Community Insights

The fragrance is widely regarded as a discreet, intimate scent with low projection and soft sillage, making it better suited for skin-scent enthusiasts than those seeking a room-filling aroma.
Most users find the performance to be fleeting, often requiring multiple reapplications throughout the day or heavy spraying on clothes to maintain a noticeable presence.
It is frequently categorized as a versatile "workhorse" fragrance, ideal for business settings, office wear, or casual daytime errands due to its clean and non-offensive character.
The community views this as a prime example of a fragrance purchased for the scent profile itself rather than technical performance, appealing to those who prioritize a specific aesthetic over longevity.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this a heavy floral scent?+

Not at all. While it contains tuberose and lily, 18 La Lune is classified as a floral fresh fragrance. The addition of musk and orris root keeps the florals airy and powdery rather than dense or tropical.

On what occasions should I wear this?+

This fragrance is best suited for daily wear, leisure activities, and professional business environments. Its subtle nature makes it a safe choice for situations where you want to smell clean and put-together without being distracting.

How does 18 La Lune perform in terms of longevity?+

Longevity is generally considered below average. Many users find that it fades within a few hours, though spraying it on clothing rather than just skin can help the musky, woody base notes linger a bit longer.

Is this considered a seasonal fragrance?+

It is most popular during the spring and summer months. The fresh accords and light floral heart pair well with warmer weather and sunshine, though it is versatile enough for year-round daytime use.

Does the leather note make it smell masculine?+

While it features leather and sandalwood, the prominent lily and tuberose keep the fragrance leaning toward a traditionally feminine profile. Many find the leather to be soft and "skin-like" rather than aggressive or animalic.

Is 18 La Lune still in production?+

This fragrance was part of the D&G Anthology collection launched in 2009. It has since been discontinued, making it a sought-after item for collectors of the original lineup.
