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 - English Pear & Freesia Oil
Inspired By English Pear & Freesia captures the juicy pear opening well but as an oil it sits heavier and sweeter than Jo Malone's famously airy original, losing the light, almost weightless quality that made it a layering favourite.

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.

English Pear & Freesia

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer

A juicy pear-floral that reads fresh and light, best suited to warmer weather rather than heavy winter layering.

Occasions

Best For:
Casual
Also Works:
Office

Easy and unfussy enough for the office or daytime errands, without the projection for formal settings.
