The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

LP No.9 for Men by Penhaligon's, launched in 1999, is an Oriental Spicy fragrance that marries warm spices with woody and powdery accords. Perfumer Christian Provenzano crafts a composition that opens with the brightness of mandarin orange and bergamot before diving into the heart of cloves, cinnamon, nutmeg, and pepper. The base notes of orris, amber, patchouli, vanilla, and musk create a warm and enveloping finish. This fragrance encapsulates the essence of Penhaligon's heritage while offering a modern take on spicy oriental scents.

How to wear it

Apply one or two sprays to your pulse points in the morning for optimal longevity. The spicy notes are most prominent initially but will evolve into a warm, powdery base by evening.
