Jo Malone London Saffron is a Cologne launched in 2013, created by Marie Salamagne. Saffron opens with Bergamot, Pink Pepper, and Incense, settles into a heart of Sandalwood, Iris, and Saffron, and dries down to a base of Woody, Musk, Amber, and Guaiac Wood. Jo Malone London's Saffron carries a Statement verdict, a woody-led wear.

This one's a proper head-scratcher. Gorgeous, unique blend of saffron and woods, but Jo Malone's usual tricks mean it vanishes quicker than your hopes of finding a full-sized bottle at a decent price. Loved by many, but its shocking performance will have you fuming.

About

Opens with a fleeting burst of spicy pink pepper and airy bergamot, quickly followed by a rich, warm saffron that takes centre stage. Creamy sandalwood and soft iris emerge, balanced by subtle smoky incense. The dry down settles into a soft, woody musk with hints of amber and guaiac wood, creating a smooth, cosy skin scent.
