Which Should You Buy?
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.
No. 895 follows Jo Malone's English Oak & Hazelnut Cologne Intense into roasted-oak-and-hazelnut territory, and the woody-nutty core is a fair likeness. It reads simpler and less textured than the original though, missing the cognac facet and clary sage lift that give Jo Malone's version its distinctive depth.

Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.
Occasions
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.
Seasons
A roasted-oak-and-hazelnut woody scent reads as warm and grounded, best suited to autumn and winter wear.
Occasions
Understated and woody, this suits quiet office days and casual wear more than dates or formal events.
