Jo Loves..£500 to spend

19 replies

Tracker1234 · 27/10/2023 11:24

Can anyone recommend perfume and body lotion in Jo's range? I have a significant £500 voucher to spend!

Dont want candles or room sprays btw and like rich body lotions. There is a shop in London and I dont live anywhere near London!

Like fruity and fresh. Dont like Pomgrate Noir from the Jo Malone range if that helps with any guidance!

Call them and see if there's a retail outlet near you that stocks it - e.g. Space NK. It's worth trying the various fragrance in the different formulations as they vary IMO - I love Pink Vetiver hand wash and body lotion but not the fragrance, for instance.

I'm going to suggest the advent calendar for similar reasons @3WildOnes . You can test a few things and see what you like. It's not bad value considering the discovery set perfumes are 2ml

BodenCardiganNot · 27/10/2023 11:36

I love the Red Truffle 21.

3WildOnes · 27/10/2023 11:40

With the discovery set you are only really paying £40 for the samples as you also get a voucher for a 100ml bottle of perfume.

Possimpible · 27/10/2023 11:44

@3WildOnes Yeah I saw that (otherwise it would be mad pricing!) but the advent also includes a voucher for a 100ml fragrance, so it's comparable.

lamalamalamasquirrel · 27/10/2023 12:09

Yes! Start with advent calendar! Or sample set.

I love the mango Thai lime

SatsumaNightmare · 27/10/2023 14:17

I’d be trying to flog the voucher and then spend the money on something you really want. I really want to enjoy Jo Loves but it doesn’t have the wow factor for me for the price point. Or the staying power.

Tracker1234 · 27/10/2023 21:41

The present was very thoughtful so I definitely won’t be flogging it!

Sorry for suggesting a room spray which is not what you want, but just to say... the Christmas tree one is gorgeous...

Pomelo is very sharp citrus, nice for summer but might be too masculine depending what you prefer. Worth a sniff though
I got it in the paintbrush which seemed ridiculous but it's actually great for in a handbag as no danger of leaking!

Also orange butterflies and mango Thai lime

PawsisShady · 28/10/2023 02:07

Reviews of them here, and they list all the notes plus perfumes they smell similar too

I agree that the pomelo fragrance is really nice. I had the Jo Loves advent calendar last year and it was a wonderful mixture of products.

IheartNiles · 28/10/2023 08:47

Where do you live? Space NK stock it and there are branches in many places.

Tracker1234 · 28/10/2023 13:55

Thank you all! What I was thinking of doing is testing at a Space NK branch and then ordering it online using Topcashback.

i don’t suppose anyone knows if they stock it at Heathrow Duty Free Terminal 3. Have looked but they only show a limited range and there are tons of brands there

I loved the grapefruit body spray but didn't like pomelo.
Green orange and coriander is my fave from the brand but not a go to for me.

WowIlikereallyhateyou · 28/10/2023 14:41

Mango thai lime or pomelo are the freshest two imho.

IheartNiles · 28/10/2023 18:16

I think Pomelo is the classic one and the best.
