Plum! Yum!
Admit I am not drawn to this…sounds clean & fruity, which is not my style. Seems to be all Jo Malone is doing lately.
I still need to try those London Blooms, have you tried any yet, Robin?
Plum, it may be good…I would sniff it:D.
Admittedly only very quickly on paper, but I was not impressed. For a period of 2-3 years, the JM brand seemed to be branching out, but now they appear to have gone back to the tried & true — inoffensive, clean, relatively simple fragrances, great for office wear. I’m not knocking that. Many people love them and so they fill a need. It’s just not what I’m looking for.
Interesting, but I’d rather try their recently re-released tea series, especially assam-grapefruit
I liked that one, but it can’t touch Osmanthe Yunnan 🙂
You know, I like the smell of fruit, but I just never really want the smell of fruit on me. Or hardly ever, anyway. This seems pleasant enough, and JM is usually well-done, but no lemming has been created here. Probably a good thing, too!
I do like that bottle though!
I have tried this and have a bottle waiting at NM. It is basically like wearing khaki pants, a quick “no brainer” which will smell inoffensive to all around you. It is a clean, freshly showered scent that is honestly a bit forgettable; not “signature scent” worthy. Why buy it, you ask? Some days I don’t want to over think things, and my kids seem to like these scents. (My husband says they all smell the same, so he doesn’t count!:-). Clean, pretty, fresh, not “chemically” or spicy…worth a try, and recommended as an antithesis to sugar scents for teens!
Sounds kinda nice!
Thanks for the report — that is exactly what I assumed it would be. And I keep several no brainer scents in my collection too!
Simply gorgeous bottles.
