Hammam Bouquet, created by William Penhaligon in 1872, is one of the oldest fragrances from Penhaligon's: a powdery floral with woody, aromatic and ambery facets. It evokes the steam and soaps of a Victorian Turkish bath.

The opening brings bergamot for a crisp citrus brightness and lavender for a clean, herbal, barbershop-like freshness. In the heart, rose and jasmine form a soft floral layer, orris root adds a cool, powdery, slightly earthy elegance and cedar a dry, pencil-shaving woodiness. The base of amber, musk and sandalwood is warm, creamy and softly sweet.

The profile suggests a refined, vintage scent with a gentlemanly character. It would suit formal occasions, evenings and cooler days, for someone who appreciates historic perfumery, powdery florals and the old-fashioned elegance of a classic English house. It is likely to feel distinctive rather than modern.
