Penhaligon’s The Cut: Tailored Confidence, Bottled
There are fragrances—and then there’s The Cut. Penhaligon’s latest creation doesn’t whisper sophistication; it strides in wearing a perfectly tailored suit and a knowing grin. The British heritage house, with over 150 years of olfactory excellence under its belt, introduces The Cut as the newest member of its British Tales collection—a scent that redefines what it means to smell sharp.
Crafted by perfumer Paul Guerlain, The Cut takes inspiration from the polished precision of Savile Row, London’s legendary home of bespoke tailoring. Think of it as couture craftsmanship reimagined for your pulse points—a fragrance that’s less about blending in and more about standing out.
“Prone to swagger, the perfectly fitted fragrance is truly one that is dressed to impress.”
From the first spritz, The Cut commands the room. It opens with a burst of mint—cool, clean, and as crisp as a freshly pressed lapel. The cypress note weaves through with quiet sophistication, lending structure to the scent’s silhouette, while fir balsam steps in like the bold pattern lining a bespoke jacket—unexpected yet undeniably chic. Finally, vetiver grounds it all, adding that timeless touch of earthy confidence that lingers long after you’ve left the room.
Each note feels deliberate, like a tailor’s stitch—measured, meticulous, and loaded with intent. Together, they create an olfactory outfit that’s impossible to ignore: fearless, confident, and effortlessly stylish.
“The Cut captures the essence of London’s most iconic street of tailoring, where craftsmanship meets character and individuality is the ultimate luxury.”
This isn’t just perfume. It’s Penhaligon’s way of bottling charisma—the quiet kind that turns heads without trying. It doesn’t just complement an outfit; it completes it. Whether you’re stepping into a boardroom, an art gallery, or a late-night bar, The Cut is your invisible finishing touch—the pocket square of your personality.
“It is a fragrance that does not simply accompany an outfit but completes it, an invisible accessory, as powerful as a sharp suit, a silk pocket square, or a polished brogue.”
The Cut Eau de Parfum comes in 30ml and 100ml bottles, available exclusively at Penhaligon’s Pavilion Kuala Lumpur boutique, or through escentials at Suria KLCC and The Exchange TRX.
With The Cut, Penhaligon’s once again proves that storytelling and scent are cut from the same cloth—crafted with confidence, laced with eccentricity, and made to last.
Unexpectedly bold. Effortlessly elegant. Tailored to perfection.
