Celebs, Editors and Influencers All Love Jo Malone Perfumes—17 of Our Favourites

As far as British perfumeries go, none is more iconic than Jo Malone London. From its elegant glass bottles and gorgeous cream-and-black packaging to its ever-expanding fragrance library, Jo Malone perfumes have become synonymous with our special occasions—cherished moments we can return to with just a single spritz. This potent blend of luxury and sentimentality is the reason Jo Malone has found its way into the hearts of people all around the world, including celebrities, beauty editors, and even royalty. 

"Our scents are elegantly simple with an unexpected twist, pure and beautiful ingredients that are allowed to shine put together with something that shouldn't work but does," says Emma South, Jo Malone London's fragrance and lifestyle expert. "I love this slight irreverence in our creations. It all started with the basil in Lime Basil Mandarin; basil as an ingredient was extremely unusual at the time, one that was normally associated with cooking, and a real surprise in a scent. Today, we continue to try to push the boundaries with our ingredients."

But which Jo Malone scents are the most popular? With more to choose from than ever before, we set about discovering the go-to perfumes of the stars, as well as which scents Jo Malone's devoted clientele (that's you) always come back to.

"Jo Malone London's Lime Basil Mandarin is one of my favourite perfumes," Huntington-Whiteley reveals by way of video on her website, Rose Inc. "This is the fragrance my mother and grandmother always wore, and I find myself picking this up whenever I'm in need of a bit of comfort or whenever I want to feel my mother and grandmother close. My mother lives in the UK, and I'm based in L.A., so whenever I find myself feeling homesick, this is what I pick up. It really has a kind of elegant, fresh, modern scent to it—all the things I'd describe my mum and grandmother as. This is the perfume that evokes some of the most special memories to me."
