How does Maison Asrar Luna smell?
Five notes share the top: bergamot and orange for citrus, peach for a soft, juicy fruit, and magnolia and gardenia, two creamy white flowers that bring floral character from the very first moments. The heart is more floral still, with rose, orange blossom, jasmine and freesia, a fresh, light, dewy flower. Nearly everything here is soft, bright or floral, so the peach is probably the one thing that keeps the Fruity label in view.
Chypre usually points to a structure of citrus, a floral heart and a dry, earthy base, and the base here is patchouli, vetiver, sandalwood, musks and vanilla. Patchouli and vetiver bring the earth, sandalwood adds creamy wood, and vanilla and musks add a soft sweetness, so the dry chypre side is balanced by a gentler one. Altogether this reads as a floral-fruity scent with an earthy but smooth foundation.
What Maison Asrar's own page says about Luna
Maison Asrar's product page for Luna gives its family as chypre and fruity.
It also puts words of its own on three of the notes: vanilla (sweet, warm, soft), rose (floral, elegant, romantic) and peach (fruity, sweet, craving).
Who might like Maison Asrar Luna?
Luna is for someone who wants many flowers and a ripe peach at once, anchored by patchouli and vetiver rather than left to float. It is also one to compare by notes with the Maison Asrar scents that combine rose, jasmine and orange blossom with a vanilla and musks base.
