In plain words

The main accords of The Moon are fruity and sweet. It opens with Raspberry and Litchi, reveals Red Berries and Turkish Rose at its heart, and dries down to Leather and Agarwood (Oud). It lasts very long and is very loud; people reach for it in autumn and winter, mostly in the evening.
