Very Floral And Intoxicating
Now this one is very feminine and no way could a man pull this one off unless he totally does not care for gender classifications. This opens with a heady and very floral Gardenia accord with orange blossom. It's very heady and intoxicating, the Gardenia is very floral and slightly earthy. There is also a Vetiver note in the background. I now know why there are no men's fragrances I know of or have ever tried that has a dominant Gardenia accord.

The scent is very beautiful and lush and on a woman she would smell like a princess. But for me though I can appreciate it's beauty I don't want to smell like a princess. It just would not go down well in my neighbourhood. lol

A beautifully scented path of introspection

First of all, is that not the most beautiful name? And the name reflects what is inside the bottle, a dreamy evening of white flowers, with tuberose and gardenia being the star to my nose, but there is an earthiness to it from the vetiver, musk, resins and sandalwood but with an animalic sweetness from the honey, ambergris and castoreum. This is a very complex fragrance initially, with the multiple florals and layers almost competing, but gorgeous white florals win initially on my skin but it settles down to more earthiness after a few hours with the florals taking the background. Even with all the white flowers nothing about this feel like “daytime” though. Moonlit Reverie is beautiful outdoors during the day, and while it’s beautiful and floral, this fragrance was meant to be smelled in the night air where the magic really happens. There is something introspective about this scent, I can’t explain it, almost melancholy. Not that it makes me feel sad but it makes me think about things. Meaningful things. Very hard to describe but if a perfume can create a scent that brings about forgiveness, I would describe it that way. It sort of opens your heart and makes you see good in the world. Is that possible? It gives me this beautiful sense of peace within myself and with the world.

Top notes are tuberose, gardenia and aldehydes; middle notes are tuberose, sandalwood, orange blossom, jasmine, orris and narcissus; base notes are siam benzoin, bourbon vetiver, castoreum, ambergris, sandalwood, cassis, musk and honey.

Clean and delicate narcotic white florals. Feminine leaning but I’d wear it as a man, it’s too good.

Wow, the opening is so aldehydic-soapy.
I've never smelled anything like this in an attar.
It even dominates the strong florals.

Tuberose and orange blossom are clearly dominant; on one hand, it’s very enchanting-floral, but on the other hand, they balance each other out.

Heavy, yes, but with the orange overload (smells like your fingers after peeling) that's not an argument. Not my thing at all.

Tuberose and gardenia are very dominant here. So dominant that you can hardly recognize the other notes. If you like tuberose... Thumbs down!

tuberose and orange blossom in a precious-dark-cool duet. the base is subtle, the heart note takes the lead. dream catcher. soul scent.
