Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Luna EDT
A truly divisive gourmand that swings from 'deliciously complex' to 'nauseatingly sweet old lady smell'. If you can handle the liquorice and love your caramel, this might just be your quirky sweet spot. Otherwise, it's a hard nope.
Statement
Our Verdict - The Moon EDP
Perfume Parlour's affordable interpretation of Nina Ricci - Luna - a floral fragrance led by Tangerine, Lime, Orange Blossom, with citrus depth. As a budget interpretation it sits lighter and more linear than the designer, but the core signature is there.

Season and Occasion Fit

Luna

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual

Given its strong gourmand profile and mixed reviews on projection and longevity, Luna is best suited for casual or date nights where its sweetness can shine without overwhelming. Its depth prevents it from being a good office or formal choice, and it's definitely not for sport.

The Moon

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer

Best in spring and summer - the floral, citrus profile suits those conditions, while extremes of heat or cold flatten the dupe's lighter composition.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual
Also Works:
Office Sport

Keep it for casual and daily - the floral accord gives presence while the gentle projection keeps it crowd-friendly.
