So it rains a lot in London! But until you have actually lived in this magnificent city, you have no idea how much it really … well, rains in London. The iconic British perfume and candlemaker Jo Malone has realised this and with their new Limited Edition range ‘London Rain’ they have captured urban life and city rains from a little drizzle to that all powering downpour in just four little bottles. Who knew it would feel fabulous to smell like the London rain.
There are four scents to choose from in the Jo Malone London Rain Limited Edition Collection:
Rain & Angelica
Glassy beads of dew, awakening a London park at dawn. A revitalising scent, enlivened with herbaceous angelica and juicy lime on an earthy base of vetiver. Aqueous and clear.
Wisteria & Violet
A soft morning shower, soaking purple wisteria cascading over London stone walls. Infused with the wet-petal scent of violets and water lily. Rain-washed and intoxicating.
White Jasmine & Mint
An afternoon cloudburst, drenching gardens exuberant with jasmine, orange flower and rose. Eccentric with its dash of scrambling wild mint. Enchanting and refreshing.
Black Cedarwood & Juniper
Midnight rain. Seductive with the carnal touch of cumin and chilli leaves. Dark with cedarwood. Humid with moss. Modern and urban.
