Honey Moon

Honey Moon by Phlur is a feminine-leaning eau de parfum in the designer price tier. It opens with mandarin and lavender, moves into orange blossom, honey and saffron and dries down to tonka bean, vanilla and sandalwood. Expect around 6 hours of wear, and it projects at a moderate level.

Notes, explained

Opening

• Mandarin Soft, sweet, almost powdery citrus. Gentler than orange.
• Lavender Herbal, clean, slightly medicinal. Barbershop in one note.

Heart

• Orange Blossom Sweet, soapy and sunny. Neroli's warmer sibling.
• Honey Sweet, waxy and slightly animalic. Can smell dirty in large doses.
• Saffron Leathery, medicinal and slightly metallic. The signature of modern niche.

Dry-down

• Tonka Bean Almond, hay and vanilla in one. Warm and slightly nutty.
• Vanilla Sweet, creamy and warm. The most comforting note in perfumery.
• Sandalwood Creamy, milky wood. Soft and almost edible.
