Jo Malone LondonMyrrh & Tonka Cologne

Description Myrrh & Tonka is a warm, almond-sweet resin with a lavender lift, and one of the richest scents Jo Malone London makes. Mathilde Bijaoui of Mane created it for the Cologne Intense collection, released at the turn of 2016 and 2017. Lavender opens it, omumbiri myrrh from Namibia gives the heart its soft, slightly smoky resin, and tonka bean, vanilla and almond make the base. Reviewers describe it as unusually linear: it smells much the same from the first spray to the drydown, which is why people who love it tend to love it all day. Scent Character Sweet : 60% Smoky & Boozy : 20% Floral : 20% Translation: mostly tonka, vanilla and almond sweetness, with myrrh adding a gentle resinous shadow and lavender giving a floral, aromatic lift. Fragrance Pyramid Top: Lavender Heart: Omumbiri Myrrh Base: Tonka Bean, Vanilla, Almond Performance Longevity: Around 6–8 hours, and longer on knitwear. Sillage: Moderate. A warm aura rather than a trail. Projection: One to two feet early on, then close to the skin. Best Occasions & Season Fall and Winter, for the office and for evenings. Unisex. Skip it in summer heat, when the tonka and almond can feel heavy.
