Penguin, also known as Original Penguin, is an American line of clothing that dates back to 1955 when the Original Penguin golf shirt was launched by Munsingwear in Minneapolis. The adorable penguin has graced the clothing and bottles of all types of Penguin perfume for the company ever since.
The company’s signature scent, Original Penguin cologne, offers a clean, refreshing, woody aromatic fragrance. While the company’s roots go all the way back to the 1950s, this first foray into the fragrance business was launched in 2011 and has a decidedly contemporary feel to it. The cologne includes top notes of apple and neroli, a sweet, somewhat metallic essential oil from bitter orange tree blossoms. The heart of the cologne consists of lavender, pine, and spicy pepper. The fragrance is anchored by a base of musk, patchouli, and vanilla.
Other notable scents by Original Penguin include Original Blend and Premium Blend, both released in 2016. Original Blend is a marine scent with an opening fragrance of crisp apple, Italian bergamot, and kaffir lime. Heart notes include lavender, shaved nutmeg, and brushed suede. The base of the cologne includes amber, musk, and sandalwood. Premium Blend is an aromatic aquatic cologne, with top notes of bergamot, lime, and mint, followed by sea salt, violet, and rosemary, and a base of driftwood, musk, and vetiver.
