Oat & Cornflower

To preface, I only own 2 9ml Jo Malone sprays (red roses and I can’t remember the other). My Fragrantica Fairy Godmother sent me a 1oz bottle of this in her last package a week or 2 ago. Looking at the name, I wasn’t sure what to expect (as I stated previously, I don’t have much experience with Jo Malone), but oh my, this is so nice! There’s something so comforting about this scent for me. I love wearing it to bed and I wear it to work a lot too and it’s a compliment grabber for sure. There’s just something about it that really helps my mood and even helps my insomnia, as insane as it sounds. I have severe anxiety and work in finance so I can get really *really* anxious at work and this scent hasn’t been a cure all, but it really helps ground me and closing my eyes while taking this in has actually helped soothe my anxiety. It’s insane. I sound insane but I really do love this one! It’s a shame it’s been discontinued, really. I feel like they rush so many perfumes in and out of production and it makes no sense! I’m lucky enough to have been gifted a bottle. Sillage is moderate, sometimes stronger. Longevity is pretty good as I can smell it on my pillow the next morning any time I wear it to bed. If you’re able to at least try this, I definitely recommend you do. These notes/accords would normally never grab my attention but this is quickly becoming a favorite of mine.

The best from the English Fields Collection in my opinion. And I am so glad I hunted it down. The scent lifts my spirits and wraps me with a cocoon of delicious feeling of home and comfort. Its such a unique scent from JML - and I have a collection of over 20 bottles. I get so many compliments and I still catch whiffs of the scent on me about 6 hours later & I live in a hot humid tropical island! I love this over crocus & honey. The cologne keeps fresh too - I think its the opaque bottle. So if you see this on sale, its a safe buy even though it has been discontinued and the batch number could be as early as Sep 2017. Love the bottle too! Nice to add to your JML collection if you are a collector. I hope JML will bring this back soon!

Fresh cornbread with creamy honey butter. The scent is so soothing. I went from like to love after I read the description, it is a work of perfume mastery, Celine and Mathilda really captured the essence of oats and cornflower without using any oat or cornflower. The smell itself is ok, not something I’d wear in public, more something I’d enjoy after a hot bath and now curled up in bed with a good book.

This is so beautiful!! Ahhhhh!!!warm, pretty and like bathing in some expensive bubble bath sweet and not over baring sweet and not synthetic in anyway! So natural and subtly nutty! and drys down to a beautiful warm skin scent. If i had a partner I'd wear this too bed!! smells so beautiful clean and unique!! you're partner would appreciate holding you and smelling this on you're skin! amazing!!! 10/10

It was a blind buy, but I’m not regretting buying it. Such a unique and pretty scent! It smells like hay with a lot of tender green freshness and very smooth, sweet and creamy base. The nutty note is present here, but it’s more like a green nuts (not roasted ones). It’s definitely a gourmand scent (I can detect coumarin in here), but it’s also surprisingly fresh.
