Cairo by Penhaligon's is an Amber Floral fragrance for women and men. In the bustling streets of Cairo, there lies a hidden treasure trove that exudes elegance, luxury, and mystery. It's none other than the Penhaligon's Cairo, a scent that encapsulates the city's vibrant colours, spicy aromas, and exotic spices. The scent opens up with the heady notes of Damask rose and saffron, like a breath of fresh air amidst the city's busy hum. It then slowly transitions to the creamy and warm vanilla that sweetens the scent. The heart notes of Cypriol Oil or Nagarmotha add a touch of spice, reminiscent of the busy markets and the air heavy with frankincense and myrrh. The base notes of sandalwood, patchouli, and cedar come together in perfect harmony, like a mosaic of fragrant wood, taking us back to the historic mosques and their carved wooden screens. It's a scent that tells a story of a city steeped in history, religion, and culture.
Penhaligon's Cairo is the embodiment of elegance, mystique, and a hint of rebellion. It's the perfect fragrance for anyone who wants to embrace their inner adventurer and get lost in the city's meandering alleys, markets, and ancient landmarks. One whiff of the Penhaligon's Cairo, and you'll feel like you've embarked on a journey to the past, and the present all at once.
