Opus 1870
Penhaligon's Opus 1870 smells like a pencil shaving, sharpened in a library, with black pepper laid over the top.
How it moves
Up top: black pepper, pink pepper and bergamot. Enjoy them; they will not stay. Underneath, rose, carnation and incense settle in and take over. Last to go: cedar, sandalwood, amber and musk.
Who made it
Bertrand Duchaufour composed it in 2007, for Penhaligon's in United Kingdom. Bertrand Duchaufour's tribute to the year William Penhaligon opened his Jermyn Street barbershop, built on pepper, incense and woods. A restrained Victorian gentleman's scent.
