Which Should You Buy?
A sparkling, mischievous citrus-green composition that brings Penhaligon's signature quirk to a crisp, modern masculine. Ideal for those who want their scent to whisper rather than shout.
A soft, sunny gourmand where bitter orange and syrupy caramel melt into a gentle patchouli base. Utterly charming for those who want a playful, sweet scent that never shouts for attention.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
Bright citrus and green notes make this ideal for spring and summer, where its effervescent freshness shines. Its subtle projection and light woody base are less suited to colder, heavy-wear months.
Occasions
Its crisp, clean character and moderate projection make it perfect for office and casual wear, and it is uplifting for active or daytime occasions. The scent is too playful and airy to shine at formal events.
Seasons
Bitter orange and caramel over patchouli read as fall and spring transitional wear; the sweetness is bright enough for spring and warm enough for autumn. Too dense for hot summer, not deep enough for deep winter.
Occasions
Gentle projection and sweet-gourmand character fit casual wear and cozy dates; light enough for office, not substantial enough for formal occasions, too indulgent for sport.
