What does Moonlight Shadow smell like?

The top notes set the soft fruit of fig and peach against the spice of cumin. In the heart, leather and cocoa pull the scent in a leathery, earthy and slightly animalic direction. Cedarwood in the base lays down a woody, smoky floor.

Its longevity is rated strong and its sillage good. Most voters pick autumn and winter, with spring and summer trailing behind. It is chosen mostly for leisure, nights out and evenings, and it reads somewhat more masculine than feminine. Initio Divine Attraction and Amouage Epic Man have a close profile.
