Jo MaloneEnglish Pear & Sweet Pea3.945 ratingsI didn’t sleep well last night, so needed something to perk me up and carry me to the right side of Friday. Wearing both with the Sweet Pea hand cream for extra sweet fruity floral prettiness that’s fresh, dewy and clean.
My sweet peas have gone to seed, so some pretty petunias from my garden instead.

I just smelled the pear one like an hour ago 😅 so good!!
Curlyhen@curlyhen
No way.. which one? The sweet pea or freesia?

Oh sleepy head already, but the freesia one is what I meant haha. My sister had it around the house and I had never smelled, so I put it on a post-it and it’s definitely a mood lifter!

lol. The sweet pea one is super fresh, but the freesia has some woods and patch that balances it a bit.

Ugh it's so hard to sleep in this heat isn't it? But this is a lovely fresh, clean, feminine classic - uplifting and pretty 😍

I live in this heat all the time BUT we do it with A/C. I cannot even imagine 😞. Hoping it breaks for you soon 🤞🏻

Hope you get some rest - naps are your friend! Nice choices, I have avoided Jo Malone ever since I heard longevity is a problem…is that overblown?
Curlyhen@curlyhen
I think it’s overblown or constantly in comparison to popular ‘beast mode’ scents. There’s a few that aren’t good (Wood Sage & Sea Salt, stunning but disappears after an hour) and others, like a favourite of mine, Pomegranate Noir, last 12hrs on me. But they are colognes, so they aren’t pretending to be anything other than what’s advertised and fir this you get some beautiful natural accords but the compromise is longevity because synthetics beast mode mush’s aren’t present? The English Pear and Sweet Pea last around 6hrs for me. But I should caveat that with saying that I think I have a sensitive nose so longevity has never been something I’ve worried about much. So JMs do fine by me, but on the other hand I avoid Mulger’s because I find them too strong?

love this. thank you - I may just sample a few and see how they do! Generally I’m not obsessed with longevity but I like to get a few hours. No need for mugler here 😂

It’s been a long day. Only getting to catch up with my WhatScent fam now. Went to pop on some L’Occitane Hand Balm, but too tired to notice until the whiff hit my nostrils that it was JMs English

So cute story about this one—I was wearing it when I checked into a hotel in Philly recently, and the front desk staff asked me what I was wearing. I told her, and then I showed her the bottle. She

I’m in fresh fruity floral girl heaven with this one. The pear is sweet and juicy, the photorealistic sweet pea flowers are in full bloom in the summer sunshine. The musk adds a softness and

No wonder it’s popular, it’s fresh and sparkly! I’m just at the airport waiting to go home and figured I’d get a light sniff test in.

First time trying this! Surprised by how light the pear note is.
