Vilhelm Parfumerie Moon Carnival is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2018. Moon Carnival opens with Bergamot, Freesia, and Passionfruit, settles into a heart of Tuberose, Gardenia, and Orchid, and dries down to a base of Marshmallow, Vanilla, and Tonka Bean. Vilhelm Parfumerie's Moon Carnival carries a Favourite verdict, a white floral-led wear.

This one is a divisive white floral that promises sweet marshmallow but mostly delivers a strong tuberose hit. Some find it beautiful and enchanting, others claim it's basic, screechy, or even smells like banana or cleaning products. Definitely sample before you splurge.

About

Moon Carnival opens with a bold, bright burst of freesia and bergamot, uplifted by a juicy passionfruit sweetness. The heart is a rich, creamy white floral bouquet led by heady tuberose, gardenia, and orchid, which can be intense for some. As it mellows, a subtle, fluffy sweetness emerges from the marshmallow, vanilla, and tonka bean, adding a gentle, airy warmth to the floral core.
