Penhaligon's 2015 EDP
Blasted Bloom
Penhaligon's Blasted Bloom is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2015. Blasted Bloom opens with Red Fruits, Sea Water, and Green Notes, settles into a heart of Hawthorn, Rose, and Pink Pepper, and dries down to a base of Musk, Cedar, and Oakmoss. Penhaligon's's Blasted Bloom carries an Acquired verdict, a green-led wear.
This one's a head-turner, and not always in a good way. Blasted Bloom is a seriously divisive aquatic powerhouse, blending marine notes with a robust green rose. Expect some to adore it, others to recoil - there's no middle ground here.What our verdicts mean →

Scent Profile
Composition
Timeline
Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

When To Wear
Best Seasons
Built for the cooler edges of the year - spring and autumn pair best.
Best Occasions
Its impressive strength and projection make it tricky for a conservative office setting, but it excels in casual, outdoor environments where its fresh, aquatic nature shines. It's a bit too bold and unconventional for formal events, though some might find its unique character intriguing for a date.
