Bold Blend

Bold Blend from Penhaligon's, released in 2026, is a spicy green fragrance with mint, pepper and smoky woods. Spice leads for everyone who describes it, most also find it green, and a minority notice wood and aromatic herbs.

Black pepper gives a sharp, dry, sparkling heat from the start, while peppermint and mint add a cool, bracing, almost icy freshness. Violet leaf brings a crisp, green, cucumber-like note, and clary sage an herbal, slightly musky softness. The base is woody and smoky: cypress gives a dry, coniferous greenness, palo santo a sweet, smoky, slightly citrusy wood and cypriol an earthy, rooty smoke.

Unisex in spirit, it suits people who like fresh fragrances with bite rather than sweetness. The profile points to spring and autumn, daytime, the office and active days, and the smoky woods give it enough depth for evenings. Those who enjoy minty, peppery green scents with a dry woody base should find it invigorating and modern.
