There's a lovely Penhaligon's shop in Bath that I plan to visit next year with a close friend. She has a couple of female/unisex fragrances (but I can't remember which ones) and she always smells so good! She said the service at their boutiques is amazing. I'm used to the basic perfume shops where they have never heard of Dior's Feve Delicieuse or TF Tuscan Leather... I can't wait to test Penhaligon myself! Thanks for the reviews!
Hi Ronald, now that sounds a great plan! With fragrance its all abput the experience. Love Bath, we were there last year in fact. Must be my fave city to visit. If you fancy something a bit crazy and happen to be in London (excluding lock-down!), check out the Salon de Parfums on the 6th floor in Harrods. It's incredible. You can check it out here: www.harrods.com/en-gb/departments/salon-de-parfums
Elizabethan Rose is absolutely captivating and smells very much like an English Rose garden after the rain ,I have just ordered a full bottle 🤩And super excited to add my first penhaligons fragrance to my collection Lovely review and I’m thrilled you love Elizabethan Rose 🌹 Hugs Frances 🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
my hearts breaks for penhaligon... i ordered a sample set since August and it never arrived... a MILLION emails later,,, still not here.. i just gave up... did not even bother for a refund... and i was soooo excited to smell LUNA.... Love your review guys as always !!!! :)
Hi Paola, wow really sad to hear that. Have noticed that they are out of stock on a number of fragrances, perhaps COVID is causing issues with distribution. 😢 Thanks for your support as always x 😊
I have never tried any of the Penhaligon perfumes, but I do love their bottles they’re beautiful. It seems that by your descriptions it could be similar to Creed?
Hello Marybeth! Yes they do share similar DNA to Creed, although I would say Creed has the edge in performance. Well worth checking out the Penhaligon's discovery set if you can get hold of it. Seems to be sold out everywhere now! x
Hello Cheryl, Ah bless you! Glad you found our review useful! If there are any line of fragrances you would like us to review (or X vs Y) just leave a comment on any of our videos and we will see what we can do! x
Which of those scents can you recommend for young women? I have been using fruity floral Marc Jacobs scents my whole life and I am a bit afraid that penhaligon scents will not suit me
Hello mrsnoname96! Penhaligon's do lean slightly more towards the mature side, however Luna is a great 'gateway' rose fragrance as it is modern and bright with citrus, yet has beautiful rose heart. Their Scent Library is excellent value and well worth checking out: www.penhaligons.com/uk/en/categories/fragrances/discovery-sets/scent-library-000000000065151356 Hope that helps x
I have Luna and I compared a sample of it with Diptyque L Ombre Dans Leau, and their similarity is crazy. L ombre dans leau tends to be more greener and citrusy though. I am interested to try The Elisabethan Rose, The Favourite and Equinox Bloom. :)
Ah that's interesting about Luna vs Diptyque L Ombre Dans Leau. We have had our eye on 'The Favourite' for a while now, it looks beautifully floral! 😍 Here is a link to Fragrantica for anyone reading this comment: www.fragrantica.com/perfume/Penhaligon-s/The-Favourite-59836.html
I agree! I also have luna and compared it with lombre dans leau, giiiiiiiirrrrrrll true!!!! Luna also smells like jadore by christian dior on the dry down also crazy.
Sorry about that, good point. We had quite a few to get through and filming would take forever so we only usually give 10 minutes. Sometimes we allow 30 mins to an hour if we hear a fragrance takes ages to fully reveal itself.
When they announced that you had suggested to review these perfumes, I was hoping they were going to say, "By the way we're going to send you this box of samples!" 😂
Hello @황태주 - Empressa Eau de Parfum is fine for a man, and is marketed a unisex fragrance. To my nose it does lean a little female for the first hour as it begins fruity/woody, but soon becomes more musky (patchouli) and lightly spiced. I would happily wear this as a man, it's classy and refined. You will need to overspray as it does not perform for very long we discovered. Hope that helps 😊 - Andrew
