Changing Constance
Changing Constance by Penhaligon's is a feminine-leaning eau de parfum from 2017 in the niche price tier. It opens with cardamom and pimento, moves into salted caramel and dries down to vanilla, tobacco and cashmeran. Expect around 9 hours of wear, and it projects at a moderate level.
Notes, explained
Opening
- Cardamom Cool, aromatic spice with a eucalyptus lift. Smells expensive.
- Pimento Allspice — clove, cinnamon and nutmeg at once. Hot and rounded.
Heart
- Salted Caramel Caramel with a mineral edge. Less cloying than it sounds.
Dry-down
- Vanilla Sweet, creamy and warm. The most comforting note in perfumery.
- Tobacco Sweet, dried and honeyed. Nothing like a cigarette.
- Cashmeran Musky, woody and slightly spicy. Velvety and very persistent.
