The art of beauty, revealed in perfume

Moon Tale pays homage to beauty rituals as an art of personal expression. Through the radiance of a flaming red, a veil of rice powder, the intensity of the gaze, color reveals a part of oneself. Inspired by the Chinese legend of the Four Beauties — one of whom is said to have eclipsed the moon with her grace — Jacques Cavallier Belletrud imagined an olfactory reinterpretation. The Master Perfumer translated the evocative power of red into a brilliant burst of raspberry that opens the composition. It reveals a generous bouquet of China's most beautiful flowers: peony brings tenderness, revealed by vibrant accents of geranium. Intense, radiant jasmine sambac is enveloped by the freshness of magnolia. For the base, musks impart an ethereal, powdery veil with cosmetic accents. A perfume that’s like a final gesture before stepping into the light amid the vibrant energy of the night.

Moon Tale is part of Perfumes of the World by Louis Vuitton, which continues its exploration of cultures and beauty with a new chapter: a trio of fragrances inspired by the Chinese art of living. Through three creations, the Maison extends an invitation to discover the rituals, craftsmanship and raw materials that nourish the spirit of travel. For the occasion, the silhouette of the apothecary-style bottle designed by Marc Newson meets the Chinese snuff bottle, an historic art object of timeless refinement. This small bottle, at once functional and precious, resonates with the tradition of the Maison that, since 1854, has brought beauty and utility together in iconic travel objects. The bottle is made of opalescent glass with changing reflections and crowned with a lacquered cap in deep hues. This chromatic pairing reflects the unique identity of each perfume. Moon Tale’s bottle is dressed in colors inspired by the art of tian-tsui, an ancient Chinese jewelry-making craft of embellishing brooches and parures with blue kingfisher feathers and coral.

The bottle is refillable in stores equipped with a perfume fountain.
