Penhaligon's The Favourite Perfume Ad

PENHALIGON'S The Favourite Eau de Parfum
The stage is set, the setting is Blenheim. The story concerns the mother of this majestic palace. Smoke and mirrors. Iris and musk. Manoeuvres and mystery create the most wonderful of palaces. What goes on in the shadows? Behind closed doors? She orchestrates the most grandiose of displays, conducts society and manipulates her milieu. Leave it to her, it's better that way. Jasmine toys with one's heartstrings as she begins to emerge upon a sandalwood stage."
