What do reviewers say about The Favourite and Walking On Via Fiori Oscuri?
Penhaligon's nailed the balance here. The powdery florals could easily tip into old-fashioned territory, but the warm mimosa and clean sandalwood keep this contemporary and wearable.The Favourite
This is powdery in a way that can read old-fashioned if you're not ready for it. The mimosa and heliotrope make it feel like cashmere, not candy. Bourbon vanilla in the base keeps it warm.Walking On Via Fiori Oscuri
