Jo Loves
It's been five years since Jo Malone left her eponymous company, but she's certainly been busy. Jo Loves is her latest creation and she’s stuck with what she knows best - fragrance. The new brand features four scents that capture the things in Jo’s life that inspire her — from freshly washed linens, hot Moroccan mint tea, the smell of a horse’s saddle and New York in the rain. The range includes 'clean and crisp' Pomelo, 'soulful and sassy' Green Orange & Coriander, 'fun and flirty' Orange Tulle and 'rich and regal' Gardenia.
£95 for 100ml.
