Penhaligon's Blasted Heath is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2015. Blasted Heath opens with Sea Water, Seaweed, and Clary Sage, settles into a heart of Whisky, Green Notes, and Tobacco, and dries down to a base of Musk, Cedar, Vetiver, and Patchouli. Penhaligon's's Blasted Heath carries a Statement verdict, a woody-led wear.

This one's a proper divisive marine scent, perfect for those who want to smell like a windswept British coast, seaweed and all. You'll either love its bracing, realistic take on the sea, or find it utterly repulsive. Not for the faint of heart or the calone-averse.

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

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.

Date

Its potent marine and woody accords, noted by some as 'insanely long lasting', make it too assertive for a polite office. However, its unique 'cold beach' vibe and strong projection mean it shines in casual settings or even on a date, for those who appreciate its distinct edge.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

Blasted Heath plunges you into a bracing blast of salty sea air, spiked with green, almost medicinal clary sage and damp seaweed. It quickly moves to a boozy heart of whisky and unlit tobacco, underpinned by an earthy, slightly herbal greenness. The dry down is a robust base of vetiver, patchouli, and cedar, offering a rich, woody warmth that lingers like a storm-battered coastline.
