By the editors · 2 min readThe Spirit of Moonflower (2000) opens with an unlikely trio — melon, gardenia, and a coriander note that introduces a faintly herbal, slightly soapy dimension. The heart is softer: cyclamen, linden blossom, and lily of the valley cluster together in a cool, watery-floral register. Jasmine and rose close the base, their warmth arriving late to soften the whole composition. It belongs to The Body Shop's early-2000s run of nature-inspired feminines: not demanding, but more constructed than the name's cottagecore branding implies.
