Description
The Portraits collection by Penhaligon's turns each fragrance into a character study. The Uncompromising Sohan is the most headstrong of the lineup — a fragrance that refuses compromise from first spray to final dry-down.
Key notes: top notes of rose, saffron and pink pepper; heart notes of vetiver and labdanum; base notes of Laotian oud and sandalwood. The saffron opens with metallic warmth and spice that balances against the romantic softness of rose; the vetiver brings earthiness that transitions naturally into the oud's resinous depth.
Laotian oud provides the structural backbone here: smoky, resinous, wrapped in the creamy warmth of sandalwood. Longevity is exceptional — this fragrance announces itself for hours and leaves a significant trail. Best suited to cooler months and evening occasions.
Beyazit Parfum carries Penhaligon's Sohan EDP 75ml at wholesale perfume pricing. Boutiques focused on niche and heritage fragrance will find this a worthwhile addition to their line-up.
