Ornate Moon
Ornate Moon by Thomas Kosmala is an unisex eau de parfum in the niche price tier. It opens with incense and rose, moves into iris, vanilla and patchouli and dries down to oud, amber and powdery notes. Expect around 8 hours of wear, and it projects at a moderate level.
Notes, explained
Opening
- Incense Smoky, dry and meditative. Adds gravity to anything.
- Rose Can be jammy, green, peppery or soapy depending on the type. Not one smell.
Heart
- Iris Cool, powdery, slightly carroty and expensive. The luxury note.
- Vanilla Sweet, creamy and warm. The most comforting note in perfumery.
- Patchouli Damp earth and dark chocolate. Either you love it or it's your least favourite note.
Dry-down
- Oud Resinous, medicinal, barnyard-adjacent wood. The most expensive note in perfumery.
- Amber Warm, golden and resinous. Not a real material — a blend that glows.
- Powdery Notes Soft, dusty and cosmetic. The feel of face powder more than any one flower.
