Penhaligon's Ellenisia is a full-bodied floral fragrance that delivers far more than it teases. It is unapologetic and at the same time an array of contradictions. Because one truth does not necessarily negate another. A woman (and her fragrance) can be pure as alabaster (gardenia and jasmine), yet as carnal as the body’s forbidden promise (tuberose, vanilla) and deeply romantic (violet). Delicate and powerful.
This fragrance has been discontinued.
Ellenisia features top notes of mandarin zest and violet leaf; middle notes of gardenia, rose, tuberose and jasmine; and base notes of nectar and vanilla. It is an eau de parfum, edp.
Fragrantica: "I think the scent is absolutely beautiful, such a creamy floral and so ladylike."
Fragrantica: "This perfume was originally inspired from a bouquet of a perfect wedding flower. Penhaligon’s tried to recreate the beauty (with added airy sweetness), and it's wonderful."
