Penhaligon's The Dandy
A playful, boozy woody fragrance that sets bright bergamot and raspberry against a smoky whisky and oak heart. The Distinguished is our own interpretation of that style: fruity and fresh at first, then smooth, woody and sophisticated.
Fragrance Profile: Boozy woody
Top Notes: Bergamot, Raspberry Accord, Cedrat Heart Notes: Whisky Accord, Oak, Cedarwood Base Notes: Patchouli, Clearwood, Ambrox
Character and mood: Polished, confident and a little tongue-in-cheek, for evenings out or a statement day scent.
The Distinguished is our own original composition, inspired by the fragrance family that The Dandy belongs to. It is not an exact replica. Penhaligon's and The Dandy are registered trademarks of their owners; D&E Fragrances is not affiliated with or endorsed by them.

Being upfront about the comparison
The Distinguished is our own original composition inspired by Penhaligon's The Dandy — it is not a clone or a replica, and no inspired-by fragrance is. What you get is the same unisex scent direction and note structure, blended by hand in the UK as a long-lasting Extrait de Parfum.
Worn side by side you would recognise the family resemblance straight away, and you would also notice differences in the opening and in how it settles on your skin. We think that is a fair trade at this price, but we would rather you know exactly what you are buying.
