Reviews about Penhaligon's Blenheim Bouquet
This fragrance is magnificent, very atmospheric and prestigious. It creates a special atmosphere and style for its use. Naturally, it is not worth wearing without matching the appearance with that of a classic gentleman. It's like riding in a tuxedo on an old Moskvich car.
Definitely for connoisseurs.
I thank the Makeup team for their prompt delivery and another gift with my order. Keep up the good work!
Franklin could not have used this fragrance as he died in 1790. Here is a little history:
In 1704, John Churchill, the first Duke of Marlborough, won a battle at Blenheim. In gratitude, he was gifted the Blenheim Palace. In 1902, London perfumer William Henry Penhaligon created the invigorating cologne, Blenheim Bouquet, for the 9th Duke of Marlborough. For a long time, this fragrance remained exclusive to the Marlborough family, including Sir Winston Churchill.
I bought this fragrance for my husband, looking for something unique and non-trivial. It starts off with a beautiful citrusy scent, but then it blends seamlessly with other notes. We are very satisfied with it. And it also makes for an impressive gift - you can tell the story about Benjamin Franklin choking on it.
