Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - English Oak & Hazelnut EDC
A divisive Jo Malone outing. Some find this woody, nutty concoction a fresh, clean, office-friendly delight, while others are disappointed by its lack of hazelnut and general 'aftershave' scent. It's an understated charmer, not a crowd-pleaser.
Favourite
Our Verdict - Angles Brown EDP
Perfume Parlour's affordable interpretation of Jo Malone - English Oak & Hazelnut. Built around Hazelnut, Oak, it offers the character of the original at a budget price - a wallet-friendly alternative for fans of Jo Malone - English Oak & Hazelnut.

Season and Occasion Fit

English Oak & Hazelnut

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Autumn Winter

Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.

Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual
Also Works:
Date Formal

This scent's clean, woody, and fresh profile makes it highly suitable for office and casual wear, as many users highlight its non-offensive nature. While generally subtle, its respectable longevity for a Jo Malone scent allows for versatility, though its understated character might be overlooked in formal settings or during vigorous sport.

Angles Brown

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

The gourmand character is happiest in autumn and winter - cooler air gives the warmth room to bloom; the dupe's lighter build means it can struggle to project in the opposite season.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Office Casual

Its gourmand, woody signature leans toward evening and daily wear - approachable enough for formal use without overwhelming a room.
