The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Blue Hyacinth by Jo Malone London, launched in 2017 and crafted by perfumers Yann Vasnier and Michael Nordstrand, is an intoxicating blend of bold blue hyacinth warmed by the sun. This fragrance entwines the vibrancy of garden geraniums with woody vetiver, creating a harmonious interplay between freshness and warmth. The composition opens with a fresh spicy accord that segues into floral and green notes before settling into earthy woods, making it both invigorating and grounding.

How to wear it

Apply Blue Hyacinth sparingly — its fresh spicy opening is bright but fades within an hour. The woody base notes will develop on your skin over time, so a light touch allows them to shine through without overpowering. Ideal for daytime wear when you want a scent that evolves throughout the day.
