The review

On paper, Delightful is a strong bet if you want Moonlight in Heaven for less.

HK Perfumes 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.

It is sold as an extrait — a high concentration, which usually means it sits closer to the skin for longer.

At $89 per 100ml it costs 66% less than Moonlight in Heaven — the cheapest of 4 twins we can price.

Some wearers dispute how close it gets — the match is the seller's claim, so read the votes before you buy.

Reviewed on paper: from the notes and strength HK Perfumes 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 Delightful is working from.

Top

  • grapefruit
  • pink pepper
  • bergamot

Heart

  • mango
  • coconut
  • rice

Base

  • black tea
  • sandalwood
  • vetiver
Bitter grapefruit over sweet mango and coconut rice, tropical without ever going syrupy.

Some fans dispute how close this one gets — it is listed against the original by its seller.

How it ranks against the other twins

Of the 4 twins of By Kilian Moonlight in Heaven we can price, Delightful is the cheapest per 100ml.
