Jo Malone English Pear & Freesia Eau de Cologne 30ml Spray Hand Wash the kind of white-floral centre

the kind of white-floral centre that sits light and clean rather than heady

The base is warm amber and musk

Clean enough for desk hours

Once a week is plenty unless your hair's been through the heat

and Irresistible Rose Velvet's softer floral spin

Jo Malone English Pear & Freesia Eau de Cologne 30ml Spray Hand Wash the kind of white-floral centreEnglish pear is the headline that soft, almost watery fruit note that doesn't announce itself. Freesia sits underneath, bright but not sharp, and the whole thing dries down to something closer to a clean skin scent than a perfume. 30ml Eau de Cologne, which means it's lighter and fresher than an EDP. Two sprays in the morning; reapply mid afternoon if the warmth of your neck or a sleeve brush past your face and you want the reminder.
