Rock The Ages Birch & Black Pepper

by Christine Nagel

Jo Malone London Rock The Ages Birch & Black Pepper is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2015, created by Christine Nagel. Rock The Ages Birch & Black Pepper opens with Pepper, Cardamom, and Mandarin, settles into a heart of Birch and Patchouli, and dries down to a base of Balsam, Ink, and Vanilla. Jo Malone London's Rock The Ages Birch & Black Pepper carries a Statement verdict, a fresh spicy-led wear.

Divisive yet daring, this isn't for those who enjoy playing it safe. It's a bold-as-brass, smoky birch and ink affair that you'll either adore for its edgy character or dismiss as unwearable. Definitely one for the adventurous.

About

Opens with an invigorating burst of black pepper and cardamom, sharpened by a hint of mandarin. The heart swiftly introduces a strong, tarry birch, blending with earthy patchouli. The drydown unveils a unique ink note, smoky and almost medicinal, softened by rich balsam and a whisper of vanilla, creating a fascinating contrast between raw and refined.
