Grapefruit
Jo Malone London · Eau de Cologne (EDC) · 1992
≈ $170 · 100ml · approx. retail
One of Jo Malone's original, pre-Estée-Lauder-era colognes, a tart, zesty grapefruit sharpened with a pinch of paprika and rosemary over a mossy vetiver base. It remains in the current lineup essentially unchanged and is considered the house's founding statement of intent — simple, single-note-driven citrus.
