The guaiac wood and an atypical patchouli (that's pretty close to the vetiver type used here) are what I observe FAR more strongly than the voting indicates, and along with the clary sage challenge the combo of dewey "greens" and seaweed for overall dominance in my brain. The guaiac & clary sage are VERY strong after the open and mostly what I notice through the mid, then the patchouli/vetiver combo comes in getting heavier when the rest begin to fade. Once noticed, those grassy woods stay the dominant smell through the end, or at least MY end as I've never kept Blasted Heath on long enough to ever GET to its end! For the "Stronger-for-Longer" fragrance generation this should be on their test list when looking for a high-quality marine scent.

I asked when is Penhaligon ever going to release an aquatic scent and the representative serving me said that they were going to release one soon, but unfortunately, it's not for sale yet. However, he let me sample it from their sample vials. This is an aquatic lovers dream. But maybe a lucid weird dream. It's definitely a unique take on marine aquatics. storied English perfume brand Penhaligon’s has launched two new fragrances Blasted Heath and Blasted Bloom composed for the house by master perfumer Alberto Morillas who was inspired by the poetry of the nation’s island landscape – in particular the wild coasts of Scotland – where the land meets the sea, to create these intriguing perfumes. Fragrance Notes: Penhaligon’s The Favourite features notes like green violet leaf, narcissus flower, rose, powdery orris, powdery amber, vanilla, and musk. It’s a sophisticated and floral fragrance with powdery and creamy undertones.There's a bitter citrus note that is not listed too, which makes the scent mandarin-like fresh, but that is really not prominent. The nose who created Blasted Bloom and its more masculine partner, Blasted Heath, is Alberto Morillas, "who was inspired by the poetry of the nation’s island landscape – in particular the wild coasts of Scotland – where the land meets the sea, to create these intriguing perfumes", according to Caroline Simpson in Glass Magazine. Where I live, the weather is always warm and humid. Day Time temperatures range from 30 - 37 degree Celsius. It smelled synthetic, cloyingly sweet floral mixed with mud if I were to describe it.

I got tempted and bought a full bottle (blind buy) for a very good price. I must say that I kind of expected how it would smell. For many others this wouldn't be a safe blind buy, so be aware. Update on longevity: Blasted Heath stayed on my skin through the night and was still going strong when I woke up the following(this)morning! A solid 16hrs plus, even after my shower.
