Created in 2005. A celebration of Penhaligon’s rich and
distinctive heritage.
A superbly constructed and complex elegant woody chypre.
Opening with a luxurious accord of sweet citrus and fiery
black pepper, it is instantly addictive, reaches out and
draws you in. The heart is lit by the delicacy of English
Clove Rose and the evocative temple ambience of incense. The
base notes are glorious, smoky waves of aromatic cedarwood
and sandalwood.
Opus 1870 is earthly warmth and cashmere comfort, the log
fire of our fragrances, something you want to be next to,
warmed by, strangely drawn to and captured by.
