I agree with others who consider it elegant, fresh, and neat. I love it, although I would have liked it to last longer since the price is high for a toilet water. On my skin, it projects for about an hour, then stays close to the skin and disappears in less than four hours. Overall, I really like Penhaligon’s fragrances, but they always fall short on longevity and performance.
Missfragancias
Agree with others that it looks elegant and polished. I love it, though the high price for a body mist isn’t justified by its longevity. On my skin, it lasts about an hour at arm’s length and less than four hours before it disappears. I like Penhaligon’s, but they always lack in longevity and performance.
necano
Clean, fresh, and with a classic touch. At first, it smells like green water, but in the heart, it’s a rose soliflore. For what it offers, there are similar options at a quarter of the price. I don’t recommend spending money on it due to a lack of originality and an outrageous price.
Pau_mayu
A citrus fragrance that never fails, quite fresh and clean. I see it more for spring and summer, and if it’s unisex, I see it equally for men and women. The longevity in my case was acceptable, or moderate depending on what is expected here.
Pau_mayu
A foolproof citrus scent, fresh and clean. I see it as ideal for spring and summer. I think it’s truly unisex, just as good for men as for women. Longevity was acceptable or moderate in my case, according to the ranges on this website.
strwabreries
An extremely clean and citrusy scent. I don’t dislike it, but it doesn’t quite convince me. You can find something similar for much less.
lacampos
A fresh-cool fragrance, charming, fully unisex with the appeal of a clean and revitalizing scent.
lacampos
Fresh-cold, charming, and fully unisex. It has that clean, revitalizing perfume appeal.

I went to Penhaligon’s in London to smell two fragrances I thought I’d like, but they turned out to be heavy. I was looking for something floral with jasmine and clean, knowing they wouldn’t last long. The salesperson sprayed Luna and Empressa on my arms. Both smelled great! After waiting 15 minutes for them to dry, I checked that Luna had better staying power. My husband first said it smelled old (probably the others), but once it dried, it changed completely! I came back the next day to buy it. Once showered and applied to clean skin, it smells divine and lasts hours on skin and clothes. I use it on my neck, nape, arms, and clothes without reapplying. It’s an EDT for any season or moment. Floral with musky notes, perfectly unisex. Citrus notes at the start (lemon, orange, bergamot), then floral (rose, jasmine) and a musky base of fir and ambergris. A brand marvel. They gifted me cream, soap, and lotion, and the bag includes perfumed paper to smell sophisticated and royal. Tip: give them time, smell them dry, and don’t buy blindly. They’ll surprise you.
Dama Incognita
Like another fragrance from the house, Juniper Sling, it carries berries and citrus, but the difference is that its scent is softer, and I can say even more feminine, possibly due to the influence of the rose.

On sunny early days, almost spring, I wear Luna which I bought in winter and now it shines. I feel its magic; the notes blend to create a citrus, green, slightly distant yet elegant and close scent. If I only lived in this climate, I’d choose it as my signature fragrance.
Curazao
I bought it blind and it has become my go-to fragrance.
wildkatzen
From a decant I bought, I must say it’s very good, unisex. Opening is talc-like bergamot, Spanish jasmine (those who know it know it’s fragrant, sometimes heavy, with very clear notes) that quickly transitions to a non-red rose, more like a quince, with a light aroma that blends with the resinous juniper. A rare but interesting mix, and the Ambergris is just as sticky as Rasasi La Yukawa Am Shower.

As I mentioned before, the quality of this eau de toilette is noticeable, but what really surprised me was that spectacular transformation when the base notes kicked in. I’ve never been so captivated by an eau de toilette. It’s perfect for my daily routine: a sunny spring Sunday where you need to take a break from heavy scents without losing elegance.
Eric Rosetti
Super refreshing fragrance that I won’t hesitate to wear during the hot summer months. It’s the only one I know, and I already know I’ll be using it in the summer season. It smells clean, fresh, and of superior quality.
