Penhaligon's

Refined ingredients and history blend in Penhaligon’s fragrance collection, whose first perfume, Hammam Bouquet, was launched in 1872.
The brand was founded in 1870 when William Penhaligon opened a barbershop in the heart of London, where he attended to nobles and artists of the time. His entrepreneurial spirit led him into the world of perfume, which was later continued by his son Walter Penhaligon, proving that fragrances would become the hallmark of the brand when he created the iconic Blenheim Bouquet for the Duke of Marlborough.
Since its inception, Penhaligon’s has been associated with English nobility. Thus, in 1903, the brand received its first Royal Warrant (royal authorization as a supplier to the British royal household) from Queen Alexandra, a distinction that would be joined by several more. This relationship continues today, as evidenced by the launch of Highgrove Bouquet (2023), a fragrance created in collaboration with King Charles III, and the fact that several family members acknowledge being loyal to some of the house's perfumes.
In 1975, the iconic Wellington Street store, near Covent Garden, opened its doors, where fragrances were created and bottled in the building itself.
Among its most acclaimed collections are Portraits, which captures the spirit of British aristocracy, and Trade Routes, inspired by the luxury items arriving at the London docks in the early 19th century.
