Jo Malone London Wild Achillea is a Cologne launched in 2023, created by Yann Vasnier and Louise Turner. Wild Achillea opens with Bergamot, settles into a heart of Nettle and Yarrow, and dries down to a base of Musk and Vetiver. Jo Malone London's Wild Achillea carries a Statement verdict, a green-led wear.

This one is a love-it-or-hate-it affair, a surprisingly tenacious green scent that channels the raw, untamed essence of a wild garden. You'll either adore its realistic, dewy foliage or find its intensity a bit too much.

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 Sport

Its intensely green and fresh character makes it perfect for casual outings, especially in nature or during warm weather. While many find it invigorating, its unique and sometimes pungent greenness might be too assertive for formal events or intimate dates, and a bit much for a quiet office.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

Declarable under EU Annex III

  • Bergamot Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Peel Oil from Bergamot
  • Synthetic musk Hexamethylindanopyran from Musk

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

Wild Achillea opens with a vibrant, almost pungent burst of green stems and sharp bergamot, evoking the scent of freshly crushed nettles and yarrow. As it settles, a clean, airy musk emerges, softening the initial verdancy without losing its inherent wildness. The vetiver remains green, suggesting foliage rather than rooty earth, culminating in a fresh, dewy countryside stroll after the rain.
