Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Luna EDT
A crystalline citrus floral that glows with Penhaligon's signature refinement. Luna dazzles with fresh lemon and bergamot, layered over soft florals and a whisper of musk, delivering a diaphanous, versatile charm.
Favourite
Our Verdict - Sal Y Limon EDP
A brilliant, juicy summer zinger that nails the 'salty lemon' brief without smelling like a cleaning product - as long as you can get past the initial citrus flurry. Some reckon the performance isn't up to scratch, but most find it surprisingly good for a freshie.
