There is a moon that does not illuminate everything, but leaves shadowed areas in which one can get lost. Its cold, subtle light traces silvered contours, like a veil draped over the world. The crisp, clear air carries echoes of distant memories and the thrill of what is yet to come.Moonlight Shadow is the essence of this suspended night: a meeting of nostalgia and desire, between the enveloping warmth of oud and the sharp gleam of metallic and aldehydic facets. It is a fragrance of contrasts—warm and cool, luminous and dark, familiar and mysterious. Moonlight Shadow is for those who live between two worlds: the one they remember and the one they dream of. For those who let themselves be guided by a moon that never reveals the whole truth, yet enchants with every shadow.The opening is clear and sparkling. Orange blossom and chinotto leaves and peels intertwine with the luminous notes of mandarin and anise, creating a fresh and vibrant first breath, like the night air.At the heart, chinotto flower and jasmine merge with velvety tuberose and Damask rose, while ylang-ylang and iris provide a soft, sophisticated powdery touch. Here, aldehydes insinuate themselves like metallic reflections of the moon on water, forming an almost hypnotic contrast.The base is a sensual and profound embrace. Golden honey blends with the resinous richness of incense and the herbal aroma of wormwood, supported by the spicy warmth of juniper and the earthy depth of patchouli and cedar. Oud, a silent protagonist, envelops everything with its dark allure, while musk amplifies the longevity—an echo lingering in the air long after the wearer has passed.Top notes: Orange blossom, chinotto leaves and peel, Mandarin, anise Heart notes: Bitter orange flowers, jasmine, tuberose, amber, Damask rose, elemi (aromatic resin from tropical plants), ylang-ylang, iris, aldehydes Base notes: Honey, musk, cedar, Patchouli, oud, absinthe, juniper, incense
