The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2017 by Penhaligon's, The Bewitching Yasmine is a Oriental Floral fragrance crafted by Marie Salamagne. It opens with the bright kick of cardamom and coffee, leading to a heart of Jasmine Sambac that exudes an enchanting warmth. This bewitchment deepens as Laotian Oud and incense blend into a smoky, balsamic base, creating a composition that is both captivating and mysterious. The woody notes of fir ground the fragrance, while Tahitian vanilla adds a touch of sweetness that lingers softly.

How to wear it

One or two sprays are sufficient to capture its essence. The smoky base develops slowly over time, so it's best applied early in the day for a full experience. This fragrance reads better close to skin than across a room, making it ideal for intimate settings.
