Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Honey & Crocus EDP
A creamy, comforting gourmand that's sadly discontinued, Jo Malone's Honey & Crocus is either pure marzipan heaven or play-doh hell. If you're after a snuggly, sweet almond-milk fantasy that avoids being sickly, this could be your elusive unicorn.
Favourite
Our Verdict - No.606 Honey & Crocus EDP
No.606 recreates Jo Malone's unusual honey-and-crocus pairing - a lighter, almond-tinged sweetness with a faintly barley-like warmth - capturing the cosy, tea-time character of the original at a much lower price, with less richness in the drydown.

Season and Occasion Fit

Honey & Crocus

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Autumn
Also Works:
Winter

Built for the cooler edges of the year - spring and autumn pair best.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual
Also Works:
Office

Its soft sillage and moderate longevity make it suitable for casual wear or even a date night without being overpowering. It's generally too sweet and intimate for formal events, and certainly not built for sport.
