Can you describe the scents of the two Penhaligon's soaps?

From ShopLondons:

Blenheim Bouquet
"Subtle citrus, woody musk, the exhilaration of pine: created in 1902 and named after Blenheim Palace, the home of the Dukes of Marlborough. Later a favourite of Churchill, this is the classic fragrance of England."
Top notes are lavender, amalfi lemon and lime; base notes are musk, pine and black pepper.

Quercus
"Strong , warm and assured - given a modern boost through the alchemy of citrus and amber; a good deal fresher and brighter than traditionalists might expect."
Top notes are amalfi lemon, lime, mandarin orange and bergamot; middle notes are jasmine, lily-of-the-valley and cardamom; base notes are oakmoss, sandalwood, galbanum, musk and amber.

The Floris, both 3-packs of Quercus, the Blenheim Bouquet, one Brooks Brothers, and the Acqua di Parma have sold. The Harris and the second Brooks Brothers (which I strongly suspect is tallow based) are still available.

Prices reduced to $10 for the Harris and $28 for the single remaining Brooks Brothers.

D.R. Harris withdrawn. Remaining Brooks Brothers 200g shaving soap reduced to $26 shipped.
