Jo Malone London 2015 EDP
Rock The Ages Birch & Black Pepper
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 Mandarin, Pepper, and Cardamom, settles into a heart of Patchouli and Birch, and dries down to a base of Balsam, Vanilla, and Ink. Jo Malone London's Rock The Ages Birch & Black Pepper carries a Statement verdict, a woody-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.What our verdicts mean →

Scent Profile
Composition
Timeline
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.

Its moderate sillage and intriguing character make it suitable for a date or casual outings, where its unusual notes can be appreciated without being overwhelming.
