Jo Malone Aftershave

Looking to buy Jo Malone Aftershave?

For a burst of bold, impressive scents that you wouldn't normally find in men's perfumes, look to our collection of Jo Malone aftershaves. With options for all sorts of occasions, this is one of the most adaptable fragrance brands out there.

Jo Malone aftershave: distinction in simplicity

It's often said that the best things in life are simple, and this seems to be something the Jo Malone aftershave team have taken to heart. Absent are the gimmicks, the strange statement ingredients. Gone too are the provocative names: You won't find titles like Guilty, Sauvage or Obsession. Instead, Jo Malone colognes show off their class with simple, descriptive names.

Take the wonderfully no-nonsense Myrrh and Tonka fragrance, developed by the French perfumer Mathilde Bijaoui. You don't need us to tell you that it's an amber fragrance, rich in spice - that's in the name! Instead of needless flash, Jo Malone put all of their efforts into sourcing quality ingredients that smell fantastic.

Let's return to Myrrh and Tonka. This cologne opens with a refreshing herbal note of lavender that would normally be found in a floral or fougère aftershave. Here though it acts as a sharp, woody contrast for the delicately sweet incense fragrances of myrrh in the heart. Upon dry down, subtle fragrances of tonka bean together with vanilla and a hint of almond are released. Compared to some mens perfumes, the notes are few, yet the results are incredible: addictive, rich, even sexy.

The same is true for English Oak and Red Currant, another popular Jo Malone aftershave. This cologne includes just three notes - red currant on top, rose in the middle and oak wood at the base - but the intriguing berry scent, one that approaches sweetness but is never cloying, together with aromatic, invigorating wood means this fragrance is far more than the sum of its parts.

Jo Malone for men: scents with unisex appeal

There's an added complexity to the Jo Malone for men line up that doesn't apply to many other well known brands. In short, nearly all of these fragrances are actually unisex. Jo Malone perfumers pride themselves on creating male aftershaves and women's perfumes that lean slightly to masculine and femme traditions without placing themselves firmly in either camp.

An excellent example is one of the most popular Jo Malone aftershaves: Pomegranate Noir. Notes of musk, Virginia cedar wood and resinous opoponax contribute to this fragrance's status as a men's perfume. But it's that strong opening of pomegranate, together with an accord of floral scents in the heart, that make this a fabulously versatile scent for both men and women.

The refreshing citrus and herbaceous aromas that define Lime Basil & Mandarin are likewise unisex. Opening with sparkling lime and orange accords, this cologne mellows into iris, thyme and lilac flowers, all while being grounded by peppery Basil.

Some Jo Malone fragrances are quite masculine, but even traditionally manly-man scents like their Bronze Wood & Leather can be worn by women. That's thanks to the sweet grapefruit and balsamic juniper notes that permeate through the aftershave. This slightly dark and seductive fragrance is an ideal companion for the long evenings of autumn and winter.

With such a wide variety of scents for every setting, mood and season, Jo Malone aftershaves are the perfect choice if you're a man who likes to show off his feminine side, a woman who likes to present herself with a masculine spin or anyone who wants to straddle the gender divide.
