Penhaligon's Hammam Bouquet Eau de Toilette
Head Notes: Lavender and Bergamot
Heart Notes: Rose Otto, Cedarwood, Orris and Jasmine
Base Notes: Amber, Musk and Sandalwood
Inspired by the scent of the Turkish Baths on Jermyn Street, Piccadilly, Hammam Bouquet is an daring oriental created by William Penhaligon in 1872. Animalic and golden, it is warm and mature, redolent of old books, powdered resins and ancient rooms. At its heart is dusky Turkish rose, with jasmine, woods, musk and powdery orris. Heady and glamorous, Hammam Bouquet is evocative of the Edwardian era of decadence and excess.
The Penhaligon's Story
Over 135 years since the doors of the
Penhaligon's barber shop first opened on Jermyn
Street, William's hugely precious archives
continue to inspire and inform everything we do.
Our passion is to carry on his incredible legacy of
creative and innovative perfumery, challenging
the traditions of the art and seeking new ways to
interpret elegance.
We continue to work with master perfumers who
can interpret our distinctive ideas; conjuring up
new perfume sensations that flow against the
tide.
A hand-written formula by
William Penhaligon
Contradictory ideas don't come bolder
than our best-selling men's fragrance Blenheim Bouquet . At its launch 1902, this was a brave new direction. Citrus based, it opposed the rich, heavy florals that were feted at the time. The world soon caught up with William's way of thinking.
Today, our scents are still made in England using the finest rare ingredients - from hand squeezed bergamot, to jasmine at twice the price of gold. Our signature Penhaligon's fragrance bottle is to William's original design: clear glass with a distinctive ribbon-wrapped stopper.
