Jo Malone London Lavender & Coriander is a Cologne launched in 2016, created by Anne Flipo. Lavender & Coriander opens with Coriander and Juniper, settles into a heart of Lavender and Wormwood, and dries down to a base of Tonka Bean and Sage. Jo Malone London's Lavender & Coriander carries a Favourite verdict, a green-led wear.

Divisive, fresh, and unapologetically green, this one's a Marmite scent. Expect sharp herbal intensity upfront that mellows into a surprisingly elegant lavender. You'll either love its unique character or find it far too 'manly'.

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:
Fall
Also Works:
Spring Summer

Built for the cooler edges of the year - autumn and spring pair best.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Casual Sport
Also Works:
Office

Its fresh, herbal nature makes it suitable for casual wear and daily use, but its moderate longevity and sillage mean it won't overwhelm an office. It lacks the gravitas for formal events and the typical sweetness for a date, leaning instead into a refreshing casual vibe.

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.

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

Lavender & Coriander opens with a bracing, almost peppery juniper and crisp coriander, giving it an immediate herbal sharpness. The heart softens as aromatic lavender emerges, blended with a hint of bitter wormwood that adds complexity. The dry-down settles into a comforting, earthy sage and a subtle warmth from tonka bean, leaving a clean yet sophisticated trail. It's a journey from bracing greenery to a tranquil, refined herbaceousness.
