Bergamot and jasmine open together, the bergamot bright and clean, the jasmine kept tea-like rather than indolic, evoking the namesake brewed leaves with a faint floral lift.

By the editors · 2 min readBergamot and jasmine open together, the bergamot bright and clean, the jasmine kept tea-like rather than indolic, evoking the namesake brewed leaves with a faint floral lift. Apple weaves through with a crisp, slightly tart freshness.
The heart is short-lived in the typical Jo Malone manner, transitioning quickly to a base of vanilla, cedar, and musk. The vanilla stays restrained and slightly powdery, the cedar adding a clean pencil-shaving dryness, and the musk softening everything into skin warmth.
The overall character is gentle, a little nostalgic, and unmistakably teatime, with the cucumber from the name registering as a quiet green coolness rather than a pronounced note. It suits spring and summer daytime wear, layering, and anyone drawn to understated compositions.
