The review

On paper, Moonlight in Paradise is a reasonable bet if you want Moonlight in Heaven for less.

Alexandria Fragrances sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Moonlight in Heaven's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.

At $110 per 100ml it costs 58% less than Moonlight in Heaven — the 2nd cheapest of 4 twins we can price.

Value6.4
Evidence7.0

Reviewed on paper: from the notes and strength Alexandria Fragrances publishes, the price per 100ml, and how firmly the match is claimed. How it really smells on skin is what the votes below are for.

What it's built to smell like

The original opens on grapefruit, pink pepper and bergamot, turns to mango, coconut and rice, and settles into black tea, sandalwood and vetiver. That is the brief Moonlight in Paradise is working from.

Bitter grapefruit over sweet mango and coconut rice, tropical without ever going syrupy.
