A scent of Christmas
Lunea... Where do we start?
Keiko Mecheri does this type of fragrances well, this one does not fall into the 'so sweet it makes your teeth hurt' cathegory, like Loukhoum and it's sisters.
It makes me think a bit of dry wine. It's mean to be sweet if you look at the notes, and it kind of is... But at the same time, it's slightly bitter. There is that sweet marzipan with a rose aftertaste, but then you get lots of orange peel, and myrrh and smoke coming from the frankincense, and the gourmand angle is largely toned down.
The whole fragramce makes me think of Christmas. It has those different aromas that I associate with this time of the year, the food, the church, the visit to a Christmas market. It's at the same time quite a solemn fragrance, beautiful, tranquil.
The drydown is simply to die for. Maybe a bit too close to skin perhaps, would love it to project a bit more, but envelops your body like a warm, soft cashmere sweater.
