One of the best offerings from this house, and significantly different to anything else that they have produced thus far. The balance of ingredients in the opening is expertly done, the very spicy blend of cardammon,cinnamon and mace produce an accord so smooth and edgy that one fears that this might be a one note wonder. Thankfully, this is merely the taste of further treasures to come. Added to this opening are the sweet, yet restrained rose and jasmine notes which elevate and augment the fragrance in a seemless and effortless manner. The drydown phase is perhaps the most accomplished,with the slowly fading top and middle notes, elevated by the presence of incense and woods. Finally one is afforded the luxurious splendour of the late introduction of vanilla and tonka bean. This really is a very special creation, and I will look forward to its company on many cool days in the future

I just bought this and adore it. It is cheaper than Annick Goutals new incense but I like it more. It would be very interesting to see a pure Penhaligons perfume one day.

I love this scent. It's like a modern day opium, and yet nothing like anything from the past.

Like most strong perfumes, this one takes a little while to fully settle and bloom on one's body, however once it does, it smells of sweet spiced aromatic foams that promise desire and strength in the near future for the wearer.

It's my newist most desired perfume for a number of reasons.
1. the bottle is really tasteful and delicate.

2. the scent notes all weave together like a thick brocade, becoming completely a meshed to create one powerful singular scent, then subtly shifting like little twinkling lights, punctuating a poetic harmony of the senses.

3. The brand is also less famous in the states, and tends to be cheaper to those scents that would appeal to someone interested in this fragrance. Perfumes like Tom Ford,etc.
