Why Jo Malone London White Jasmine & Mint Has a Following

How White Jasmine & Mint Smells: Notes & Development

White Jasmine & Mint opens with Mint, Bergamot, Cardamom and Coriander — the first impression as it hits the skin. Once that burns off, usually inside the first half hour, the heart turns to Jasmine, Ylang-Ylang, Lily-of-the-Valley and Rose. Hours in, what remains is the foundation: Vetiver, Cedar, Musk and Dried Plum.

Strip it back to the bones and the profile reads Green, Aromatic, White Floral, Fresh Spicy — the kind of profile that rewards a second and third wearing.
