About
Halfeti Leather by Penhaligon's is a Leather fragrance for women and men. Halfeti Leather was launched in 2020. The nose behind this fragrance is Christian Provenzano. Top notes are Plum, Cardamom, Lavender, Bergamot, Citruses and Green Notes; middle notes are Nutmeg, Rose, Cinnamon, Cumin, Violet and Jasmine; base notes are Leather, Agarwood (Oud), Incense, Cedar and Patchouli. "A potion with scents so deliciously intoxicating that you will immediately fall in love with it. The fragrance is warm, strong and reassuring at the same time, ignoring all respectability. We embarked on a long journey to the Turkish city of Halfeti. In this place, the red roses seem black as their magic is intense. The story begins under the auspices of fresh and vigorous bergamot, combined with green and aromatic touches of sagebrush. It evolves brilliantly thanks to jasmine and spicy rose. It’s a love studded with thorns. The final notes contain all the promise of distant lands, affirming with certainty the vanilla, sandalwood and leather spiciness which unite the oud, amber and patchouli imbued with a reassuring distinction." -Brand info.
