country angels, constellations, zodiac symbols coming to life, a juice that is not French by birth but very Frenchified and rich, also boasting a touch of baroque childish innocence. Every time I try it, it recreates in my mind something that makes me think of that Creole New Orleans, French, Spanish, African and esoteric. The notes are built on luminous foundations that enhance the sensation of smelling a pleasant dream… even during its evolution, it has a hazy, dancing and ghostly consistency. We are talking about a fragrance set in hundreds of filtered chords that are a whisper, sweet, woody, floral, fruity and spicy with a finish of fairy dust, a delicate talc like a baby’s breath and yet powerful, with a thousand nuances. A God of Olympus, an Avatar alien, a courtier in the time of Marie Antoinette, or a Louisiana mestiza with black skin and a white suit could wear it. In the Prado there is a painting by Rubens titled ‘The Birth of the Milky Way’, where Hera lets a stream of milk escape while breastfeeding Hercules; from those drops the Milky Way was born… that is what Sun Moon Stars smells like, to magic and legends. To say it feels expensive is an understatement, to say it leaves you to dream is also… I personally couldn’t use it because I would be bewitched until I couldn’t walk down the street, enchanted by its sweet talc scent that can’t be of this world. I keep a few vials and minis, from time to time I spray two drops on my hand and it never fails, there comes a moment when my eyes twist as if for Saint Teresa in ecstasy, because this, friends, is a bloody masterpiece.
It’s stunning. Alongside Dior Dolce Vita and Le Roy Soleil Dalí, it’s my favourite fruity wood fragrance from the 90s. Sophia Grojsman is a master who creates works of art in the shadows. With Sun Moon Stars, what was once intense becomes delicate and mystical, a haze of sweetness that hurts the soul for how beautiful it is. It smells like Creole angels and constellations, a rich, Frenchified juice with a touch of baroque innocence. It reminds me of New Orleans, a blend of cultures. It’s a luminous, dancing, ghostly dream. Anyone could wear it, from a goddess to a woman from Louisiana. It smells like magic and legends, like the Milky Way. It’s a masterpiece that enchants you so much you wouldn’t dare walk down the street. I keep several vials and occasionally try it, and my eyes twist with ecstasy.
For me, it’s a memory of my mother.
Fruits, flowers, and more fruits and flowers, all mixed together to make you explode with energy and sensuality; day or night, to shine at an endless party of incredible stars. That is ‘Sun Moon Stars’, no exaggeration. A beautifully crafted perfume from the 90s, vibrant until the last drop, which made me immensely happy for a long time until it ran out, and now I only keep a small bottle to smell it from time to time. Inevitably, I’m reminded of Playahitty’s song, ‘The Summer is Magic’, and all that innocent madness of the era. A perfume to keep as one of the best of its kind.
I’ve finally got the new edition. I’m not sure if it’s a joke or a copy, as I know Karl Lagerfeld created for Elizabeth Arden, whereas this is from United Colors of Benetton, and I know nothing about that house. The packaging is identical, except the glass is opaque. However, the scent is very similar to what people say in reviews and the notes listed here. I recommend getting hold of it; you won’t pay more than $30. It’s exquisite.
The most potent perfume I’ve ever come across, even with the reformulation (shiny bottle, not matte). I can’t imagine the havoc it would have caused in offices with the first formula, laugh it up, Poison! I endured it for two days. It resembles Sotto Voce and Eternity, and also Diamonds and Rubies, which I don’t tolerate. They’re all by the same nose: they smell good but are overwhelming. It stayed on a jumper for weeks; even after washing it, I wore it again and my mother-in-law complimented me. It’s a true timeless floral bomb. I see it on a dreamy, laughing, tender, sweet, and extroverted woman.
It’s discontinued in my country, what a pity. It reminds me hugely of Calvin Klein’s Eternity. I love it; it transports you to another galaxy. A pleasure to wear.
As it hasn’t been added with the new house that relaunched it, I hope they review the United Colors work if it’s faithful to the original and its longevity. I still can’t find it in my city; I’ve already asked. I hope it’s the same glory so I can use it again.
In a market stall, among miniatures, I saw a blue magic ball in a round box. Upon smelling it, I was transported back to the 90s: esotericism, goth, witchcraft. Corset fashion, velvet, pirate shirts, men with earrings and amulets, the witch Madonna, and medieval fantasies. It could be in the Halliwell attic or Sabrina’s dressing table. Sun Moon Stars is a dark Flemish still life illuminated by golden light. Spicy crimson carnations with clove, followed by freshly cut pineapple and juicy apricots. Flowers, vanilla, sandalwood, metallic talc, bathroom soap, and hair fixative. Sensual, feminine, elegant, strong, and with a voluptuous sillage. She wore blue velvet; bluer than the velvet was the night, softer than satin was the starlight.
While browsing a market stall, I saw a table with miniature perfumes. Among them, a blue magic ball in a circular box caught my attention. Upon seeing and smelling it, I was transported back to the 90s, with its esotericism, gothic subculture and magic. I thought of runways with corsets and pirate-style shirts, men with earrings and sun and moon amulets, the witch Madonna and medieval fantasies. This blue ball could be in the attic of the Halliwell sisters or in Sabrina’s dressing table. Sun Moon Stars presented itself to me as a dark flamenco still life, illuminated by golden light. Scarlet spicy carnations stand out, followed by a sweet pineapple and juicy peaches. The rest are flowers, vanilla, sandalwood and a slight metallic talcum powder, toilet soap and fixative. It’s sensual, feminine, elegant, strong and with a seductive trail. She wore blue velvet.
I’ve just received the current version and it’s a true beauty. I remember a high school classmate who used it and I adored it. If my memory serves me right, it hasn’t changed much, though it resembles Eternity. On my skin, it’s a bomb. If you love 90s perfumes, you must have it.
The original (matte glass, powdery) has nothing to do with the new one (shiny glass as per the description). It has the DNA but lacks depth and gravitas. My mother used it and left half a bottle untouched; I took it over and it’s glorious: sparkling opening and delightful dry down. I tried the current version years ago and it was watery and disappointing, a total letdown. It was a masterpiece, grand, what a pity.
What a lovely scent! I have the matte version and can’t stop using it. The notes blend perfectly; it’s powdery with that Grojsman seal that also defines Kenzo’s Kashaya. The bottle is a jewel. Thanks for the reviews; I love discovering these gems.
It’s like walking into a shopping centre, hearing your favourite song, and it cutting out just before you record it. You think of old radio days, praying for the signal and the track name. Sun Moon Stars evokes that: 1994, the analogue era resisting. Dark blue bottle with a sun, moon, and stars. She had long blonde hair, a tan, golden cowboy boots, jingling chains, and a leather jacket; she was wild and dazzling. This scent announced her from miles away and kept the unwelcome at bay. A floral avalanche with a bubblegum note: orchid, rose, jasmine, bergamot. Sweetness that grows with heat, yet harmonious with wood and amber. It’s potent, slightly artificial at first with pineapple, peach, and rose, but has an underlying seductive side. Many wouldn’t feel comfortable wearing it today, but it has personality and smells different from current offerings.
This perfume has magic and brings me nostalgia. Sun, Moon and Stars bears Sophia Grojsman’s signature; while reformulations have dulled its brilliance, its moon and sun remain intact. It starts with sweet, effervescent pineapple, followed by fleeting freesia, red carnations, and powdery narcissus. In the dry down, there are jasmine, roses, heliotrope, and bergamot touched by lily root, all over book sandalwood with amber, white musk, and a hint of vanilla. It’s a mature, clean, powdery fruity floral. What a pity they discontinued it; it gives you emotions and a story. If you find it, don’t pass it up. It lasts 6-8 hours with a strong to moderate sillage, perfect for any season.
I bought it for the look, but once I tried it, I hated it. Perhaps I might fall for it another day, as my tastes change, but to be blunt: it smells like talcum powder and nuclear dust. It’s a mix of pollen, talc, 90s powder puffs, and peach fuzz. No wonder they discontinued it; nowadays it’s unthinkable and smells like another decade.
