Moonbase Ambra 1
The name Ambra di Luna, meaning Amber of the Moon, sounds so beautifully mystical and fairy-tale-like that you might actually think of a rather soft, delicate and absolutely smooth fragrance.
It almost would be, because warm, cozy amber definitely plays first fiddle here and complements wonderfully with the expensive sandalwood from the Indian Mysore. The jasmine also fits harmoniously into the composition, with the citrus notes at the beginning of a small counterpoint, which already comes across somewhat unusual but not at all unpleasant.
In contrast, the animalism of the castoreum, which also participates from the beginning is a greater challenge. Personally, it does not bother me, but could cause irritation for many who would definitely prefer to enjoy Ambra di Luna without the animal undertone. This is just a curse and blessing at the same time, because otherwise we would have it here with a rather ordinary amber perfume to do, as you find it in masses.
Is also no drama, because said castoreum does not hold out until the base note and fades faster than feared (or one would like).
Whether the called 145 € for 50 ml Eau de Parfum are to be declared as a moon price must also find out everyone for themselves.
