Penhaligon’s The Inimitable William Penhaligon ~ new fragrance

Posted by Robin on 17 November 2020 5 Comments

Penhaligon’s has launched The Inimitable William Penhaligon, a new addition to their Portraits collection. 

Majestic and chic. Like a good friend, stimulating and comforting in equal measure. Like great art and music, uplifting. Composed in expert, meticulous detail, but with strong, confident brush strokes - William Penhaligon's own scent. ​

Beyond distinguished. A timeless classic, since 2020. Created with Vetiver, one of perfumery's master ingredients. Earthy, warm and fresh. Woven inside an Oriental structure, one of perfumery's mistresses of sophistication.​

Additional notes for the woody oriental include bergamot, jasmine, incense, cedar, sandalwood and ambrox​.

Penhaligon’s The Inimitable William Penhaligon is available in 75 ml Eau de Parfum.

    A timeless classic since 2020 ?I do like the way they get away with a satire of their own audience!

    Penhaligon’s is not among my favorite houses. That said, I’ve never turned my nose away from anything with vetiver and Incense. ?

      I dislike this bottle enough that I’d just as soon not love the juice…but yes, vetiver and incense always sounds good.
