Changing Constance, released by Penhaligon's in 2018 and presented as feminine, is equally spicy and gourmand, with woody, fresh and aromatic sides in support.
The top notes are warm and aromatic: pimento seeds, or allspice, give a clove-like warmth, and cardamom a cool, aromatic spice. In the heart, caramel brings a rich, burnt-sugar sweetness, and salt a mineral, savoury edge, creating a salted-caramel effect. The base is soft and warm: vanilla gives a creamy sweetness, tobacco a hay-like, slightly smoky depth and Cashmeran a soft, musky woodiness.
Wearers are split between moderate and very short-lived longevity, and the majority describe it as staying close to the skin. It is voted mainly for autumn and winter, and evenly between day and night. It suits cosy days, quiet evenings and intimate occasions, for someone who likes spiced salted caramel with tobacco and vanilla, and who prefers a soft, personal gourmand that wears close rather than projects. Its savoury salt note keeps the sweetness from becoming cloying.
