About

Tender Toy is Perfume Parlour's budget take on Penhaligon's Terrible Teddy. It opens with Incense, leads into a heart of Leather, and dries down to Ambroxan. The overall character is smoky with leather and amber facets. It is a lighter, more linear interpretation than the original - less of the expensive nuance, but the headline accord comes through clearly for casual everyday wear.
