About This Perfume
Halfeti by Penhaligon's is a Oriental Woody fragrance for women and men. Halfeti was launched in 2015. The nose behind this fragrance is Christian Provenzano. Top notes are Cypress Leaf, Saffron, Cardamom, Artemisia, Bergamot and Grapefruit; middle notes are Bulgarian Rose, Nutmeg and Jasmine; base notes are Agarwood (Oud), Cedar, Leather, Sandalwood, Amber, Tonka Bean, Vanilla and Musk. Penhaligon`s London presents a new fragrance of their rich collection which is inspired by precious goods traded by Turkey—exotic flowers, spices, soft leather and precious materials. The fragrance was named after a small Turkish village, Halfeti, where charming Halfeti black roses bloom on the coasts of the Euphrates river. "These dark and mysterious roses are very rare and are result of unique ecological conditions in which they are grown." Halfeti is an extremely rich woody-floral fragrance whose composition is signed by perfumer Christian Provenzano. The perfume opens with a rich union of citruses, herbs and spices while blending bergamot and grapefruit with saffron, cardamom, atermisia and cypress needles. The heart develops floral notes of jasmine and Bulgarian rose combined with shades of nutmeg, while the base introduces warm aromas of leather, precious oud, cedar, sandalwood, amber, musk, tonka and vanilla. Penhaligon's Halfeti arrives in the characteristic bottle form, available as 100 ml Eau de Parfum. The fragrance is available on the official website of Penhaligon's.
