Penhaligon's A Balm of Calm Eau De Parfum

Penhaligon's A Balm of Calm Eau De Parfum is a luxurious, fragrant remedy designed to instantly dispel worries and promote serenity. As a core part of the esteemed Potions & Remedies Collection, this scent harnesses the perfumed power of nature to bring health, strength, and vitality to life. The fragrance opens with the aromatic lullaby of lavender, complemented by uplifting bergamot, leading into a soft, floral cloud of geranium and iris. This composition establishes a comforting, high-quality aromatic profile.

This unique blend is classified as a woody fougère, a classic structure reinvented for modern tranquility. The true depth of the 'calm' is found in the base notes, where rich sandalwood and soft woods provide a creamy, lasting foundation. A subtle, unexpected hint of rum rounds off the blend, adding a comforting warmth that feels like a gentle embrace. This intricate balance ensures the scent is both fresh and grounding, making it an instant remedy for moments of stress.

The primary benefit of A Balm of Calm is its therapeutic quality. It is a carefully curated formula intended to quiet the mind and promote peace, transforming daily rituals into moments of luxurious self-care. It serves as a reminder that there is a remedy for every ailment, bottled beautifully by Penhaligon's. Use cases include applying it as a daily signature scent, or specifically utilizing its soothing properties during high-stress periods or as part of a relaxing evening routine before sleep.

To maximize the experience, apply the Eau de Parfum to pulse points—such as the inner wrists, neck, and behind the ears—where body heat helps project and sustain the fragrance throughout the day. This application method ensures you receive the full effect of the calming notes from the initial spray to the soft, woody dry-down.
