Buck Moon

Recommended Posts

This Full Moon marks the time of the year when the new antlers of buck deer emerge from their foreheads, coated in soft velvet. This is a time of masculine vigor, thunder, balmy nights, glorious sunlight and hot winds. Buck Moon is an animalistic, deep scent: an amplification of one's natural musk coupled with forest herbs, a hint of clear, warm evening air and a crystalline spark of lunar oil.

 

I received a decant of this from the lovely sunshinedaisybliss :wub2: and it is just beautiful. I typically don't have much luck with lunacy blends, but there have been a few over the years that have worked for me. This reminds me of Hunter Moon 2007, which is one of my favorite lunacy blends. It has a similar musk, animalic feel without the wine note in Hunter Moon. Just a lovely scent, and I am grateful that I got to try this!

This is my "holy grail" BPAL and I absolutely could not live without it. I guess one day I might have to because this is a rare one to find! I will take any imp, decant and bottle I can get my little hands on. I sadly feel like I have to wear it sparingly, because there of course, is nothing else like it. I have one pretty much empty bottle from a trunk show and one full aged bottle.

 

Wet: I smell spice, but it's not like the kind you'd cook with. I really don't know what kind of "spice" it is, it just has that overpowering spicy kick to it when I first put it on. In the bottle I smell spice too, which I found odd as I don't know what that could be. It's fun to try and guess. This part has mellowed a lot in the trunk show version, less so in the aged cobalt bottle which I found odd!

 

Dry: This morphs into the most amazing skin musk that is super crystal clean. Like fresh cut grass or woods but without the earthy smells you'd expect from that. I always imagine I'm a sweet little fawn wandering through the forest when I wear this. It's so fresh and innocent and girly.

 

Few hours later: This is my kind of scent as it lasts ALL day even after a sweaty workout! I love how I smell it on my pillowcase and it's helped me drift off to sleep. Once dried down, it's got this animalistic quality and that is what gives me the "Buck Moon" visual, or the masculinity of this blend, but it's still so soft and sexy. It's also one of the only blends my husband goes crazy for, which makes sense because it works so well with my skin. I wish I could obtain many, many bottles!
