Oops, here I come!

With the Potraits Collection, the house of Penhaligon's has reinvented itself again and taken a new direction. The new collection deals with fictional people of the good old English style and describes their character traits. However, all fragrances are first designed to be different than they first appear.

The Blazing Mr. Sam - a sparkling mister? Last name Sam? Uncle Sam! Ah an American?
That's right, Mr. Sam represents an American who appears with great self-confidence and is a guest of the family of Lord George, Countess Dorohty and Co.
Mr. Sam is loud, sprawling and pays no attention to rules of etiquette. Yet all the guests hang riveted to his lips and listen to his conversations. Some find him a bit redneck, others can't get enough of their exotic guest.

Penhaligon's has implemented this just great: a bull with horns, spicy and strong notes such as pepper, cardamom, cinnamon, saffron meet soft vanilla, tobacco,. A real Headturner the fragrance. Cuddly, but still with the head through the wall. And if you overdo it with the spraying, then it can quickly become too much.

A really really good fragrance. The overall picture pleases me very much. He fits super in the fall or winter. Discreetly used, it even fits into the office setting.
The only problem I have is that I cardamom, cinnamon, saffron, patchouli, amber / vanilla in the combination have already smelled very often and the fragrance is partially covered to 90% of Halfeti Cedar, Dolci di Giorno, Oud Malaki, Sotoor Waaw, Enclave.

Really heavy bottle, extremely heavy and pointed metal cap, dark blue juice. In any case, a valuable packaging.
