by Christian Provenzano

Penhaligon's LP No.9 for Men is an Eau de Parfum launched in 1999, created by Christian Provenzano. The fragrance opens with Rosewood, Bergamot, and Mandarin, settles into a heart of Orris, Rose, Jasmine, and Pepper, and dries down to a base of Patchouli, Musk, Amber, and Vanilla.

Our verdict on LP No.9 for Men: Acquired

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.
