Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - English Pear & Freesia EDC
A quintessentially fresh floral with juicy pear and airy freesia, this is the ultimate everyday fragrance for those who want to smell clean, elegant and quietly radiant.
Favourite
Our Verdict - 558 English Pear & Freesia EDP
A sweeter, simpler stand-in for Jo Malone's English Pear & Freesia. The ripe pear opening is louder and more candied here, the freesia-rose heart less refined, and the whole scent flattens to a faint musk within a couple of hours rather than the cologne's soft, lingering elegance.

Season and Occasion Fit

English Pear & Freesia

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer
Also Works:
Autumn

Crisp pear, melon, and freesia make this scent supremely fresh and light, perfect for spring and summer. Its airy character is less suited to the cold of winter, but its gentle fruitiness can transition into early autumn.

Occasions

Best For:
Office Date Casual

Soft projection and inoffensive freshness make it ideal for office and casual daily wear. It is subtly romantic for a date, but too sheer for formal events or intense enough for sport.
