How does Artemisia perform throughout a work day?+−
This fragrance is known for being very soft and intimate. While it may last for several hours as a skin scent, its projection is minimal, meaning you may need to reapply if you want it to be detectable by others throughout a full day.
Is this a good choice for someone who dislikes heavy, sweet perfumes?+−
Yes. Although it contains nectarine and vanilla, the sweetness is tempered by green leaves, oakmoss, and jasmine tea. It is more "powdery-fresh" than gourmand.
How does this compare to other Penhaligon's floral scents?+−
Compared to bolder florals in the house, like Amaranthine, Artemisia is much smoother and more restrained. It lacks "sharp" edges, opting for a blended, rounded profile that many describe as a "perfect English perfume."
Can this fragrance be worn in the winter?+−
While it is most popular in the spring and summer due to its airy green and floral notes, some users enjoy it in the winter as a clean, comforting scent that doesn't compete with heavy layers of clothing.
