Perfume
English Fern
ABOUT THE FRAGRANCE
Penhaligon’s describes English Fern as its early twentieth-century interpretation of the classic fougère, inspired by the English countryside. In the house’s archive presentation, clover and geranium sit over patchouli and moss, giving the fragrance its green woodland character.

OUR TAKE
Sharp and intensely green, but to me it veers into something medicinal with a strong cleaning-product association. Not one I enjoyed.
