Les Lunatiques

This is a stunning, very natural smelling witchy potion that has me convinced I could probably blind buy anything from LVNEA and be happy. Les Lunqtiques particularly won me over due to the heavy jasmine. I love that she’s combined it with such earthy, woodsy notes — the camphor gives it a slightly medicinal quality but that makes me love it all the more, because it’s makes this lean a bit eccentric, which is exactly how I like my florals!! If you had a quirky aunt who taught art and wore lots of flowy clothes, crystals and headpieces that somehow only she could pull off - this would be her fragrance :-)

This is a special scent- very unlike anything I've smelled before. When I first sampled this I was put off by it, but quickly it grew on me. It's creamy, soft, opalescent, it does smell lunar and glowing. I started wearing my sample as a bedtime scent; comforting and soft, perfect to lull you to sleep. Recently I bought a full bottle and have been wearing it constantly... it hovers between smelling like the inside of a tree, milky jasmine tea, fresh butter, and humid night air. So in love with this!

Leaving another review for this because I can't believe how beautiful it is. It's winter, I sprayed this on after coming out of the bath, and was enveloped in coziness. It's like entering a musky, creamy, damp cloud; it feels cooling, gauzy and safe. Such a good nighttime scent for drifting into potent dreams.

Opens cool, medicinal, slightly spicy, green—camphor, myrrh and jasmine beginning to work their magic immediately... The slight spice of the black pepper soon fades as the vermouth leads into a smooth, herbal and creamy heart. There’s an opaque, opalescent and downright lunar quality given to the jasmine here, which is already naturally evocative of the sultry night air, but in combination with the mentholated aspects of the camphor, the smoky, resinous copal and the pale, phantom-like earthy-powdery orris this blend captures the night in an otherworldly sense—reminiscent of those moments in the depths of twilight, on the brink of deep slumber where you can’t help but lose track of what reality you’re in... Silky sandalwood and warming ambrette complement the base wonderfully, providing a comforting wooden butteriness. I also find there to be some slight vanillic and chocolate nuances present. Altogether I find this a naturally bewitching nocturnal blend, reminiscent of both the innate innocence and lunacy that the nighttime brings... Sillage moderate to strong, longevity superb. Priced competitively among niche. Bravo, madames!!!

At first I was surprised at all the reviews commenting on the creaminess of this perfume, but in the end I’ve been really captivated by this scent. It’s rich and yet also has a super soft feeling, definitely akin to moonlight, and almost like getting lost in a delicate mist. This scent, to me, screams autumn, though I could see it also working in spring or summer. I generally prefer deeper more gourmand scents in the winter, so I don’t think I would gravitate towards this during that time. Wearing this feels like wandering a moonlit woods in the autumn to me, wonderfully mysterious and soft.
