Jo malone perfumes

Have pomegranate noir from the perfume parlour and it smells so like the original. My question is, what other Jo Malone perfumes are good? I am not fussed for overly sweet of fruity smells. Like musky smells best and really love pomegranate noir because it is so original. Thanks!

Thanks for your reply. Does it smell strongly of roses? Or has it other notes?

Just tried anew one - blackcurrant and something... beautiful. I also like wood sage and sea salt. They all need to be layered.
I was given samples of 2 above when I caught body cream.
Usually I wear lime basil and manadarin body lotion with French Lime Blossom cologne.

I wear wood sage and sea salt. I like deeper, woody scents rather than flowery ones. I like it and get complemented on it a lot.

Another Wood Sage & Sea Salt fan here. Also love Dark Amber & Ginger Lily.

Wood sage & sea salt for me too. It's gorgeous.

I'm not a fan of pomegranate noir, it's a bit heavy for me.

I only ever wear Red Roses and get many compliments on how I smell. Smells of Floribundas in the rain.

Wood sage and sea sAlt has terrible
Staying power on me. I have to use the body lotion as well and it’s still not great.

A shame because it is lovely

Sorry to hijack but does the wood sage & seasalt scent last?

Not at all. It's my absolute favourite though. In fact, I'd say the Perfume Parlour dupe has better staying power than the Jo Malone one (but not by much).

Primark have also brought out a range of JM dupes as well. Think it's £8 for the perfume (maybe 50ml) and £4 for handwashes (although they aren't brilliant).

I've just got a couple of Jo Malone files from perfume Parlour. Blackberry and bay and nectarine and honey (I think). Their staying power us easily as good as Jo Malone (no staying power on me at all). Weird so many of you like the Sea Salt one ... It smelt like a dodgy estate agents aftershave on me!

I have English Oak and Redcurrent, it’s lovely but not that much staying power and I like Chanel type staying power.

I'm surprised that no-one has mentioned Mimosa and Cardamon, which I love.
Red Roses was not for me at all - it gave me a headache and made me feel sickly, so much so that I returned it for a refund which was willingly given.

Love Pom and my next favourite is English pear and Freesia, then necatrine and honey. Those three layer really well with each other too (as in any combination of 2 of those, all three at same time is a bit much).

I love mimosa and cardamom, my husband bought it for me to wear on our wedding g day. Such happy memories associated with it now!

Wood Sage & Sea Salt layered under Peony & Blush Suede is beyond amazing! I love them both separately too.

I wore the two layered together on my wedding day Smile

Blackberry and Bay is gorgeous, my personal favourite is Cardamom and Mimosa though, off to light my candle of it now!
