Niche perfume brand Penhaligon's has launched a new fragrance, The Dandy, which it says has been created with “endless nights of mischief and rhythm” in mind. To live up to this enigmatic and exciting statement, the olfactory experts at Penhaligon's have created a heady blend of aromas that includes cocktails of whiskey, cedarwood, bergamot and raspberry, and packaged it in an art deco bottle that wouldn't look out of place behind a New York bar.
Creative talent
Penhaligon's is renowned for its ability to use premium ingredients, with an uncommon creative flair, to produce high-end perfumes in small batches. Founded in the 1860s, the British company has a rich heritage and was once the court perfumer to Queen Victoria. More recently, it has skilfully combined its unique British heritage with a modern sensibility to broaden its appeal, and perfumes such as 'The Favourite' for women and 'Blenheim Bouquet' for men have helped establish it as a popular brand internationally. Each bottle comes with its distinctive trademark bow tie.
Penhaligon's creativity comes to the fore in The Dandy, a perfume that will enhance the festive mood of whoever wears it and keep that feeling going well into the night.
The whisky and raspberry aromas have a mischievous edge to them, with the latter adding a playful twist to the scent. Cedarwood, with its smoky and oaky notes, has long been associated as a fragrance of the evening and has been used here to accentuate that heady whisky barrel aroma. The orange citrus notes of bergamot give it a spicy twist that will keep you feeling refreshed during the late hours of the night as you dance the night away.
The Dandy is an eau de parfum that can put you in the mood for a cocktail or two in the evening; get you ready for a night of tapping your feet to the coolest jazz in town; or get you going for a dance party with the crowd under a moonlit sky. It's a modern creation for a night of heightened senses with a unisex appeal for anyone willing to let go of their inhibitions and indulge in some “endless nights of mischief and groove.” And we think we know exactly what they mean.
