A LA LUNE LONDON SANTAL EXTREME

FRAGRANCE FAMILY: AMBER WOODY

TOP NOTES: saffron, angelica

HEART NOTES: amber, frankincense

BASE NOTES: oud wood, benzoin tears

This amber woody scent is sooo comforting. It’s like snuggling down in the corner of an old leather sofa, in a rarely used library, with a fabulous old book, while the rays of the sun stream through the cobwebbed windows, as dust motes dance, casting playful shadows across the wood-panelled floor. Quite possibly you could lose yourself for hours wrapped in warm, powdery notes. Resinous tones of saffron, frankincense and benzoin tears blend mellifluously to a honeyed glow.

A La Lune is a young brand with big ideas. Their vision is "To inspire imagination, and to find unique values in each individual through recognizing their imagination and creativity. To create a utopia where freedom, fantasy and beauty are accessible, and to aspire to make the world a better place." Established in the UK in 2021, this multicultural team has drawn on philosophy, art and history. This melting pot, into which ingredients such as Phoebe Zhennan wood have been deposited, has produced a collection of fragrances evoking the past, are beautifully wearable today, but with a determination to make the world a better place in the future.
