Éclat de Lune by Maison Alhambra is a romantic, mysterious, and subtly sensual fragrance a soft-spoken luxury that whispers rather than shouts. Translating to “Moonlight Glow,” this scent lives up to its name: elegant, ethereal, and luminously soft. Inspired by Luna by Nina Ricci, Éclat de Lune offers a budget-friendly interpretation with a surprisingly refined touch.

It opens with a bright, juicy apple note crisp, fresh, and just a touch tart wrapped in a light veil of bergamot and orange blossom. This fruity-citrus introduction is smooth and feminine, gently sparkling rather than bursting.

As it evolves, a delicate floral heart emerges with jasmine, peony, and a trace of rose offering softness and romantic charm. The florals here don’t feel overly powdery or synthetic; instead, they’re dewy, like petals touched by night air.

The dry-down is where Éclat de Lune truly glows. A smooth base of vanilla, sandalwood, and a whisper of musk creates a velvety, skin-close finish. It’s sensual but clean like the warmth of bare skin under silk. The overall composition is gentle, ladylike, and ideal for those who love quiet luxury in their scents.
