The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

The Revenge Of Lady Blanche, crafted by Daphné Bugey and launched by Penhaligon's in 2016, is a fragrance that weaves together green, floral, and powdery accords into a captivating narrative. The composition opens with the freshness of hyacinth and narcissus before diving into the heart where iris and angelica bring a delicate balance of earthy warmth and spicy vibrancy. Sandalwood anchors the base, providing a soft, comforting backdrop that allows the floral notes to shine.

How to wear it

This fragrance has a moderate longevity, so apply it to pulse points for a lasting effect. It's best worn close to skin rather than sprayed liberally into the air, as the powdery and floral notes are most effective when they're near you.
