Jo Malone London Green Almond & Redcurrant is a Cologne launched in 2017, created by Mathilde Bijaoui. Green Almond & Redcurrant opens with Red Currant, settles into a heart of Almond, and dries down to a base of Sandalwood. Jo Malone London's Green Almond & Redcurrant carries a Statement verdict, a fruity-led wear.

This one's a divisive Christmas cracker - far from the sweet almond many expect. Its aggressively green, bitter opening gives way to a surprisingly comforting herbal nuttiness. Love it or hate it, it's definitely not your typical Jo Malone.

About

Opens with an impactful, almost sharp green almond, more bitter than sugary. This quickly cedes to a tart and juicy redcurrant, adding a fresh, fruity zing. The whole concoction then settles into a soft, nutty, and woody dry-down, underscored by creamy sandalwood. There's a subtle sweetness, but it's far from gourmand.
