Penhaligon's Recipe for Perfectly Layered Scent
Layers of Love
Discover the art of layering through Penhaligon's tried and tested recipe for creating a long-lasting scent.
How might one create a recipe for perfectly layered scent?
Well, a decadent five course affair of delicious scents ought to suffice. Luxurious elixirs, divine Bath & Body delights, lotions, potions and – how could we forget? – more perfumed wonders than you’ll know what to do with. My, my, one’s nostrils certainly are bigger than one’s stomach.
The Ingredients
COPY: One’s Signature Scent…..A Spritz
Body & Hand Wash…...A Dash
Body & Hand Lotion….A Dollop
Dry Body Oil…………….A Splash
Hair Perfume…………….A Mist
Mystery ensues as rose, fruits and spice tangle in a radiant, softening Dry Body Oil.
Cleanse hands and body with Halfeti’s heady potion of rose, fruit and spice.
The Method
1.) Sink into the tub and lather oneself if Penhaligon’s Body & Hand Wash until squeaky clean and refreshingly fragrant.
2.) Once dry, a tuppence sized dollop of Body & Hand Lotion leaves skin soft with a light veil of one’s signature scent.
3.) To leave a lasting impression, a glaze of Dry Body Oil makes for a presentable and perfectly perfumed individual.
4.) For a fragrance that lingers, lightly spritz one’s pulse points with a scent of your choosing. For best results: Use the same scent throughout this process.
5.) To add a touch of finesse, mist one’s tresses in Penhaligon’s Hair Perfume.
