Luna by Penhaligon's opens warm and spiced, with candied ginger stirred into bright bergamot and a crackle of black and pink pepper. There is no floral heart here: the scent moves straight from that spiced citrus opening into a dry, powdery base of amber and Haitian vetiver. The overall effect reads warm and a little dusty rather than like a bouquet. Gender-neutral by nature, it suits anyone who prefers ginger and pepper to florals. Voters keep it for autumn and winter, worn at any time of day but especially at night and in the evening. The longevity vote leans long lasting. The sillage vote leans strong too. A 10ml decant is enough to live with it through a full season before you settle on a size.

The community verdict
Candied ginger, bergamot and black pepper give Luna a bright, spicy start before amber, Haitian vetiver and powdery notes settle in. The largest group finds it long-lasting and strong in projection, though others report moderate wear and projection. It suits autumn nights, with winter and evenings working too.

The house
More from Penhaligon's
Penhaligon's goes back to 1870 in Britain, when William Henry Penhaligon, a barber from Cornwall, founded the house and later served as perfumer to the court of Queen Victoria. Today it pairs that history with playful, character-led scents, many named like people in a story. Warm spice runs through much of it: cardamom, saffron and black pepper over vanilla, amber, tobacco and sandalwood. Start with Halfeti, woody and spiced with an aromatic lift. Changing Constance is caramel and vanilla with a peppery glow, and The Blazing Mr Sam is tobacco and spice over woods. Empressa is the bright one, citrus and fruit.
