Pernoire Luvani
Moonflower, white flowers, vanilla, incense
Luvani takes its cue from the moonflower, which opens its white petals at night and shows its beauty only in the dark. Pernoire reads that as an elegance that blooms after dark, and the name combines moonflower and vanilla. White flowers and vanilla carry the centre, with incense and resin adding depth. Pernoire makes it as an extrait at 30%, in the Odus line.

How it unfolds
-
Dusk
Moonflower, jasmine and tuberose open the scent, with incense already present at the top. These are white, heady flowers, and the incense gives them a dry, smoky edge from the first spray, so the opening feels closer to an evening garden than to a bouquet.
-
Vanilla and leaves
In the middle, vanilla and white flowers carry the sweetness, while hazelnut leaves, nutmeg and guaiac wood add a green, spicy, slightly smoky counterweight. Vanilla is the centre of the scent, as the name suggests, and the leaves and wood keep it from turning flat.
-
Resin and wood
Ambrostar, cedarwood, olibanum and white rose close the scent. The resin and wood give it a dry, quiet depth, and the white rose keeps a floral thread running to the end. It is the darkest part of the story, in keeping with the brand's idea of elegance after dark.
Wearing it
When, who and why
How to wear it
Luvani suits the evening: its flowers, vanilla and incense have the most room in cool air and low light. Spray it on the chest, the neck or the wrists, and give the incense at the top a few minutes to settle into the flowers. At this concentration, two or three sprays are sufficient.
Who it is for
For people who like white flowers but want them with some depth: vanilla, wood and incense rather than a soft, clean bouquet. It fits dinners, concerts, autumn and winter evenings. If you prefer bright, citrus-led or aquatic scents, Luvani will feel too dark and too sweet.
Why choose Pernoire Luvani
The brand starts from an image, the moonflower that only shows itself at night, and builds the whole perfume around it instead of around a trend. Luvani is made with perfumer Andreas Wilhelm as an extrait at 30%, and its flacon carries a line illustration.

Questions
Frequently asked
What is the moonflower?
It is the flower the perfume starts from: Pernoire describes it as opening its white petals at night and showing its beauty only in the dark.
Is Luvani sweet?
Vanilla is central, and the name combines moonflower and vanilla, so there is sweetness. Incense, guaiac wood, nutmeg and cedarwood keep it from being a simple sweet floral.
When should I wear it?
Evenings, autumn and winter, and occasions that call for a more present scent. In warm daytime weather, use fewer sprays.
What concentration is it?
Extrait de Parfum at 30%, from the Odus line. The concentration is high, so expect richness and weight rather than a light veil. A few sprays go a long way.

The store’s selection is really good and comprehensive. Placing an order was very easy, and shipping was really fast. The fragrances were well packed and they were all excellent. I’m very satisfied. 👍💯👍
Very good quality profume, it last long and it has a good price for its incredible aroma and mixes of fruit and wood smell
A cozy, slightly sensual vanilla that feels like warm night air by the sea. Easy to love if you enjoy gourmand perfumes with a soft smoky edge.
This perfume is really well blended, I just removed a star because I personnaly don't like the top note (citronella)
Placing the order was very easy. Shipping was very fast. I am completely satisfied.
Good cologne, love the citrus and ginger scent making it a playful combo while the tea base makes it a bit more mature. Great for the gym
FragranceGems is again really quick with their releases. I hope this one smells better than Too Damn Good. Already rating a 5 star because of previous experiences!!
Already pre-order. As always, FragranceGems is the first with good releases. Looking forward to my bottle!
The cap of the bottle came with a small part of it broken off and the glass pieces were in the box
