Jo Malone London Scarlet Beetroot is a Cologne launched in 2026. Scarlet Beetroot opens with Blackcurrant, settles into a heart of Beetroot, and dries down to a base of Patchouli. Jo Malone London's Scarlet Beetroot carries a Statement verdict, a woody-led wear.

This one's a real marmite-scent, folks. You'll either adore its quirky, earthy freshness or recoil from the beetroot. It's certainly unique and well-blended, but definitely try before you buy to see which side of the fence you land on.

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.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer

A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and summer.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Casual
Also Works:
Office Date

Its unique and generally non-intrusive character makes it suitable for casual wear and might even spark conversation on a date. However, its distinctiveness may be too bold for formal events and it's not quite fresh enough for sport.

About

Scarlet Beetroot opens with a surprising, yet artfully managed, earthy beetroot note, that's far less challenging than it sounds. As it settles, a sweet, juicy blackcurrant emerges, lifting the damp earthiness into something bright and tangy. The patchouli here isn't heavy; it's a clean, almost woody patchouli that underpins the fruit and vegetable notes, giving it structure without being overtly 'hippy'. It evolves into a distinctly modern, fresh, yet grounded scent that evokes a spring garden after a light rain.
