Peoneve
by Penhaligon's
Peoneve by Penhaligon's is a deeply floral, green, and naturally oriented fragrance centered around peony and rose, with prominent violet leaf and vetiver adding botanical sharpness and earthy depth. The opening is bold and fresh, dominated by violet leaf and green herbal notes, which give way to a radiant peony and rose core with subtle jasmine. The drydown reveals a soft, woody-musky base with cashmeran and vetiver, creating a clean, intimate, and earthy finish. The scent evolves into a quiet, layered floral garden mood—aloof, refined, and quietly captivating rather than loud or flashy. It is strongly perceived as feminine, practical for spring and summer, and most suitable for daywear.
