Strong contender

The review

On paper, Selene is a strong bet if you want Moon Tale for less.

Velixir sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Moon Tale's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.

At $60 per 100ml it costs 88% less than Moon Tale — the 2nd cheapest of 5 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 Velixir 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 raspberry, turns to peony, jasmine sambac and magnolia, and settles into rose and geranium. That is the brief Selene is working from.

Top

  • peony
  • jasmine sambac

Base

  • rose
  • geranium
Peony and raspberry threaded with jasmine and geranium, luminous and cool, a story told after dark.

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 7 twins of Louis Vuitton Moon Tale we can price, Selene is number 2 on price per 100ml.
