I can't deny that Penhaligon are masterful at blending fragrances, this one is nothing out of the ordinary. It's a prominent lavender with delicate spicing to create a fragrance which is not in your face more dignified I'd say. Clean & masculine seems to be a theme which runs through all the male focused Penhaligons but nothing groundbreaking.
Clean open but then the spice kicks in. At first thought it was like any other freshie, especially with the bottle design, but then suddenly you get a warm, spice bomb.
