Inspired Oil Perfumes English Pear & Freesia is a perfume oil. English Pear & Freesia opens with Melon and Pear, settles into a heart of Rose and Freesia, and dries down to a base of Rhubarb, Musk, Amber, and Patchouli. Inspired Oil Perfumes's English Pear & Freesia carries a Statement verdict, a green-led wear.

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.

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

In standard patch-test panels

  • Geraniol from Rose

Other declarable allergens

  • Synthetic musk Hexamethylindanopyran from Musk

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

Jo Malone's English Pear & Freesia is one of the brand's most recognisable colognes, built to feel crisp and effortless: juicy pear and melon at the top, a soft freesia-rose heart, and a whisper-light musk-amber base that barely registers. It is designed to be sheer, easy to layer, and never heavy. This oil version keeps the pear-melon opening recognisable and genuinely appealing, but the freesia and rose heart softens into a generic floral rather than the original's delicate, dewy character, and the patchouli-amber base brings noticeably more weight and warmth than the featherlight finish Jo Malone is known for. It reads as a sweeter, cosier pear fragrance rather than the crisp, transparent original, which suits an oil format better than it suits a true match.
