Hyacinth, galbanum, lemon — read like that it sounds simple. Penhaligon's Bluebell is not.

How it moves

Up top: hyacinth, galbanum and lemon. Enjoy them; they will not stay. Bluebell, jasmine, rose and cyclamen are where it actually lives. By evening it is cinnamon, clove and oakmoss, and it is better for it.

Who made it

Michael Pickthall composed it in 1978, for Penhaligon's in United Kingdom. A famously divisive green bluebell soliflore, reputedly worn by Princess Diana and by Margaret Thatcher. Loved and loathed in roughly equal measure.
