Jo Malone London Myrrh & Tonka is a Cologne launched in 2024, created by Mathilde Bijaoui and Jo Malone. Myrrh & Tonka opens with Lavender, settles into a heart of Myrrh, and dries down to a base of Vanilla, Tonka Bean, and Almond. Jo Malone London's Myrrh & Tonka carries a Favourite verdict, a musk-led wear.

A divisive but undeniably potent amber and tonka bomb. It's a statement scent, with some calling it a winter must-have and others finding it simply too much. If you like your warmth with serious projection, this is for you.

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.

Best Occasions

Its amber and vanilla dominance make it fantastic for evenings and colder weather, particularly date nights or formal events where its strong projection can shine. However, its intensity means it can be overwhelming for a typical office environment or casual daytime wear.

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.

In standard patch-test panels

Other declarable allergens

  • Bitter almond Benzaldehyde from Almond
  • Lavender Lavandula Hybrida Oil from Lavender
  • Vanillin from Vanilla

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

Myrrh & Tonka opens with a rich, resinous myrrh, almost immediately softened by the creamy, vanilla-like warmth of tonka bean. It's an enveloping, sweet amber embrace, underscored by a subtle aromatic depth that keeps it from veering into cloying territory. Imagine a cozy, spiced blanket, with hints of a balsamic undertone providing a sophisticated edge to its sweet core.
