Jo Malone London Amber & Lavender is an Eau de Parfum launched in 1995, created by Bertrand Duchaufour. Amber & Lavender opens with Bergamot, Lavender, and Mint, settles into a heart of Lily of the Valley, Cinnamon, and Clove, and dries down to a base of Amber, Patchouli, and Myrrh. Jo Malone London's Amber & Lavender carries a Favourite verdict, a musk-led wear.

This one's a mixed bag, love it or hate it. Many adore its classic barbershop vibe, but a significant chunk find it overwhelmingly masculine, like an old man's foul breath or cheap cleaning product. Definitely try before you buy.

Scent Profile

Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

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.

About

Opens with an aromatic hit of lavender and mint, brightened by a whisper of bergamot.
