Rock The Ages Tudor Rose & Amber

The quiet intimacy of an old library where books are lined with leather bindings and the air is infused with the scent of aged paper and warm spices, just before a rare book is opened.

The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Christine Nagel crafted Rock The Ages Tudor Rose & Amber for Jo Malone London in 2015, creating a fragrance that marries the warmth of amber and musk with the freshness of rose and spicy notes. This composition begins with an invigorating blend of pink pepper and cloves, which gives way to a heart of damask rose and ginger. The base notes of patchouli and white musk create a rich, enveloping warmth that lingers on the skin.

How to wear it

For best effect, apply this fragrance to pulse points in the morning. The spicy top notes will fade within two hours but the rich amber and musk base notes will continue to evolve throughout the day, creating an enduring warmth close to the skin.
