Basil & Neroli

Jo Malone London · Eau de Cologne (EDC) · 2016

≈ $170 · 100ml · approx. retail

A fresh, herbal riff on the house's signature basil accord, pairing it with bittersweet neroli and a clean white-musk-vetiver base instead of the citrus-heavy Lime Basil & Mandarin formula. It's a lighter, more transparent alternative aimed at fans of the brand's classic aromatic-citrus register.
