Penhaligon's is one of the few true perfume houses in the world. They design and make their own scents, going to great lengths to achieve precise effects. Penhaligon's use fine and rare ingredients, such as hand-squeezed oil of bergamot and jasmine oil at twice the price of gold. Penhaligon's therefore speak the language of your senses.
In the late 1860's, William Henry Penhaligon left his native Penzance on the picturesque south west coast of England, and came to London to establish himself as a barber. By 1870 William had a thriving business supplying perfumes, toilet waters and pomades to the aristocracy. His first fragrance, created in 1872, was named Hammam Bouquet in honour of the famous Turkish Baths that had inspired it, and it remained his personal favourite. He secured his reputation by creating scents for the nobility. Blenheim Bouquet, created for the Duke of Marlborough, was to become a particular favourite of another distinguished scion of that family, Winston Churchill. Gentlemen's scents up to this time were usually rich and floral; Blenheim Bouquet was one of the first citrus scents created and is still recognised as a classic today. |
