Penhaligon's - Halfeti

Halfeti by Penhaligon's is an oriental-woody fragrance for women and men, released in 2015. Created by Christian Provenzano, the composition is inspired by the mysterious Turkish town of Halfeti, famous for its dark roses. The fragrance blends exotic spices, noble woods, and sensual florals into a rich and luxurious oriental scent.

The opening is intense and aromatic, where cypress needles, saffron, cardamom, and mugwort create a cool spicy accord, brightened by the citrus freshness of bergamot and grapefruit. The heart reveals Bulgarian rose combined with jasmine and nutmeg, adding elegance and warm depth. The base is dark and sensual, with oud, leather, cedar, sandalwood, amber, vanilla, tonka bean, and musk forming a creamy oriental-woody finish with remarkable longevity and sophistication.
