very interesting - does look like a concealer moth (long curved labial palpi) with very long legs ! nice spotting and good luck with the ID..
Seto, thank you very much for your help. I'll look carefully your suggestions, I think they will be very helpful.

try Cosmopterix. I have a bunch of micro moths that remain unidentified for YEARS. So I know the feeling.
I would even say a micro moth, however, this makes the ID not easier.
I agree it's a moth
some kind of cosmet moth?
