The Story

Launched in 2015, Rock The Ages Lily of the Valley & Ivy by Jo Malone London is a floral fragrance crafted by perfumer Christine Nagel. This composition opens with a fresh and vibrant blend of pink grapefruit and black currant, creating an initial burst of energy and brightness. As it settles, lily-of-the-valley takes center stage, infusing the scent with its delicate and pure essence, while narcissus adds a subtle depth. The base notes of white musk, beeswax, and amber introduce a warm, powdery undertone that grounds the freshness of the top notes.

Application Tips

Apply this fragrance liberally to enhance its longevity. The pink grapefruit and black currant notes are fleeting, so you’ll want to experience them right away. As it settles into the musky base, it becomes more intimate and warm, making it perfect for a day transitioning into an evening event.
