Endymion

Penhaligon's Endymion is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2003. The fragrance opens with Sage, Lavender, Mandarin, and Bergamot, settles into a heart of Coffee and Geranium, and dries down to a base of Frankincense, Incense, Myrrh, and Nutmeg.

Our verdict on Endymion: Favourite

A quietly sophisticated aromatic blend, Endymion balances lavender, coffee and leather for an understated yet memorable signature. Effortlessly refined without shouting for attention.

About

Endymion Eau de Toilette opens with a brisk, aromatic rush of lavender and bergamot, dusted with sage and a hint of tart mandarin. A heart of smooth coffee and green geranium gives way to a warm, spicy base layered with supple leather, cardamom, sandalwood and resinous undertones. The overall effect is elegant and calming, with a gentle projection that lingers close to the skin, perfect for those who appreciate timeless British refinement with a modern, spicy twist.
