Jo Malone London Musk Memento Cologne is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2024, created by Marie Salamagne. Musk Memento Cologne opens with Ambrette and Aldehydes, settles into a heart of Cedar, Iris, and Lavender, and dries down to a base of Musk, Amber, and Patchouli. Jo Malone London's Musk Memento Cologne carries a Favourite verdict, a musky-led wear.

This one is a proper head-scratcher: a clean-dirty, nostalgic-modern mash-up that's either a stroke of genius or just plain odd. Expect strong reactions, from love-at-first-sniff to headache-inducing cleaning product vibes. Definitely not a blind buy.

Given its strong sillage and longevity, this isn't exactly an office discreet scent, though its clean facets might appeal. It's too unique and potentially polarising for formal events, but its fresh and comforting qualities make it excellent for casual wear or even light everyday activities.

About

Musk Memento opens with an almost bracing, cool burst of aldehydes and the unique, slightly nutty aroma of ambrette, giving it a surprisingly fresh yet complex start. As it settles, a clean, powdery iris and aromatic lavender blend with a hint of cedar, evoking a sense of nostalgic comfort. The base reveals a dominant clean musk, anchored by earthy patchouli and warm amber, creating a scent that's both intimately soft and strikingly present.
