As winter exhales its last frosty sigh and spring tiptoes in with sunlight and blooms, Equinox Bloom by Penhaligon’s captures that quiet in-between moment when everything begins to awaken. This 2016 floral fragrance opens with neroli, hortensia, and violet leaf, whispering fresh, green sweetness like morning dew clinging to petals. The heart is a sunlit garden—frangipani, jasmine sambac, and orange blossom swirl together like a warm breeze carrying floral secrets. Anchoring the scent is a delectable base of brown sugar, golden Siam benzoin, and ambroxan, forming an amber-sweet finish that’s rich without being heavy. Feminine and glowing, Equinox Bloom thrives in spring or early summer, best worn for a mid-morning garden brunch or a gallery stroll in soft sunlight.
