Jo Malone Thread: Share the News and Love!

[LCResz]

I've searched high and low and haven't found a dedicated Jo Malone thread, but knowing how many of us enjoy JM products I though it'd be nice to have a place where we can share upcoming news and our favorites.

My all time favorite is Blue Agava and Cacao, followed by Peony Blush Suede.

I just picked up Basil and Neroli, which to my nose is a dead ringer for Bobbi Brown Beach! As I love Beach, I think this fragrance is going to be a new fave come the spring. It is different enough from Lime, Basil, Mandarin to justify owning both in my collection. Basil and Neroli emphasizes the Neroli while LBM is heavy on the basil and lime, which give it a more herbal edge.

EDIT: Updated Jo Malone and Jo Loves perfume collection (100ml, 50ml, 30ml, dry body oils):

Be on the look out for the Blossoms Collectionin pastel colored bottles, which will have Frangipani Flower (yellow), Star Magnolia (green), Silk Blossom (pink), and Orange Blossom (orange). There will also be hair mists for Orange Blossom and Star Magnolia.

@LCResz, Thanks for posting this because I wouldn't have known to be on the lookout for these. While I was traveling I was able to smell these in the Paris airport and really liked Star Magnolia.

Spotted at my local Jo Malone boutique (Aventura Mall, Miami, FL): reissues of Wild Lilac & Rhubarb and  Iris & Lady Moore in plain bottles (not their original London Blooms packaging), as well as a plain glass bottle reissue of Silk Blossom. JM is low key reissuing old scents randomly, you won’t find them online, only in JM boutiques. Happy shopping!

@LCResz I would love to try the Wild Lilac & Rhubarb, but not Jo Malone boutique near me.  What a shame!

[LCResz]

@greeneyedgirl107  The lilac is very loud but it’s grounded by the earthy spiciness of the rhubarb, it wasn’t something I would have loved when I was first exploring JM, but it’s definitely worth a try now.

@LCResz What a great description!  THANKS 🙂  It sounds like I'd like it a lot.

New birthstone caps now available. They look gorgeous but way out of my ballpark!

trip to Michaels/joanns: lil can of bronze color spray paint $7* + big jewel(they sell Swarovski there😉) in the color of your choice $10* + lil dab of hot glue + satisfaction of not paying $330 = priceless *I'm guessing

[RGbrown]

$330 for cubic zirconia and bronze?? 😯 They're gorgeous, but that seems a tad ridiculous, especially considering they cost significantly more than the bottles they are meant to crown.

so pretty but yeah way out of my price range as well

New Cologne Intense scent now available on JoMalone directly.

Hi everyone! I recently got a sample of a Jo Malone thrown into an order, which is my first exposure to the brand. Has anyone had experience with the Wood Sage and Sea Salt scent? I kinda liked it when I gave it an initial spray after opening my order, but have yet to wear it. It’s a touch more masculine than I would normally go, but I’d be interested on anyone’s thoughts on it, how it wears etc. Or any other suggestions to try would also be appreciated!

[cianni]

@veronika23 @pocketvenus thanks for the tips ladies! I’ll definitely try out some of your suggestions!

[veronika23]

@cianni  this is one of my favorite fragrances! I wear it on its own. The down side for me is that it doesn't last that long. I heard if I use the cream with it it would help but I haven't purchased it yet. I'm waiting to get my hands on a smaller version of it to see how it works.

[pocketvenus]

@cianniif you want to feminize it, you could try pairing it with simple, clean floral. JM recommends blending with Peony & Blush. Cheaper options you could test with a rollerball might be a light tuberose a la Gucci Bloom. Margiela Tea Escape for a light jasmine infused tea, or Margiela's Flower Market for a fresh floral. Nest's Citrine for a sweeter, denser freesia and lotus. If you want to stick with JM's recommendation of pairing with peonies, Stella's Peony fragrance is a light, simple one.

Hi @cianni! I love Wood Sage & Sea Salt! I finds it’s a true unisex fragrance that makes me feel very fresh and mellow when I wear it. I think it layers beautifully with citrusy scents to make them more sophisticated and cozy.

[cianni]

@LCResz Thank you that’s good to know! I’ve never tried layering because im afraid it’ll turn into a strange mess, but now that I know citrus will work I’ll give it a try 😂

I also posted this in the Deals section: it’s a great discount directly from Jo Malone!
