Their fragrances have a way of instantly transporting you, evoking memories, moods and moments with just a single spritz. From their classic Peony & Blush Suede to the warming Pomegranate Noir, Jo Malone has always held a special place on my vanity unit. My mum had the famous Orange Blossom scenting h4r wedding and it always transports us back to a weekend full of love when we smell it.
Now, there’s a new arrival, and (yes, I know I say this every time), I think it just might be my favourite yet. Truly, if you like sexy, sensual scents let me tell you, the Jo Malone Amber and Ladbanum cologne has officially taken the hot spot as my number one scent. It couldn't be anymore different to the new Jo Malone Raspberry ripple scent!
Say hello to the Amber Labdanum Cologne Intense, Jo Malone’s latest scent, and one that’s available exclusively at Harrods. I was lucky enough to be invited to discover it with the Jo Malone team, and wow I had such a dreamy afternoon with this lovely scent.

Jo Malone London Amber Labdanum Cologne Intense
So, let's get in to the detail so that I can tell you all about this new and wonderful scent.
What does Jo Malone Amber Labdanum Cologne Intense smell like?
This fragrance is rich, warm, and sensual. Think sun soaked hills, the soft breeze of Andalusia, and wild fields of citrus in the heat. The heart of the fragrance is labdanum, a beautifully complex resin with notes of amber, incense and a little sweetness. It’s deep and evocative, certainly not your average floral or citrusy summer scent, but something much more powerful.
To me, it smells luxurious, soft yet bold, clean but sultry. It’s perfect for those balmy summer nights or when you just want to feel wrapped in warmth and sophistication.
What notes make up Jo Malone Amber Labdanum Cologne Intense?

Base: Amber: soft, golden, comforting
Crafted by Jo Malone London’s Global Head Of Fragrance Céline Roux and master perfumer Yann Vasnier, Amber Labdanum Cologne truly celebrates the depth and beauty of labdanum. The result is one of the most luxurious and long-lasting Jo Malone scents I’ve ever worn.
