Gin is IT! - Penhaligon's Juniper Sling

Next time I feel like reaching for the gin perhaps I might try a spritz of this instead. Penhaligons the quintes-scent-ial British perfumers established in 1870 are keeping up-to-date. Their new perfume, Juniper Sling, although inspired by the roaring 20’s is on the pulse with Gatsby being all the rage.

Notes of juniper, cinnamon, orange brandy and vetvier, I almost do want to taste it.

£110 instore, online, or in my bag now (I wish!)
