Constantine – Changing Constance by Penhaligon’s

Scent inspired by Penhaligon’s Changing Constance

Constantine is a fragrance of beautiful contradictions – a scent for the modern woman who is as bold as she is refined. It breaks every traditional rule of perfumery, dancing between fiery spice and cool, salted sweetness.

The journey begins with an immediate, bracing spark of Cardamom and Pimento Seeds, creating a dry, aromatic heat that commands attention. This sharp opening quickly melts into a heart of liquid Caramel seasoned with a pinch of Sea Salt. It is the scent of a sophisticated confectionary – sweet, but with an edge that prevents it from ever becoming “too much.”

As it anchors to the skin, Constantine transforms into a velvety, mysterious dry-down. The warmth of Vanilla and Cashmeran provides a “second-skin” comfort, while a whisper of Tobacco leaf adds a smoky, slightly rebellious finish. It is the olfactory portrait of a woman who is comfortable in her own skin, yet always keeps the world guessing.

Concentration: 35% Parfum Extract. The resinous vanilla and tobacco notes are amplified by our high oil concentration, giving this scent incredible staying power and a rich, enveloping sillage.

The Craft: Hand-blended in Mbombela to ensure the salt and caramel notes are perfectly balanced, preventing the sweetness from overpowering the spicy woodiness.

The Feel: Sophisticated, spicy, and unexpectedly gourmand.
