Moon Jasmine

Finally, this has been added to the data base. I got a free sample of this in an order from Ministry of Scent and I fell head over heals for it and bought a FB right away. I've had it since this summer and now I am able to add it to my collection here. This is a really beautiful and unique jasmine fragrance. The sweet and milky custard apple goes so well with the tangy berries (I forgot their name) in the top notes. They smell absolutely delicious but those fruits melt into the heady and beautiful jasmine, Fragrant tea, softly smoky incense and balsamic vanilla. You can smell each individual note but they still blend together to create a beautiful, heady, and very romantic and enchanted aroma. This is a year a round fragrance but I really enjoyed wearing it in high heat of summer. It has a tropical vibe while not being entirely tropical. Heady, romantic, sensual and very delicious. Would be a lovely honeymoon fragrance. Any romantic occasion really. Big Love for me.

Holy jasmine! Wonderful soft, creamy and warm detergent freshness that evokes the first blooms of jasmine in the springtime. Smelling my wrist felt like burying my face in sheets christened with jasmine blooms; strong and clean scent. Open is very jasmine heavy, only very slightly powdery for how floral it is. After about 4 hours, the smell was a light and creamy vanilla jasmine, like the scent of a milk tea without the lactonic quality, with faint wisps of something that evoked a sweetness -- maybe lychee or green grape, though there is nothing of the sort. Overall, super gorgeous jasmine vanilla, like sitting in a garden in the springtime shade, surrounded by fresh jasmine blooms and lines of fresh laundry hanging overhead.

The notes list here is missing some of the most important elements of this fragrance: Maracuja and Chirimoya, which imbue Moon Jasmine with a luscious, intense fruitiness that makes it totally captivating and unique as far as jasmine perfumes go!! I love Jasmine, but Loreto has created something truly unlike any jasmine perfume I’ve smelled before: a deeply fruity jasmine with great lasting power (all day for me!) and nice projection 🙌 I’ve long loved Loreto’s work with her own L’Aromatica line so I knew this would be a love for me. If you’re a lover of fruity florals this is a wonderful take on this genre!!

got a sample of this because I am looking for a strong, indolic, jasmine-forward scent to replace lust by lush. this one is not what I'm looking for, but it's still pleasant. it's more fruit-forward than jasmine-forward. the first thing you smell is a blast of juicy peach (or some kind of fruit). once it settles down, the jasmine starts to come through. but it's a fresh jasmine, as opposed to the heady, dark version I was hoping for. I will use up the sample, but not repurchase. i'm sure this is the right scent for somebody though. it awoke a scent memory I didn't know I had, and this is an extremely deep pull that I'm sure no one will get, but it reminded me of the (long discontinued) lychee blossom body butter from the body shop.

Upon spray, perhaps for half a second, I thought I got something tropical maybe banana. But it’s a bit of floral creaminess and I get citrus, not necessarily bergamot. And it’s more of a rind, not the juicy pulp. It is an interesting interpretation of a jasmine perfume.
