Red Roses

The quiet confidence of a woman arranging fresh roses in her study, where the air carries the crispness of lemon and mint alongside the soft embrace of beeswax.

The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Red Roses by Jo Malone London was launched in 2001 and crafted by perfumers Lucien Piquet and Patricia Bilodeau. The fragrance opens with a bright citrus-aromatic note from lemon and mint, providing an invigorating freshness before the heart of Bulgarian rose and violet leaf takes center stage, offering a lush floral bouquet. The beeswax base adds a subtle warmth that grounds the composition, creating a scent that is both classic and contemporary.

How to wear it

This fragrance is best applied with two sprays to the pulse points. The top notes are bright and fleeting, while the floral heart and beeswax base unfold gradually over time, making it ideal for daytime wear when you want a scent that evolves subtly throughout the day.
