Jo Malone

Scarlet Poppy

Scarlet Poppy by Jo Malone is a feminine-leaning eau de parfum from 2019 in the premium price tier. It opens with ambrette seed and fig, moves into iris and dries down to tonka bean. Expect around 7 hours of wear, and it projects at a moderate level.

Notes, explained

Opening

• Ambrette Seed The only natural musk. Pear-like, warm and slightly boozy.
• Fig Green, milky and jammy at once. One of the most interesting fruits in perfume.

Heart

• Iris Cool, powdery, slightly carroty and expensive. The luxury note.

Dry-down

• Tonka Bean Almond, hay and vanilla in one. Warm and slightly nutty.
