Real talk
The green tea opening is a calculated move, something calm, almost medicinal, before the florals arrive. Some people want the whole garden immediately. Pleine Lune makes you wait. And that patience?Pleine Lune
This fragrance does not announce itself. Bergamot and vetiver give it structure, but the florals keep it from feeling austere. It works best when you want to smell present without screaming.Bal d'Afrique
