Penhaligon's Artemisia

Floral, fruity, vanilla-soft, musky, and powdery.

Top Notes: Nectarine, Green Notes

Heart Notes: Jasmine Tea, Green Apple, Violet

Base Notes: Vanilla, Musk, Sandalwood

Artemisia opens with nectarine and fresh green facets before jasmine tea, green apple, and violet create a delicate floral-fruity heart. Vanilla softens the drydown with creamy warmth while musk and sandalwood add a smooth, powdery foundation. The sweetness remains restrained, allowing the fruit and tea-like florals to stay clear. The result is gentle and polished, balancing bright fruit, soft petals, vanilla, musk, and woods without becoming syrupy or heavy.

Summary

Artemisia is a soft floral-vanilla Eau de Parfum that layers juicy fruit, delicate flowers, and a creamy musky base. Nectarine gives the opening gentle brightness before jasmine tea, green apple, and violet make the heart airy and slightly green. Vanilla adds restrained sweetness while musk and sandalwood smooth the drydown. The result feels comforting and powdery rather than dessert-like. It suits shoppers who want an elegant everyday floral with fruit and vanilla softened by clean musk and woods.

About the Brand

Penhaligon’s is a British fragrance house with roots in 19th-century London, known for combining traditional perfumery with eccentric storytelling and distinctly British presentation. Its catalog ranges from heritage signatures to modern releases and the character-driven Portraits collection, spanning florals, woods, citrus, spices, leather, amber, and gourmand themes. Artemisia shows the softer, more comforting side of that range. Nectarine and green notes lead into jasmine tea, apple, and violet before vanilla, musk, and sandalwood create a smooth powdery base. The fragrance fits Penhaligon’s ability to make polished, classically composed scents feel approachable and characterful without relying on excess sweetness or heavy projection.
