The Favourite

The Favourite by Penhaligon's (2020) is a powdery floral woody musk that opens with a bright yet soft trio of violet, freesia, and mandarin orange. The violet's sweetness is lifted by citrus, while freesia adds a clean, airy quality. This overture quickly gives way to a heart where mimosa and iris dominate, their powdery facets amplified by jasmine sambac's indolic warmth. The overall effect is a smooth, enveloping bouquet that feels both vintage and modern.

As the fragrance settles, a base of musk, ambroxan, and sandalwood provides a creamy, skin-close finish. The musk and ambroxan create a subtle radiance, while sandalwood adds a soft woody anchor. With its high powdery and violet accords, The Favourite suits those who appreciate classic, elegant florals with a musky warmth. It's versatile for daytime or evening wear, particularly in cooler weather, and will appeal to collectors of refined, understated compositions.
