Review of Moominvalley by Marta Regina Jabłońska

I will begin unusually with a confession: I did not purchase this fragrance as a fan of the Moomins, which I last read as a child (although I now intend to return to them). My opinion is therefore not influenced by nostalgia or childhood affection. And yet, there is so much to admire here. Lush has created many beautiful fragrances capable of bringing pure olfactory pleasure, but this one stands apart. It offers something more: a profound sense of relaxation, tranquility, and comfort. All the notes are beautifully harmonized, creating a composition of refined sweetness. I expected fresh, green nuances, yet this fragrance instead brings to my mind the aroma of delicate biscuits. A gentle bergamot, free from excessive tartness or bitterness, a calm and understated lavender, smooth and serene vanilla, with subtle resinous woody nuances in the background. The sillage is strong, and longevity on fabric lasts throughout the day. Wearing this creation feels like being held in the arms of someone who truly cares for you. Beautiful perfumes.
