Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Wood Sage & Sea Salt EDC
A sheer, sea-breeze aroma that exudes casual elegance. Wood Sage & Sea Salt is the essence of British coastline in a bottle, beautifully airy and quietly distinctive.
Favourite
Our Verdict - 490 Wood Sage & Sea Salt EDP
490 sketches Jo Malone's Wood Sage & Sea Salt with the same three-note minimalist structure, but the mineral sea-salt accord is saltier and more one-note where the original blends it seamlessly with a softer ambrette musk.
