Trinny's unexpected favourite fragrance is always sold out, but we've found some stellar alternatives
Steeped in over 120 years of tradition and luxury, it's no surprise that Trinny's signature scent is hardly ever in stock

Boasting a versatile, harmonious blend of citrus and spicy notes, Trinny's expected fragrance of choice is a best-seller of Penhaligon's - so much so, that it is almost always sold out. But, we've searched the depths of the web to scout out remaining stock, plus some standout similar scents...
There's no denying that the woman&home beauty team love a celebrity-approved beauty product, from red carpet makeup to the best long-lasting perfumes, it's quite literally part of our job to seek out A-list-approved buys. Thankfully, Trinny Woodall is never short of product recommendations and beauty top tips, whether that's her go-to curly hair serum or a helpful magnifying mirror - which you can snap up on Amazon for £19.
So, when we discovered her somewhat surprising fresh perfume of choice, we just knew we had to share the word. While the uniqueness of scent makes it a wearable option for many, it can often result in the fragrance sporting an 'out of stock' label, but we've found some quality alternatives that will make equally as nice of an investment to your perfume arsenal.
The surprising scent Trinny relies on for a fresh start to her day
While we'll happily listen to Trinny unveil the beauty buys that make up her morning routine, we must admit, we were a tad surprised when she revealed her favoured luxury perfume of choice...
RRP: £70 for 30ml | £135 for 100ml
With opening notes of citrusy lemon and lime, plus hints of freshly floral lavender, this zesty fragrance is counter-balanced by spicy notes of black pepper, pine and warming musk for a light yet long-lasting scent that can be worn both night and day. Created over a century ago by Walter Penhaligon himself, this is a fragrance that is truly soaked in the depths of history and tradition.
Trinny is known to be a fan of luxury British fragrance house, Penhaligon's, so it makes perfect sense that the brand makes home to her favoured scent. Speaking to CNN Underscored, Trinny lifted the lid as to her number one scent within her treasure trove of fragrances: “I love Blenheim Bouquet, which is actually a men’s fragrance, it’s citrusy and spicy and makes me feel so fresh and ready for my day.”
And therein lies the surprise. While many of Penhaligon's versatile scents are dubbed to be unisex, Blenheim Bouquet, which was originally created for the 9th Duke of Marlborough over 100 years ago, can often be found in the men's fragrance section of many stores. However, thanks to its versatile nature, with notes of lemon, lavender, black pepper and musk, this eau de toilette makes a great daytime scent for anyone who loves fresh perfumes with a certain element of spiciness.
What does Blenheim Bouquet smell like?
Hailed as "the scent of the British aristocracy", woman&home's very own Homes Ecommerce Editor, Laura Honey is a master perfumer and Penhaligon's expert who avidly recommends the fragrance to those who are seeking a fresh scent. If you're struggling to imagine what a sniff of this eau de toilette smells like, Laura says: "It has a zesty lemony top note, but as it settles you get some lovely herbal undertones (mainly lavender and thyme) coming through."

While this sounds like a fairly light fragrance, Laura acknowledges its surprising lasting power: "After you've worn through the clean and uplifting top notes, you'll get a woody, peppery fragrance that'll stay on your skin from the morning right through to the evening."
Penhaligon's Blenheim Bouquet Alternatives
Trinny's go-to perfume proves to be a popular choice amongst many, meaning it can be difficult to get your hands on. So, we've rounded up a few alternative scents, which boast similar spicy citrus notes, for you to snap up.
RRP: £109 for 50ml
Reminiscent of strolling through Mediterranean fields, Goutal's Eau D'Hadrien boasts citrus notes of Sicilian lemon, grapefruit and Italian green mandarin, with complementing base notes of pine-esque accord and warming musk. The result? A refreshing and alluring summery scent that is versatile enough to be worn all year round.
RRP: £40 for 50ml
Penhaligon's Bayolea exhilarating fragrance bears familiarity to the house's best-selling Blenheim Bouquet, with notable bursts of lemongrass, lavender, black pepper and musk. The bright top notes are seamlessly blended with warming heart notes of black pepper and neroli, completed with slightly masculine-edged base notes of cedar, sandalwood and amber. All in all, a truly invigorating sensual experience.
RRP: £115 for 50ml
For those looking for a fresh, aromatic fragrance, Sana Jardin's Air of Aquarius has a similar blend of notes to Blenheim Bouquet, including uplifting lemon, lavender and deep musk. This captivating scent has been therapeutically designed to open the mind, supporting meditation and emotional barriers.
