Penhaligon's 1996 EDC
Quercus
Penhaligon's Quercus is a Cologne launched in 1996, created by Christian Provenzano. Quercus opens with Bergamot, Lemon, Mandarin, and Lime, settles into a heart of Jasmine, Lily Of The Valley, and Cardamom, and dries down to a base of Musk, Amber, Sandalwood, and Oakmoss. Penhaligon's's Quercus carries a Favourite verdict, a citrus-led wear.
A sparkling rush of citrus and green, Quercus is the ultimate crisp-shirt cologne: refined, discreet, and effortlessly uplifting. The longevity is modest, but the clarity and British charm are unmatched.

Best Seasons
Brilliantly fresh citrus and green notes make Quercus ideal for spring and summer, where its clean effervescence shines. Its light airy character fades quickly in cold weather.
Best Occasions
Discreet projection and a crisp, uplifting profile make this perfect for office and casual daytime. Its non-intrusive sillage suits sport and active settings, while lacking the gravitas for formal evening.
