Penhaligon's - An obituary of headless, vegetarian scents, tenth strike
Chyping
Posy means translated as bouquet. And there couldn't be a better name for this fragrance, as Victorian Posy embodies the olfactory diminutive. I'm thinking of a little house with flowers in the garden and trees next to it, a little house with a garden above a cliff on a small sea under a shining son Penhaligon's Victorian Posy shows clear parallels to the two years older Ormolu from the same house. Both clear representatives of the chypre genre, Ormolu is already not one of the usual Wumms bombs. Victorian Posy is even more lovely and milder. Although the combination of jasmine and rose with camomile on the typical moss bed is common to both. Victorian Posy, however, implements the theme even more subtly, elegantly and vividly. The wonderful, obligatory citric hesperidic opening certainly plays a role, but probably also the more discreet, elegant appearance and the green tone. Ormolu represents his roots as a chypre of the late seventies more vehemently, makes no secret of it. Victorian Posy, on the other hand, is also very harsh, almost strict, but remains more reserved overall and does not seem so obviously out of date today.
Ladies and Gents, I present to you Victorian Posy aka Chypchen, sister of Ormolu.
Which unfortunately, like his older sister, is already in early retirement.
