The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 1978, Blend 30 by Alfred Dunhill is an aromatic fougère that captures the essence of classic British elegance and automotive heritage. Perfumer Ron Winnegrad crafted this composition with a bright citrus-aromatic opening, featuring lemon and bergamot, which gives way to a heart of lavender, neroli, and rosemary. The base notes of sandalwood, cedar, patchouli, and leather create a warm, woody depth that lingers softly on the skin.

How to wear it

Apply this fragrance to pulse points for a subtle yet lasting effect. The citrus opening is bright but fades quickly, so it’s best to let the woody base notes take center stage after an hour or so.
