Her Eau de Parfum is meant to break every rule: cool cardamom and hot pimento, a salted caramel accord, and a tobacco accord underneath. The Portraits bottle is topped with a gilded antelope head.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFragrance notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eTop:\u003c\/b\u003e Cardamom, Pimento\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eHeart:\u003c\/b\u003e Salted caramel accord\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eBase:\u003c\/b\u003e Tobacco accord\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCool and hot at once\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eCardamom and pimento make up the top, and they pull in opposite directions: cardamom is cool, green and aromatic, pimento is hot, round and peppery. The brand uses exactly those words, cool and hot, and the contrast gives the opening its lively, unconventional feel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eA salted sweetness\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn the heart sits a salted caramel accord. Caramel brings a smooth, buttery sweetness, and the salt keeps it from turning cloying, so the heart reads as gourmand but grown-up. It is the unexpected note that follows the spice and the reason the perfume feels playful.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTobacco, dry and slow\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe base is a tobacco accord: dry, faintly sweet, with the character of dried leaf. It gives the caramel a dark place to settle and turns sweetness into warmth. As the spices fade, what stays is dry, smooth and softly sweet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eEvenings and cooler days\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eConstance is at home from autumn to winter and on cool evenings. Two or three sprays are enough for an Eau de Parfum with this much caramel and tobacco. Wear it to dinner, to the cinema or to a party, anywhere you want warmth with a small surprise.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eA gourmand with an edge\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eConstance is listed under the brand's fragrances for women. It suits people who like gourmand notes but want them dry and spiced rather than sugary, and who enjoy a contrast between cool and hot. If you prefer clean, fresh or floral perfumes, it may feel too warm.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy choose Penhaligon's Changing Constance\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eConstance is one of the Portraits, the house's character-driven eaux de parfum with figurine-topped bottles, and the Portraits sit beside Trade Routes, British Tales and Potions \u0026amp; Remedies in its range.
