Indie natural line Anya’s Garden has launched MoonDance. Like StarFlower, it is an homage to tuberose, but this one is described as “sweeter, softer and more lunar, if you will”.
The sultry silkiness of tuberose slips through the dream of pristine forests and lifts your spirits with the excitement of the moonlit dance. The dance under the moon is eternal and it touches your soul and awakens your senses. The animal touches in the base are the primal notes that form the deep, slow music of the dance.
The notes include violet, Indian water mint, tuberose, jasmine, rose de mai, apple-scented chamomile, opononax, ambergris, sandalwood and hyrax.
Anya’s Garden MoonDance is available in 3.5 ml Parfum Extrait ($75) or 15 ml Eau de Parfum ($125), and can be found at the Anya’s Garden website. (via newsletter from Anya’s Garden)

I love the ad copy, it reads like an entry to the Le Prix Eau Faux. The notes actually sound quite nice, but I’m not likely to get my hands on any of it.
I will try both of the tuberose scents — I do love tuberose!
Isn’t ‘apple scented chamomile’ redundant?
I suppose, but guessing she wants to tell you that it’s Roman instead of German chamomile…but like I said, I’m just guessing.
Weird, because I never thought of chamomile as smelling like apple at all. I guess I’ll have to pay more attention next time I have tea.
I don’t think chamomile tea smells like apples either…but the fresh plant is supposed to smell like apples.
I read years ago that Chamomile has an apple-like scent and after planting it and testing that statement, I do agree it’s reminiscent. Sort of ‘honeyed apple’ to my nose.
Thanks!
