Jo Malone London

English Pear & Freesia Cologne, 3.4-oz.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The fragrance smells nice, light enough to wear only the person next to you can smell it. This I appreciate. But the smell didn't wow me. It's long lasting I will give it that, but I was underwhelmed by the freesia scent.

This is my signature fragrance, the compliments I receive, from both men and women, are endless still after so many years of using it. Simply love it.

SoPost sent me a sample of this. I wore it for the first time when I went on a desert safari tour. I was in the sweltering heat of the sun and it was windy so sand kept sticking to my skin. I was out there for almost 12 hours. When I went back home, I smelled my wrist and the scent was still there. It blew my mind! I also wore this on a date with my boyfriend. He couldn't stop smelling my neck and wrist because of this scent. Now, we both plan to buy a bottle each because we've found our signature scent.

I was very excited to receive this, as I love all of the notes listed - individually. Combined however, the scent becomes something that reminds me of older ladies in church. You know the type - they hug you, and you wind up smelling like them all day long. I'm going to see if this is a scent that my daughter or sisters or mother-in-law like. My loss, their gain.

Be aware- everyone will ask you what you are wearing! Hands down this beautiful scent is my signature.

I love the scent of this Jo Malone cologne. The English Pear & Freesia has a fresh clean smell. I would highly recommend this cologne.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I had never tried a perfume with freesia in it before and I dont think its for me. It was cloyingly sweet and gave me a migraine. I love other Jo malone scents but this one was not for me.

I got a sample at the Jo Malone boutique near me a few months ago and I immediately got a bottle right after finishing the sample. It was so fruity and light, like a juicy pear. This is definitely in my top 3 favorite fragrances and it's also my new signature scent. Even my friends who dislike the smell of perfumes have said this one was not offending and smelled very natural. The only cons I can think of is that it doesn't last as long due to it being a cologne instead of a toilette or parfum spray. However, it doesn't impact me as much because I have the 100mL. Overall a wonderful fragrance which I'd recommend to anyone looking into Jo Malone.
