Fragrance was great, the price tag ... Not so much
I was pleasantly surprised by the fragrance as it isn't something I would usually go for but it was lovely and suited me very well. The packaging was eye catching but I think the price of the product would most definitely put me off.

Strong specific scent
It’s a long last scent but it is not fully what I expected from the description of the scent. The packaging was average generic sample size it’s a very specific scent I would not say an everyday one.

Smells good but not my scent
This smells very good and the scent lasts all day. However , this is not the type of scent I would have picked for myself. Has a whiskey aroma with some sweet spices notes
Customer review from Penhaligon's US
Very Nice!
The Dandy Eau de Parfum by Penhaligon’s has a very nice smell and crafted for those who enjoy a bold, nighttime fragrance. Designed with inspiration from whisky cocktails and art deco aesthetics, this eau de parfum combines notes of raspberry, bergamot, cedarwood, and smoky oak to create an intriguing scent. The blend delivers a playful, fruity opening with a zesty freshness from bergamot, followed by rich, woody undertones evocative of whisky barrels. This fragrance is appealing to those who enjoy sophisticated, slightly mischievous scents with a vibrant yet deep character. The packaging reflects its concept, featuring art deco-inspired designs in black and gold with Penhaligon’s signature bow tie, reminiscent of elegant whisky bottles. This could either be worn during the day to work or on a night on the town. My husband really enjoyed the smell of this.

The Dandy is a luminous blend of bright patchouli,
Upon the first spray, The Dandy makes quite an impression. The opening is a burst of booziness paired with spicy woods, immediately drawing me in. The patchouli takes center stage here, but it’s not the dark, earthy, chocolatey kind—it feels bright, almost sparkling, with a “clear” quality that reminds me of citrus peel, textured with its little bumps, crooks, and valleys. The colors that come to mind? Rich browns, glowing golds, and warm ambers. As the fragrance develops, the initial brightness softens, and a mysterious woodiness emerges. It’s as though the scent invites you to lean in closer, to explore its hidden depths. The dry down is enveloping, like stepping into a dense forest of spicy, textured woods. It’s grounding yet keeps a touch of intrigue that holds your attention. Interestingly, while there’s a hint of sweetness here, it doesn’t feel fruity—it leans more toward the warmth of boozy woods, a subtle richness rather than a syrupy vibe. Longevity is where I found myself wanting more. The scent stayed on my skin for about four hours, and with such an evocative composition, I wished it lingered just a little longer. Overall, The Dandy is a refined and textured fragrance. It invites you into its world of clear, luminous patchouli and layered woods, offering a fleeting but memorable experience.
