Jo Malone London Fresh Mint Leaf is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2011, created by Christine Nagel. Fresh Mint Leaf opens with Bergamot, Basil, and Mint, settles into a heart of Rhubarb and Jasmine, and dries down to a base of Mate, Musk, and Cedar. Jo Malone London's Fresh Mint Leaf carries a Favourite verdict, a green-led wear.

This one's a fleeting flirt. It starts off invigorating, a proper fresh hit, but don't expect it to hang around long enough to hold a conversation. Ideal for those who like a quick, clean scent blast and aren't fussed about longevity.

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 Sport

Its light, fresh, and non-overwhelming nature makes it perfect for office wear and casual outings. The low projection and modest longevity mean it's not ideal for dates or formal events where more presence is desired, but it works well for a quick spritz before exercise.

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

  • Bergamot Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Peel Oil from Bergamot
  • Spearmint Mentha Viridis Leaf Oil from Mint
  • 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 an immediate energetic burst of brisk mint and vibrant basil, sharpened further by the zesty zing of bergamot. This crisp, green introduction takes a soft turn with an unexpected hint of floral jasmine and the tart, juicy lift of rhubarb, which adds a fascinating contrast. It settles into a quiet, understated base of earthy mate tea, clean musk, and dry cedar, offering a subtle, woody grounding without ever losing its initial freshness.
