Van Cleef & Arpels Moonlight Cherry is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2025. Moonlight Cherry opens with Almond and Rum, settles into a heart of Coffee and Cherry, and dries down to a base of Musk and Vanilla. Van Cleef & Arpels's Moonlight Cherry carries a Statement verdict, a cherry-led wear.

This is a seriously boozy, rich cherry scent that's got opinions divided. Some find it a bold, sexy dessert in a bottle, while others think it's just another syrupy cherry, too intense for everyday. Love it or hate it, it's definitely not one to blind buy.

About

Moonlight Cherry opens with a potent burst of juicy cherry and boozy rum, laced with a bitter almond edge. As the initial sweetness settles, a subtle coffee note emerges, adding a grounding complexity before it dries down to a rich, creamy vanilla embrace. It evokes a decadent cherry liqueur or a sophisticated black forest gateau.
