Imperial Valley
Available soon
Incense, raspberry and cotton candy
La Luna Valley is a strong, unisex Eau de Parfum by Gissah, tagged gourmand, oriental and woody for autumn and winter evenings. It starts with incense, raspberry and apricot, goes to guaiac wood, cotton candy and sandalwood, and ends on amberwood, tonka bean and patchouli. Smoke, sugar and wood is an unusual mix, and a decant is the fair first step.

The composition
The curve shows the order in which the notes come forward, not their strength.
On the skin
Incense, raspberry and apricot open the perfume. FragranceGems says the deep, spiritual smoke of the incense cuts sharply through the juicy sweetness of raspberry and apricot. The result is described as fascinating from the first moment, which means opinions will split quickly.
The heart is guaiac wood, cotton candy and sandalwood. The sweet, airy cotton candy is said to melt into the dark guaiac wood and creamy sandalwood for a deep, velvety texture. This is the part that decides whether you find the perfume cosy or too sweet.
The base is amberwood, tonka bean and patchouli. The description credits the amberwood with a warm, crystalline stability and the tonka with a luxurious close on the skin. Patchouli keeps the sugar from running away with the rest.
Testing it
Wear La Luna Valley in the evening, on bare skin in cool autumn or winter air, which matches its tags. Take note of the incense in the first minutes, then of how the cotton candy changes the mood. Try it again for a special occasion, since that use is listed, to judge it in the setting it was made for.
It is listed as unisex and strong, meant for evenings and special occasions once autumn and winter arrive. It suits people who like sweet perfumes with smoke and wood underneath and who are not afraid of an unusual idea. If you prefer fresh and light, this is the opposite, so a sample saves you from a mismatch.
Cotton candy and incense in one perfume is a pairing you either enjoy or you do not, and no description can settle that for you. The 10 ml decant lets you find out over a few evenings, before you look at the 15 ml bottle FragranceGems also sells.

Raspberry, apricot and cotton candy are all in the pyramid, but incense, guaiac wood and patchouli sit against them. How sweet it feels is a matter for your skin and a few trials.
It is listed as strong and as an evening and special-occasion perfume for the cold seasons. Apply lightly at first and see how much of it you want.
No, it is not an official brand sample: FragranceGems decants it from its own bottle into a glass spray vial and adds its own label, and the house takes no part.

Timely info when item was back in stock. Some confusion with info about shipment updates on gls app but what is important: perfume came in perfect condition!
incredible fast delivery l. the fragrance itself its magnificent, the dry down woody base, is intoxicating. it last on me 10 hours plus. great service great fragrance
Good experience overall. Fast shipping without any incidents. Prices are good as well.
Really happy of my purchase. Serious seller, quality products, fast shipping, large catalog. I will order a lot of more !
Shipping was 5 days to Finland. Customer service was very good. Happy with the product also. Will shop again. Only thing I hope is that you guys would negotiate better price for GLS shipping to Finland. But I know that is not always possible. And I noticed the prices were lower than the competitors so the steep shipping price was not that big of a deal. Good job all in all.
Great shop with a fantastic selection and fast shipping. I was very happy with my order. It would have been a nice touch to receive a little sample, especially as I ordered two full-size products. ;)
Placing the order was very easy. Shipping was very fast. I am completely satisfied.
Plenty of perfumes and very good perfumes. Fast shipping. One negative. Expensive shipping from Netherlands to Greece
