The Story

Launched in 2015, No. 33 Eau de Cologne by Penhaligon's is crafted by perfumer Mike Parrott to embody the essence of an aromatic fougère with a fresh spicy twist. The composition opens with a bright blend of clary sage and bergamot, giving way to the warmth of coriander and cardamom in its heart. The base notes of musk, cedar, and tonka bean add a subtle depth that feels both modern and lasting.

No. 33 Eau de Cologne is a fragrance that captures the spirit of Penhaligon's heritage while pushing boundaries with its intricate blend of spicy and woody accords.

Application Tips

This fragrance blooms best when applied to pulse points — wrists and neck. The aromatic top notes are bright but fleeting, so layering it over a moisturizer can help extend its longevity throughout the day.
