Island Delight

It’s that time of year when many of us daydream about escaping the everyday and jetting off to exotic climes. If the airfare is out of reach, you can fuel the fantasy with the latest addition to Jo Malone’s London Cologne Intense Collection (which feature treasured ingredients gathered from around the globe to create opulent scents). Just launched, the delectable Vetiver and Golden Vanilla Cologne Intense combines Madagascar’s two prized ingredients, entwined along the island’s vanilla-swept coastline.

Described as ‘glowing and bountiful’ in character, it’s deliciously sensual, combining notes of aromatic cardamom, fresh grapefruit tea, earthy native vetiver, and warming vanilla bourbon. Treat yourself to a bottle to spritz yourself with – and start saving for that air ticket!
