Everyone, meet Jo. Jo, meet everyone.






I would like to introduce you to someone I just met recently. Her name is Jo Malone. She is from London and she smells fantastic!




This is Jo Malone. She is from London and has a fabulous line of fragrance. Everything about this line is the quintessential definition of London. I just feel like in this picture she's like, "Ello! My name is Jo Malone and I'm British!" I have never been to London before but I really feel like Jo Malone really captures England in her line.




I had never heard of Jo Malone London before but when I started my new job I worked right across from the Jo Malone counter and SO many people asked for certain scents and wanted to know the history of the line. So I realized I needed to learn all about this Joe Malone lady and I needed to learn fast!




I first just started smelling everything in the line and Jo Malone has over 20 scents to chose from! Every single one of them smells so good and they really range from fresh citrus to warm woodsy scents.




The latest scent is Blackberry & Bay and it is AMAZING!!!! This scent comes in a candle, a perfume and a body cream. It is so light and fresh but it still has this amazing citrus scent too.




Here is a list of scents starting from fresh going to woodsy.




The citrus scents:
Lime Basil & Mandarin
Verbenas of Provence
Grapefruit

Fruity Scents:
Pomegranate Noir
English Pear & Freesia
Nectarine Blossom & Honey

Light Floral Scents:
Wild Bluebell
French Lime Blossom
White Jasmine & Mint
Red Roses

Floral Scents:
Orange Blossom
Vintage Gardenia
Blue Agava & Cacao

Spicy:
Vanilla & Anise
Nutmeg & Ginger
Amber & Lavender
Black Vetyver Cafe

Woodsy Scents:
Wild Fig & Cassis
154
Vetyver



Jo Malone is all about layering. So that makes it easier because I don't have just one favorite, I have 15. So I can mix and match and find my favorite scent...for that day and Then the next day I pick another amazing combination.



Not only can you make your own perfume scents but Jo Malone also comes in body creams and bath oils. So you can really layer them up and customize exactly to your liking. The bath oils smell amazing and you can pop some in your tub and it turns the bath water milky and makes your bathroom smell like Heaven or, what I like to do, you can rub this bath oil on damp skin after a bath or shower and use it as a body oil. It hydrates you and it smells amazing ALL day long!!! Throughout the day the bath oil just radiates off my skin and it really makes a statement. I hate buying stuff and spraying it and then you never smell yourself!! This stuff stays on all day!!




Another option you can do is you can use the body cream. It is an amazing, luxurious cream that smells great and hydrates. Then you can layer whatever scent you want on top.

Some of my favorite combos are-

Grapefruit Bath Oil & Blackberry & Bay Cologne

Lime Basil Mandarin Bath Oil & Wild Bluebell Cologne

Amber & Lavender Bath Oil & Orange Blossom Cologne
Pomegranate Noir Bath Oil & Verbenas of Provence Cologne
Now I'm not scent expert, and to each their own on the perfume combinations. Here are some suggestions from the Jo Malone website.
Grapefruit & Red Roses
Pomegranate Noir & Nectarine Blossom & Honey
Orange Blossom & English Pear & Freesia
154 & Wild Bluebell
Those are just a very few. I mean seriously, the possibilities are endless!!! Like I said, you can mix creams and colognes, bath oils and creams, oils and colognes, whatever you want!!
These are so light too that they never make my head hurt or make me sick of the smells. Sometimes I will spray something and I can't stand the way I smell by the end of the night, not these!! I LOVE them!!!




Not only do these fantastic scents come in bath oils, colognes and body creams, they also come in hand & body lotions, hand washes and some scents come in candles, diffusers, room sprays and linen sprays!!




These are amazing gifts too because the wrapping is phenomenal!!
