Penhaligon's LP No.9 for Men is an Eau de Parfum launched in 1999, created by Christian Provenzano. LP No.9 for Men opens with Bergamot, Mandarin, and Rosewood, settles into a heart of Rose, Jasmine, Orris, and Ylang-Ylang, and dries down to a base of Musk, Amber, Patchouli, and Vanilla. Penhaligon's's LP No.9 for Men carries an Acquired verdict, a warm spicy-led wear.

This Penhaligon's classic is a rich, warm, spicy marvel that walks the line between traditionally masculine and seductively sweet. It's divisive; some find it a touch old-school, others a brilliant, unique statement. If you're looking for an alternative to YSL Opium Pour Homme, this could be your next signature.

About

LP No.9 opens with a bright burst of citrus and sophisticated rosewood, quickly moving to a complex heart of warm, inviting spices like clove, cinnamon, and nutmeg, underpinned by a delicate floral whisper of jasmine and ylang-ylang. The drydown settles into a comforting, musky amber with sweet vanilla and grounding patchouli, creating an overall impression of refined warmth and understated sensuality.
