The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 1976 by Penhaligon's and crafted by perfumers Michael Pickthall and Beverley Bayne, Night Scented Stock is a warm and spicy oriental floral that invites you into its embrace with clove and cinnamon. The heart of ylang-ylang, lily, heliotrope, violet, jasmine, and tonka bean adds layers of sweetness and warmth before settling into a base of musk, sandalwood, vanille, vetiver, and patchouli that reads as comforting powdery woods and vanilla. This fragrance captures the essence of Penhaligon's dedication to sophisticated elegance while also exuding a cozy sensuality.
Night Scented Stock has a rich base that blooms after about an hour, so apply one or two sprays initially. It reads best close to skin rather than across a room, making it ideal for intimate settings.
