About the Product

Original Penguin by Munsingwear, launched in 2011, stands as a tribute to the vintage American classic style characterized by effortless elegance and sophistication. Full of the attractive image of the relaxed but clever man of fashion which loves classic and contemporary styles are this unique fragrance. Aimed to capture the fun yet delicate style inherent in Munsingwear's traditional clothing, Original Penguin Cologne is the brand's playful take on the nostalgic aspect of the garment.

Fragrance Family:

Woody Aromatic

Scent Type:

Fresh, Invigorating, Spicy

Notes:

Original Penguin Cologne opens with a lively burst of neroli and red apple, immediately capturing attention with its crisp and refreshing start. Subsequently, the heart notes take over, where a combination of black pepper and lavender turns as it is infused with the aromatic spice that this provided, which in turn, enhances its invigorative allure. The fragrance now blankets itself warmly with the blend of patchouli, sandalwood, and tonka bean, thus causing the scent to possess a woody richness which is both enduring and unforgettable and hence it brings such a perfect combination of the playfulness of freshness and the strength of masculinity.

Suggested Use

For a captivating presence throughout the day, apply Original Penguin Cologne by focusing on pulse points such as behind the ears, at the base of the neck, and on the wrists. To amplify the scent's longevity and intensity, consider using it after a warm shower when the skin is slightly damp. This technique helps the fragrance envelop your body, allowing its aromatic profile to flourish and leave a lasting impression wherever you go.

Nice Surprise

This really is a great distinguishing scent for the guy who wants to break away from the "Oh so popular/common" fragrances that everyone else is wearing. Surprised that there aren't many reviews on this one yet, but it is a relatively new product from a company that's been around for a while.

Sophisticated and Classic

The appeal for me at first was the name Penguin by Munsingwear. I grew up with and appreciated many of their products. This fragrance although I think is amazing, just did not last in my opinion. An hour or two at most for me. A pity cause I really like the fragrance, reapplying throughout the day is not an option.

Bottom Line

Yes, I would recommend to a friend.
