D&G Anthology La Lune 18
by Dolce&Gabbana
La Lune 18 from Dolce&Gabbana presents a delicate, transparent white floral scent defined by crisp lily and tuberose notes. It unfolds with a light, greenish-apple opening that quickly transitions into a soft, powdery floral core, balanced by subtle musk and a faint, cool leather undertone. The overall impression is clean and refreshing—like a gentle morning mist or a fresh shower—making it ideal for daytime wear during spring and summer. While some find it overly simplistic or lacking depth, others praise its elegance, quiet sophistication, and ability to evoke a dreamlike, poetic mood. The scent is universally described as unobtrusive, wearable, and quietly sensual, with a delicate sillage that fades quickly. It has a low persistence, requiring reapplication throughout the day, but its lightweight nature makes it adaptable to various skin chemistries and outfits.
