Tarata
The Soft Tuberose
According to Antica Farmacista, "Ala Moana" (in Hawaiian?) translates to "The Way to the Sea," and the fragrance is said to evoke tropical island nights.
And indeed, Ala Moana conjures images of sultry evenings in tropical locales. The scent is a vast sea of flowers that rise to the head and enchant. Soft, harmonious; I perceive green notes only with imagination, but I do recognize the tuberose and the lovely gardenia.
Ala Moana is not something that hasn’t been seen before, but it is a solidly pretty, well-rounded fragrance.
