JO MALONE: WOOD SAGE & SEA SALT | REVIEW
9:30 AMI had hear about how wonderful Jo Malone fragrances were for ages, but had never purchased one-- or even taken a whiff! But when I read about this fragrance, I knew it would be my perfect fall scent. With notes of ambrette seeds, sea salt and sage, this is the fragrance that will take you from summer into fall and beyond.
This Jo Malone website describes the fragrance perfectly:
Escape the everyday along the windswept shore.
Waves breaking white, the air fresh with sea salt and spray.
Alive with the mineral scent of the rugged cliffs.
Mingling with the woody earthiness of sage.
Lively, spirited and totally joyful.
And it truly is a rugged, earthy perfume. The scent is fresh thanks to the sage, with earthy notes from the ambrette seeds, while a hint of salty air brings it all together. But be warned: if you like fruity or floral scents, you won't find them here. After being a strictly body spray girl for the entirety of summer, it was a nice change to go back to the heavier notes of a perfume.
There is one less-than-stellar thing about this otherwise amazing scent: it only lasts for a couple of hours before it needs to be reapplied.
But if this sounds like your type of scent-- and trust me, if you're looking for an earthy scent you want to try this-- the fragrance can be purchased from the Jo Malone website, with a 30mL bottle costing $60 and a 100mL bottle costing $120.
