Jo Malone London 2009 EDC
Vanilla & Anise
by Céline Barel
Jo Malone London Vanilla & Anise is a Cologne launched in 2009, created by Céline Barel. Vanilla & Anise opens with Bergamot, Neroli, Star Anise, and Fennel, settles into a heart of Jasmine, Tuberose, Orchid, and Frangipani, and dries down to a base of Amber, Vetiver, Vanilla, and Tonka Bean. Jo Malone London's Vanilla & Anise carries a Statement verdict, a soft spicy-led wear.
This one's a proper British conundrum. Some find it a fresh, grown-up vanilla with a unique spicy kick, like a refined confection. Others say it's more medicinal fennel than delicious, with a surprisingly weak performance typical of Jo Malone. A divisive scent.

When To Wear
Best Seasons
A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.
Best Occasions
Its soft spicy and powdery accords, combined with general community consensus of light sillage and moderate longevity, make it ideal for casual wear and the office. It's a bit too subdued for formal events and not invigorating enough for sport, but could work for an intimate date.
