HeartThe Soul
The story behind the bottle.
Blasted Bloom by Penhaligon's, launched in 2015 and crafted by Alberto Morillas, is a fragrance that captures the essence of contrast and transformation. The green leaves and sea water notes open with a fresh, marine crispness, while wild berries add a touch of sweetness. As it evolves, English rose and hawthorn bring a sense of delicate floral beauty, balanced by the earthy warmth of cedar and musk. This composition is not just a fragrance but an experience that moves from the freshness of nature to the depth of woody, mossy undertones.
Start with one spray to let the marine top notes shine, then allow it to settle into its warmer base notes. This fragrance is best enjoyed close to the skin, where the mossy and woody accords can fully reveal their depth.
