... your majesty...
A tribute to the little lilies of the valley. Everything else than "small" or intimidating comes this Prachduft from the house Penhaligons therefore.
Actually, I'm not so good with that old British brand. This one, however, is hardly surpassable for me. For me, it is one of "THE" women's fragrances par excellence and is full of unbelievable elegance. He lends the wearer an almost magical aura, he gently and empathetically lays down around her and accompanies her through a festive evening.
When the said person enters the room, the voices are silenced, the jingling of the glasses goes out, the conductor accidentally pricks himself and the mass of the opulent feast turns all its eyes to the One.
She comes down the huge steps, with one hand supporting the baroque decorated railing, with the other hand lifting the dress slightly in one place to catch each step. A warm smile adorns her face, her head slightly bent. Some ladies have to push up the jaws of their masters or give them a keken jerk with their elbows in the side to awaken them from the dream world in which they were floating.
The lady arrives at the last level and speaks with a tender voice:" only further!"
The host takes his wife's hand and leads you towards the dance floor. Despite the call of his love, not a single one moves in the magnificent hall.
You're entering the dance floor. She gives the conductor a sign, the orchestra starts playing and they dance. They dance as if their lives depended on it and with every fine twist this incredible flower spreads into the noses of the travellers. There's nothing but the music. When the dance ends, the whole entourage cheers. Now the other couples join each other on the dance floor, each eager to be near the One, the One Couple. Truly, wonderful.
Fragrance:
In no other lily of the valley fragrance can you say that all the fine ingredients are almost perfectly matched to each other. Many other smells seem clumsy or overloaded, sometimes dull and cheap. Something was created here that outlasts all the others. I admit, however, that Floris' fragrance is almost there and a little cheaper. But who cares about the price of this timeless, elegant fragrance.
A special and also very positive aspect of Penhaligons is that they are suppliers to the court of the British royal family, so they are not allowed to reformulate fragrances from this high house without further ado. This statement is directly from Penhaligons in London. That's where I took the trouble to investigate.
Durability and Sillage:
He could give more here. So at the beginning he gets the impression of a toilet s. If it isn't almost louder and more penetrating than a perfume in the beginning, it flies away more quickly. And is an Eau de Parfum, Parfum or Extrait more permanent, more even over the whole run but constant constant not comparable. Nevertheless, they are really minimal subtleties, yes, maybe I could even omit the section... BUT too beautiful it is and therefore I would wish for a little more fullness.
Flacon:
Here Penhaligons has added another one and created a new bottle, which is now even more beautiful than the old one, adapted to the others in the house.
Simply this fragrance belongs to the top three of women's fragrances.
