The Tragedy of Lord George

Try The Omniscient Mr Thompson at your own pace
The Omniscient Mr Thompson is a perfume from Penhaligon's. No note list is on record with us for this perfume, and we do not guess one. A decant gives you time with it, which a quick spray on a paper strip never does. Your own nose gets used to a scent quickly, so ask someone near you what they notice.
On request
A decant is not an official brand sample: no box, no original bottle, and we are not affiliated with the brands. Read how we fill your sample

On the skin
For Penhaligon's The Omniscient Mr Thompson no note list is on record with us. We only print notes we can trace to a source, so this page names none; wear it and judge. Write down what you notice after a few minutes and again after lunch, and you will see how it moves.
For now, Penhaligon's The Omniscient Mr Thompson can only be asked for. The form on this page records your interest in this perfume, and we make no promise about timing. Try it on a normal day, not only on a special one, to see whether it fits your routine.
For this sample, FragranceGems takes The Omniscient Mr Thompson from the original bottle and fills a glass spray vial with it. The label on the vial is ours. The smallest size covers a first impression, the largest gives you many wearings.
Testing it
We have no tags that say when Penhaligon's The Omniscient Mr Thompson fits best, which leaves the choice to you. Use it the way you would use a full bottle, on a normal day. Leave other perfumes off that day, so nothing interferes.
There is no audience on file for The Omniscient Mr Thompson, which leaves it open to anyone curious. If Penhaligon's is new to you, a small vial is a calm way to get acquainted. People who tire of scents quickly do well with small sizes.
You learn more from three wearings of Penhaligon's The Omniscient Mr Thompson than from thirty opinions about it. What you get is a decant made by FragranceGems from the original bottle, with our label. The house is not involved and it is not an official brand sample.

Yes. The liquid is taken from the original bottle of Penhaligon's The Omniscient Mr Thompson and filled into a glass spray vial by FragranceGems. The vial carries our own label, so it is a decant and not a sample made by the brand.
No note list is on record with us for Penhaligon's The Omniscient Mr Thompson, and we only print notes we can trace to a source. The sample lets you judge the perfume without a list.
Spray it on clean skin, do not rub, and check it after a few minutes, at midday and in the evening. Repeat that on a few different days before you decide about a bottle.
The brand
Penhaligon's has 'British Perfumers, Established 1870' in its header and a royal warrant crest in its logo, and it sorts its perfumes like a library: Portraits with their figurine-topped bottles, Trade Routes, British Tales. The house itself shows only three key notes per fragrance, so descriptions stay brief and characters do the talking. Whether Lord George or Halfeti suits you is a question for your skin, and a 10 ml decant answers it.

Timely info when item was back in stock. Some confusion with info about shipment updates on gls app but what is important: perfume came in perfect condition!
incredible fast delivery l. the fragrance itself its magnificent, the dry down woody base, is intoxicating. it last on me 10 hours plus. great service great fragrance
Good experience overall. Fast shipping without any incidents. Prices are good as well.
Really happy of my purchase. Serious seller, quality products, fast shipping, large catalog. I will order a lot of more !
Shipping was 5 days to Finland. Customer service was very good. Happy with the product also. Will shop again. Only thing I hope is that you guys would negotiate better price for GLS shipping to Finland. But I know that is not always possible. And I noticed the prices were lower than the competitors so the steep shipping price was not that big of a deal. Good job all in all.
Great shop with a fantastic selection and fast shipping. I was very happy with my order. It would have been a nice touch to receive a little sample, especially as I ordered two full-size products. ;)
Placing the order was very easy. Shipping was very fast. I am completely satisfied.
Plenty of perfumes and very good perfumes. Fast shipping. One negative. Expensive shipping from Netherlands to Greece
A selection of recent reviews in proportion to their star ratings.
