The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2017, Garden Lilies by Jo Malone London captures the essence of dawn at a lily pond with effervescent water lilies, dewy green sap, and lush ylang-ylang. Created by perfumers Yann Vasnier and Michael Nordstrand, this Floral Green fragrance is enhanced with white musk and a hint of vanilla to create an alluring blend that feels both fresh and comforting. The scent marries the purity of aquatic notes with the warmth of powdery florals, making it an ideal choice for those who appreciate a subtle yet captivating aroma.

How to wear it

For a lasting impression, apply Garden Lilies to pulse points. The aquatic top notes are bright but fleeting, so ensure you capture the powdery base by layering it over lotion or body wash for a more cohesive experience.
