Key Notes of Portraits - Changing Constance

What Does Portraits - Changing Constance Smell Like

Portraits - Changing Constance by Penhaligon's unfolds with an inviting hint of cardamom, lending a subtle spiciness that is almost refreshing. This initial impression mingles with the pimento note, which adds a touch of warmth to the fragrance. The initial spiciness gradually gives way to the star of the show - the salted caramel. This note is sweet, but not overwhelmingly so. It brings a dessert-like, gourmand quality to the perfume that is both comforting and tantalizing. The creaminess of the blend is further enhanced by a soft, smooth vanilla note that emerges as the scent settles on the skin. This vanilla is not overly sweet or artificial, but rather, possesses a natural elegance. The obscure, inexplicable hint of cashmeran adds an intriguing depth to the base of the fragrance, wrapping everything up in a cloud-like softness. The faintest hint of tobacco hovers in the background, adding a surprising but welcome contrast to the sweetness. This tobacco note brings a certain richness and maturity to the scent, making it feel grounded and well-rounded. Overall, the perfume is a sweet, creamy, and slightly spicy gourmand scent with a touch of oriental flair.
