Received a sample of this cologne.  Decided to wear it around the house while doing laundry so as not to take any chances of it giving me a raging headache.

 

This is a lovely fragrance.  Can't quite describe it.  It contains an orange essential oil.  

 

Jo Malone's fragrances tend to be rather heavy on me so I'm pleasantly surprised.

 

Anyone else like it?

Re: Jo Malone's Basil & Neroli

I have been wearing Jo Malone since 2000. My favorite is Grapefruit, although currently I love Lime Basil and Mandarin. All her fragrances appeal to me. I will check out Basil and Neroli.

Thanks!

I have never smelled that one.  Her florals can be stronger.  There is one I am really liking which is lighter - Blackberry & Bay.  :catvery-happy:

Re: Jo Malone's Basil & Neroli

@pommom. I purchased this one when it first was available. ITA that many of her others are way too strong. 

 

I love this Neroli & Basil & have been wearing it all the time.  Neroli is a leaf from an orange tree and I think the spice of the basil tones down any floral notes. I'm loving it.
