The Scent of Success?
What does the remarkable success of Mr. Harrod smell like?
I want to get to the bottom of this question today. The occasion? A fragrance from the house of Penhaligon’s, available exclusively at the legendary department store Harrods.
But enough of the preamble - It opens with an intense plum note, accompanied by a slight raspberry nuance. Right from the start, oud and tobacco are also clearly perceptible. However, this is not a particularly heavy, oriental oud. Rather, subtle woody notes ensure that the scent does not feel overwhelming. It reflects the style of a British businessman even more.
As the woods gradually recede, bright flowers - led by jasmine - and spicy accents take the stage. But two main characters remain until the end: the sweet, sensual plum and the smoky-warm tobacco, reminiscent of fine pipe tobacco.
The longevity on my skin is about six hours, with the scent remaining quite close to the skin - which one would hardly expect given the intense notes. However, this makes it wonderfully wearable. Although the fragrance is officially classified as masculine, I find it absolutely unisex.
