Royal Night vs Hacivat

The community views this collection positively, particularly praising Vanille Absolu for longevity and comfort. However, Juniper Sling and other Penhaligon's fragrances receive criticism for requiring excessive spraying, which raises cost-effectiveness concerns despite being pleasant scents overall.

Hacivat is a divisive fragrance with strong performance and a sophisticated drydown, but its polarizing scent profile means it either resonates deeply with wearers or disappoints them. The opening pineapple-citrus blast is prominent but fades quickly, leaving an oakmoss woody base. Many find it too strong and go noseblind easily, though fans appreciate its quality and year-round versatility.
