Savoy Steam Penhaligon's 2017 Eau de Parfum

Savoy Steam falls into my classic prey scheme: roses and Penhaligon's. A test was therefore inevitable.
The first impression was- surprising. It was already noted by my VorschreiberInnen, the top note is unusual and has something of bath additive (probably by the rosemary). The rose fights through but very quickly and dominates the further course.
Unusual it definitely is. I can't put my finger on exactly what it is, but the rose does seem to be steaming (perhaps the incense resin?). Or it's hazy. Or veiled. In any case, she's not a classic floral-sweet-soapy-rose. To me, she is timeless, knows no age or season. Because of this steam - mist - veil, Savoy Steam is one of the few rose fragrances that you can wear in autumn without permanently having chirping birds in front of your eyes. But do not get me wrong, the rose is quite sweet and light, just not exclusively.
The durability is actually meow on my skin. Hitverdächtig it is, however, on the clothes, quasi an upper - class - laundry spray, the whole day durchduftet.
I think I will afford this decadence in time....
