Penhaligon's 2015 EDP
Ostara
Penhaligon's Ostara is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2015, created by Bertrand Duchaufour. Ostara opens with Clementine, Currant Blossom, Green, and Bergamot, settles into a heart of Hawthorn, Hyacinth, Wisteria, and Cyclamen, and dries down to a base of Woody, Musk, Amber, and Vanilla. Penhaligon's's Ostara carries a Statement verdict, a green-led wear.
This discontinued gem is a proper love-it-or-hate-it affair. For some, it's spring in a bottle: a photorealistic, green, and waxy daffodil masterpiece. For others, it's a rancid, animalic mess, with notes of decaying flowers or even urine. Definitely not a safe blind buy, but if it works for you, it's a stunning, joyous creation.
