The Coveted Duchess Rose, released by Penhaligon's in 2016 and composed by Christophe Raynaud, is a fresh, woody rose. Woods, musk, florals and citrus are all equally strong in a short composition.
The listed notes are simple. Mandarin orange gives a juicy, sunny citrus brightness that lifts the opening. Rose is at the centre, fresh and velvety rather than heavy. Woody notes provide a dry, clean structure underneath, and musk adds a soft, skin-like finish that keeps the rose light and modern.
Most wearers report moderate longevity, some weak, and a moderate to close sillage. It is voted for spring and summer and is mostly worn by day. Marketed for women, it suits office days, lunches and everyday wear, and anyone who likes a bright, citrusy rose on a clean, woody musk base.
