zankoku_zen Report post Posted December 8, 2020 This year’s Cold Moon is a frozen chocolate confection because we’re too deep into 2020 for me to feel like being profound. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DianesTulpa Report post Posted December 21, 2020 Cold moon starts off as a cold, frosty, chocolate milkshake and then some winter outdoor elements, like fir/spruce and maybe even a little snow come out. It's basically like enjoying a milkshake outside in winter. I'm here for it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
torikitty Report post Posted December 24, 2020 This initially goes on like the chocolate from Jólabókaflóðið, with a hint of a coldness under it. Sadly, there's an ozoney slush note that has a hint of aquatic that comes forward, and overpowers the chocolate. This doesn't work for me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DarkMagelet Report post Posted December 24, 2020 (edited) Strangely enough, I don't get any of the chilled chocolate that others have experienced. It goes on my skin wet like a gooey and warm fudge brownie. Once it dries down a little the chocolate all but disappears and cools to a chilly winter night. After it's dried and I've worn it for a little while I get more of the feeling of walking through an evergreen forest on a snowy evening. I actually love that scent of fresh pine needles, so this one will definitely be a keeper for me. I also enjoy a scent that morphs a lot so I get to enjoy several scents in one wearing. Medium wear and has a good throw when first applied. I'm curious how this one will smell as a DIY room spray. Edited December 24, 2020 by DarkMagelet Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Threemoons Report post Posted January 13 Okay, so just got my bottle last night; showered this AM and put it on along with the matching T-shirt, and drinking some fudge-flavored iced coffee from Bones Coffee, so I am all set to go on this one. In the bottle: Straight-up perfect Fudgesicle from afternoon snack time at summer camp growing up. As in perfect sensory memory match. On, wet: Fudgesicle note bursts open along with a few bright sparks of some kind of winter garland thing...getting a bit of white chilly floral and a hint of fresh evergreen balsam. Now it's festive fudge that you get from the candy counter of a Christmas tree ornament shop! Drydown--after about two hours it dries down to a sort of sophisticated cocoa powder, snow notes, and that chilly winter garland thing with tiny glimmers of balsam in it. Really pretty and so comforting -- again this is one of the most memory-triggering scents that I've come across in a while.
