The story behind the bottle.
Paradise Moon by Estée Lauder was launched in 2021 and is a Leather fragrance for both women and men. Created by perfumer Rodrigo Flores-Roux, this scent is inspired by the blooming season of osmanthus, where joy and lust for life are palpable. The top note of osmanthus exudes a powerful floral aroma that’s also favored in Chinese traditional medicine and exquisite food condiments. Labdanum adds an earthy warmth to the heart, while leather grounds it with a soft, animalic undertone.
Apply this fragrance generously to ensure the osmanthus top notes are fully present. The base of leather and labdanum takes time to bloom, so give it at least an hour before you reassess its presence on your skin.
