The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2018 by Jo Malone London, Rose & White Musk Absolu is an embodiment of the brand's signature elegance and sophistication. Anne Flipo crafted this fragrance with a distinctive composition that does not include top notes but instead begins directly with heart notes of Damask rose essence and rose water. These floral elements are then grounded by a base of agarwood (oud), white musk, and amber, creating an enveloping warmth that feels both classic and modern.

How to wear it

Apply two sprays to your pulse points — this fragrance blooms best close to skin. The heart notes of rose are bright at first but quickly settle into a warm, enveloping base that lasts through the day.
