Christian Provenzano

"Alizarin is a dark, opulent eau de parfum introduced by Penhaligon's in 2016. Its character combines bright mandarin and narcissus with a richer floral heart of tuberose, iris, and mimosa. The drydown is built around oud, leather, olibanum, and vetiver, giving the fragrance a smoky, resinous depth. The composition is generally perceived as woody, oriental, floral, leathery, and spicy. Its polished floral elements soften the intensity of the oud and leather without removing their prominence. Alizarin is now regarded as a discontinued Penhaligon's release with continued interest among collectors."

Reviews Summary

“Alizarin is generally experienced as an intense, dark, leathery oud fragrance. Its opening has a noticeable floral brightness, while the later stages become smoky, resinous, woody, and strongly leather-led. Performance is considered above average, with strong projection and a lasting drydown; the floral facets provide polish and prevent the darker materials from feeling overly rough.”
