Penhaligon's Belgravia Chypre is a story bottled in scent—an elegant, quietly rebellious whisper from West London’s most aristocratic borough. With its crisp stucco villas and stately calm, Belgravia evokes a sense of refined contradiction: poised and powerful, classic yet brimming with hidden surprises. Penhaligon's Belgravia Chypre channels this spirit into a stunning chypre perfume crafted for those who appreciate subtle luxury and depth.
Unfolding with a vivid sparkle of bergamot and juicy raspberry, this chypre perfume creates an instant impression—cool and playful with an edge of warmth. Within moments, pink pepper awakens the senses, hinting at the complexity to come. It’s a fragrance that doesn’t just speak—it converses, seduces, and lingers. As the scent matures on the skin, a rare and velvety May rose begins to bloom, mingling with the earthy essence of mate for a heart that feels both classic and daring. This aromatic symphony is anchored by a deeply rich base of patchouli, oakmoss, leather, labdanum, and rare kyara incense—creating a luxurious trail that whispers heritage and refinement.
Belgravia Chypre Penhaligon's embodies a timeless duality. One moment, it’s a floral walk in the palace gardens, the next, a smoky jazz club lit by candlelight. The fusion of opposing notes—sweet and spicy, bright and shadowy—makes this Belgravia Chypre Penhaligon's creation feel like an olfactory journey through layers of aristocratic mystery and modern sensuality. This isn’t a perfume that wears you—it evolves with you, adapting to your mood and movement throughout the day.
Crafted by master perfumer Fabrice Pellegrin, this unisex fragrance is ideal for discerning individuals who appreciate sophisticated transitions. It doesn't shout, it resonates—with every note perfectly placed, every nuance considered. From first spray to final dry-down, Penhaligon's Belgravia offers complexity, structure, and unmistakable character. The presence of smoky kyara incense and leathery undertones brings a certain nocturnal depth, making it equally suited to crisp morning air or candlelit evenings.
Whether you're navigating a formal event, closing a deal, or simply savoring a solo moment of indulgence, Belgravia Chypre offers more than just scent—it offers presence. Like the district that inspired it, it’s quietly powerful, exquisitely tailored, and unapologetically stylish.

Product Performance
On first contact, Penhaligon's Belgravia Chypre opens with a luminous trifecta—bergamot lends crisp freshness, raspberry adds juicy vibrance, and pink pepper brings subtle warmth. Within minutes, the composition evolves into a floral-woody heart where May rose, handpicked at the peak of bloom, unfolds alongside herbaceous mate.
