Jo Malone London Plum Blossom (2017) is a Cologne launched in 2017, created by Fabrice Pellegrin. Plum Blossom (2017) opens with Plum, settles into a heart of Plum Blossom, Jasmine, and Ylang-Ylang, and dries down to a base of Musk and Sandalwood. Jo Malone London's Plum Blossom (2017) carries an Acquired verdict, a floral-led wear.

This one is a real head-scratcher for Jo Malone fans. Some find it beautiful and fresh, others are completely underwhelmed by a generic, shampoo-like scent. Given the price, there's a strong chance you'll feel short-changed, so sample first.

About

Opens with a sweet yet subtly tart splash of plum, quickly blossoming into a creamy, almost tropical floral heart of jasmine and ylang-ylang. The plum blossom itself adds a delicate, airy sweetness. It settles into a soft, clean base of sandalwood and white musk, which can lean soapy on some skin. Ultimately, it’s a bright, if sometimes indistinct, fruity-floral experience.
