Description
Stora Skuggan Moonmilk Eau de Parfum is a warm and creamy fragrance of woods and spices that glows from within. The famous Swiss naturalist Conrad Gessner is considered the founder of modern zoology, but as a true 16th century scientist he was also: a prominent physician, botanist, linguist and – of course – spelunking adventurer.
In his ‘Descriptio Montis Fracti sive Montis Pilati’ from 1555, he chronicles his climb to the summit of Mount Pilatus, but we also get to follow him into the caves of the Alps. ‘At night, the moon shines into the cave so brightly the light itself seems to take form, like a mist. It gathers in the ceiling and makes the limestone stalactites glitter and gleam, dripping tears of white liquid into puddles on the rock floor that never dries. Moonmilk.’
Stora Skuggan fragrances are things of mystery and Moonmilk is no exception. It is a scent that radiates a luminosity amid its own darkness. The opening clouds the nose like a subtle lactonic haze. An iridescent creaminess is piqued by the fluorescent green citrus of lime. Amid all the glistening goodness, black tea notes add murky depth. Oriental spices accentuate the caramel warmth of sandalwood. As Moonmilk retreats into its smooth, secretive drydown you will feel the wave of lunar magic glowing from within.
