JO LOVES captures the things in Jo's life that inspire her, from ingredients and people to moments in time nestled within bold red packaging; the heartbeat of the brand.Here are the four scents.
- Pomelo, which Malone describes as “clean and crisp”
- Green Orange & Coriander
- Orange Tulle
- Gardenia
Here are "Jo's Notes," taken from the new JO LOVES Web site.
Green Orange & Coriander is soulful and sassy. It has a wonderfully clean smell to it, and the marriage between green citrus and herb sits beautifully and becomes very sexy. This fragrance reminds me of Sunday brunch in New York; sitting in a hotel wearing a big roll-neck cashmere sweater drinking a glass of wine in front of a log fire. It’s incredibly comforting yet at the same time it evokes a real sense of passion and warmth.
Orange Tulle is fun and flirty. It’s a fragrance which captures movement and breathes life as it’s soft floral notes dance up and down drawing you in and teasing. Orange Tulle captures an element of innocence and youthfulness regardless of age. It makes me feel 16 again! It’s a very feminine scent with a wonderful fragile element to it - almost like a bride on her wedding day. I love to wear Orange Tulle to afternoon tea with my girlfriends when for just a few hours I want to feel completely frivolous.
Gardenia is rich and regal. This fragrance walks into a room and stands out in the crowd. You can instantly feel the creaminess of the petal and the distinctive floral note, which evokes memories of beautiful Hawaiian summer days as well as hints of a winter evening. Gardenia is identifiable and distinguished in character, and I wear it when I want to feel a sense of confidence and pride.
The fragrances will retail for 95 pounds, or $148. The fragrances come in a sleek heavy glass bottles and look crisp and modern. They launched at Selfridges and at a new Jo Loves pop-up store on Mayfair’s South Audley Street.
Eventually, JO LOVES will be available to customers in the U.S. and other European countries via the JO LOVES Web site. Right now, the site says, "It is currently not possible to deliver JO LOVES online orders outside the UK mainland. We hope to be able to offer this service soon." Waaah!

Hmmm, none are really calling to me right now, although I wouldn't mind sniffing Orange Tulle. Gardenia, eh? Didn't adore Vintage Gardenia; we'll see.
ReplyDeleteI'm certain that if you want one or some of these "exclusive to London" fumies, a perfume angel will help you :-)
Lovethescents,
ReplyDeleteI know someone would help me, but I'd be asking the person to break the law by sending me fragrance through the mail. While we all agree the "hazardous material" label is ludicrous, I hate to ask friends to do that for me.
But I want!!!
Strange fragrances are "hazardous material" to us commoners, but most of them, coming from France, Japan, and Italy, miraculously appear on store shelves everywhere :-)
ReplyDeleteBy the way, who said anything about mail? There are mules :-)
I have 3 favorite scents: CHANEL
ReplyDelete#5; Fracas; and Jo Malone's Orange Blossom. I love it especially because it reminds me of a wedding. How romantic is that? I would love to get my paws on Orange Tulle.
Lovethescents, is there any other way? UPS and FedEx won't take them from us commoners either. I asked once how LuckyScent could ship if I couldn't. The answer was unsatisfactory.
ReplyDeleteNemo, if you find someone in London willing to ship, lemme know! We can split the cost. :)
ReplyDeleteOh, I wanna try them SO MUCH... But none of my friends will be in London soon =(
ReplyDeleteI know...I'm working an angle, but I'd advise everyone to find a friend in England!
ReplyDeleteCharleston girl, I want to recommend some Dolce & Gabbana products to you and your readers. I just bought the new Gems eye duo and Mauve Diamond blush from the Holiday collection. I puckered about them for days, then ordered. They are wonderful for fair-skinned blondies like us and subtle and absolutely beautiful. I can pour on the eye duo and it still looks subtle and lovely. The blush is a perfect color for us.
