The Omniscient Mr Thompson is a 2023 fragrance from Penhaligon's that leans spicy and floral, with a creamy, sweet, slightly woody finish. Peppers and iris give it a dry, elegant feel, softened by vanilla and sesame.
The opening combines elemi, a lemony resin, with pink pepper and lavender, giving a bright, aromatic and slightly fizzy start. In the heart, black pepper adds warmth and bite, orris root brings a cool, powdery, earthy note and geranium lends a fresh rosy-green touch. The base is unusual: sesame gives a toasted, nutty creaminess, oak adds dry woodiness and vanilla rounds everything off with gentle sweetness.
Most people report moderate longevity, with a good share finding it long lasting, and sillage is mostly moderate, sometimes strong. It is voted for winter and autumn and slightly favoured for evening wear. That makes it a good fit for cold months, dinners and smart occasions, for someone who enjoys spicy, refined scents with a gourmand edge.
