Molton Brown Wild Mint & Lavandin is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2023, created by Nathalie Koobus. Wild Mint & Lavandin opens with Mint, settles into a heart of Lavender, and dries down to a base of Woody Notes and Tonka Bean. Molton Brown's Wild Mint & Lavandin carries a Favourite verdict, a green-led wear.

If you're a devotee of mint and lavender, you might just about tolerate Molton Brown's Wild Mint & Lavandin. Otherwise, expect a fleeting acquaintance, like that one mate who’s always late, pops in for 5 minutes, neck's your brew, and then has to “shoot off”. Overpriced and underperforming, it’s a hard pass for most.

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:
Summer
Also Works:
Spring

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

Best Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual Sport

Given its extreme lightness and poor longevity, this fragrance is best suited for scenarios where subtlety is key, such as the office or very casual wear. It's too airy for dates or formal events where you'd want more presence, and its fresh nature makes it suitable for post-sport refreshment, albeit a short-lived one.

About

Wild Mint & Lavandin kicks off with an invigorating, almost cooling blast of fresh mint, like a brisk morning walk. This quickly mellows, giving way to a clean, herbal lavandin heart, which brings a spa-like calm. The dry-down is subtle to the point of disappearing, with the faintest whisper of woody notes and a touch of tonka bean struggling to hold on, leaving you wishing for more substance.
