Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Halfeti Cedar EDP
Halfeti Cedar is a bold, resinous statement - an opulent cedar draped in spices and dried fruit. For those who crave woody complexity with a charismatic, mysterious edge.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Rumkale Pine EDP
Rumkale Pine chases Penhaligon's Halfeti Cedar, a sweet, spiced cedar scent, and captures its arc: a saffron-peach-cardamom opening, a dried-fruit-and-cinnamon heart and a creamy cedar-vanilla base. The dupe flattens the original's rich, textured depth and trims its long sillage, wearing skin-close, but as a budget woody-spice it delivers the warm, slightly boozy cedar mood for a fraction of the price.
