Perris Monte Carlo Shining Moon is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2023, created by Gian Luca Perris. Shining Moon opens with Pink Pepper, settles into a heart of Rose, Jasmine, and Magnolia, and dries down to a base of Musk, Cedar, Sandalwood, and Iso E Super. Perris Monte Carlo's Shining Moon carries a Favourite verdict, a woody-led wear.

This one's a divisive 'your skin but better' scent, heavy on pink pepper and airy musks. Some will adore its clean, sophisticated vibe; others will find it unfinished, synthetic, and lacking a punch beyond the pepper. Try before you buy, unless you're a die-hard Perris Monte Carlo fan.

About

Shining Moon opens with a bright, almost fizzy pink pepper that quickly becomes the star of the show. It's grounded by a blend of clean, airy musks and soft, polished woods, primarily cedar and sandalwood. Hints of delicate florals, like rose and magnolia, peek through but are largely overshadowed by the dominant peppery-woody-musk accord, creating a modern, 'skin scent' effect with subtle depth. It feels more like a concept than a traditional fragrance, a shimmering aura of cool spices and smooth, almost synthetic warmth.
