The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Red Roses Cologne by Jo Malone London is a Floral fragrance for women and men. Launched in 2022, this scent captures the essence of red roses with a modern twist. The composition opens with the freshness of violet leaves and lemon, creating a crisp yet inviting atmosphere. At its core, a blend of Bulgarian, Turkish, Damask, May, and French rose varieties weave together to form an intricate blend of floral notes. Honeycomb adds a subtle sweetness that rounds out the fragrance without overpowering the roses. The ozonic and aquatic accords lend a clean, refreshing quality that keeps the scent from feeling too heavy.

How to wear it

This fragrance has a relatively short-lived top note, so applying it in layers can help extend its freshness. Two sprays at first and then another light mist after an hour will keep that initial burst of violet leaves and lemon prominent throughout the day.
