The story behind the bottle.
Poppy & Barley by Jo Malone London, launched in 2018 and crafted by perfumer Mathilde Bijaoui, captures the essence of English fields with a vibrant poppy top note and a cocooning base of barley. The fragrance opens with green notes and red rose to evoke the vivid colors of poppies dancing in the wind before transitioning into a warm embrace of bran absolute and white musk. This contrast between the delicate fragility of poppies and the solid warmth of barley creates a distinctive olfactory experience that is quintessentially British.
Apply two sprays to ensure that both the vibrant green and floral top notes and the warm, cocooning base of barley and white musk are present. This fragrance is best for daytime wear as it offers a fresh yet comforting scent that lasts throughout the day without overpowering.
