Jo Malone London English Pear & Sweet Pea is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2023, created by Anne Flipo. English Pear & Sweet Pea opens with Pear, settles into a heart of Sweet Pea, and dries down to a base of Musk. Jo Malone London's English Pear & Sweet Pea carries a Favourite verdict, a floral-led wear.

This one's a divisive charmer. If you're after a beautifully fresh, delicate pear and sweet pea scent, this could be your clean, pretty dream. But beware, Jo Malone's infamous longevity issues are ever-present, and it just doesn't work for everyone's skin chemistry.

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.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer

A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and summer.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual
Also Works:
Date Sport

Its fresh, subtle floral-fruity profile makes it ideal for casual wear, especially in spring and summer, and perfectly office-appropriate due to its mild performance. However, its weak longevity and intimate sillage mean it's not impactful enough for formal events, and it struggles to stand out on dates, though some find it quite romantic.

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.

Declarable under EU Annex III

  • 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

Opens with a burst of crisp Williams pear, juicy and bright, before settling into a sweet, dewy heart of sweet pea. This is a gentle, pretty floral with a noticeable musky hum as it dries down, wrapped in a sheer, powdery sweetness that feels both clean and comforting.
