Red Roses Cologne (2023)

Jo Malone London Red Roses Cologne (2023) is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2023. Red Roses Cologne (2023) opens with Lemon, settles into a heart of Rose, and dries down to a base of Honey. Jo Malone London's Red Roses Cologne (2023) carries an Acquired verdict, a rose-led wear.

This one's a proper divisive rose, isn't it? For some, it's a hyper-realistic, long-lasting rose dream. For others, it's just a bit too much like your nan's loo freshener. Best to try before you buy, unless you're a devoted rose fiend.

Best For:
Date Casual
Also Works:
Formal

Its bold rose accord and considerable sillage (for some) make it a bit much for a conservative office, but suitable for more relaxed work environments. It shines on dates and casual outings due to its romantic and fresh nature, though its intensity demands a lighter hand for formal events. It's definitely not one for the gym.

About

Red Roses starts with a bright, zesty splash of lemon, giving a fresh, uplifting squeeze. Soon after, the heart unfurls into a full-bodied, authentic rose. This isn't a shy, sweet rose, but a deep, true floral scent, sometimes described as a 'dying rose petal' quality by some, or simply 'realistic' by others. As it settles, a soft, honeyed sweetness emerges, adding warmth and a hint of depth to the robust floral core.
