Longevity & Projection: Soir De Lune on the Clock

Longevity (9/10): Soir De Lune delivers exceptional longevity for EDP. On most skin types expect 12+ hours. A single morning application typically carries through well into the evening without reinforcement.

Sillage (8/10): Soir De Lune projects as a confident aura, detectable by those nearby. One or two sprays is all that is needed — over-application will overpower rather than impress.

Versatility (5/10): Soir De Lune is suited to a specific context, with a clearly defined personality that not all occasions can accommodate. It thrives in its intended context but may feel mismatched further outside that sweet spot.

Value (6/10): Pricing at around $150 feels appropriate for what you get — neither a bargain nor an overreach.

Soir De Lune Across Five Climate Zones

Of the five climate zones we score, Soir De Lune does best in cold (Murree, New York) at 9/10 — it keeps its shape there instead of turning sharp or fading fast. The number to watch is extreme heat (Riyadh, Phoenix) at 3/10, where you are better off reaching for something else.

Its richness and depth make it best suited for cooler evenings; it can be overwhelming in high heat and humidity.

The composition explains it: Bergamot, Lemon and Mandarin Orange are volatile materials that flash off quickly once the temperature rises, taking much of the character along.

Its average across all five zones is 6/10 — broad enough to wear most of the year without second-guessing the weather.
