Blaze of Glory
There’s always a whiff of scandal surrounding the latest additions to Penhaligon’s Portraits fragrance collection, and Blazing Mister Sam (SG$420/RM1,260) is no exception. Confident, keen, and decidedly forward-looking, this is a reassuringly warm, deep, and sexy fragrance that a modern man with a knack for spending freely and living fast can sport. Created with an American abroad in mind (in London, to be precise), it carries notes of hot and cold spices such as cardamom, cumin, and black pepper, layered with sensual woods, tobacco, and patchouli for that extra olfactory kick.
