Ostara: Penhaligon’s

I’m never sure whether to hoard discontinued favourites, eke them out over the years, or spritz lavishly and let go.

But on a bright spring day when the wind’s so sharp it could be done for knife crime, Ostara seems like the only thing to wear.

One of the best narcissus scents in years, including every aspect from the crisp greens to the frankly filthy, I can’t believe it only had a blink-and-you’ll-miss-it production lifespan.

Nice work, @bertrandduchaufour , nice work.
