The Peony, A Rolls With Its Own Scent
Not many cars come with their own fragrance. The Peony is a bespoke Rolls-Royce Phantom designed for United Arab Emirates customers. It has a two-tone exterior of Pearl Blue with a contrasting Moonstone Pearl Blue and Seashell interior. The Peony is named after the peony flower and the peony leaf motif, in Oriental blue and yellow, is used throughout the car and used as an exterior logo and on the interior wood trim inlay and door capping. The tread plates use the logo and the words "Peony motif, exclusive Bespoke Phantom". The Peony fragrance has been created to match the car by Emirati perfumery HIND's Mohamed Hilal. A silver bottle comes with the car. Autoblog has shot of the peony motif interior.
The $400,000 Rolls-Royce Phantom is a big hit in the Gulf. Arabian Business reports that demand is so high that Rolls-Royce is already booked into next year and the cars haven't even officially arrived their yet.

Is it just me, or is the Phantom looking outdated (especially in this picture!)?.
