Lovely. It starts off with a blast of greenish and unripe hazelnuts with a fine touch of lemon. The hazelnut though becomes riper with each minute and Oak joins the party during the process. If i had to explain the process through colors, i would say it develops from yellowish green to light brown. One of my favorites and a heck of a versatile fragrance as its almost a 4 season juice. Signature worthy.

Nice greenish woody scent that doesn’t smell “chemical” or loaded with IsoESuper to my nose (although I suspect it is in there). Also smells slightly herbacious to me, with a very clean & “crisp” edge to it. Reminds me a little bit of Sisley Eau de Campagne & anyone who likes that perfume would (I think) enjoy this. I’m wearing it now on a mild very windy Autumn evening, reminds of bracing walks in the English countryside! Yeah, I like it 🙂
I don’t understand why anything that doesn’t have notes of some form or other of sugar laden junk food gets tagged as “masculine”. It’s just another type of smell….and anyway, there’s far too much sugar in the world already (imho) lol

This Jo Malone EOH is definately not for the women who like girlish, sweet, flowery, heavy scents. I find it a bit masculine but I love the masculine fragrances!!! My husband says I become a powerful and mature woman when I am wearing it and trust me, it doesn’t hurt at all 🙂
zeroo – :
Hazelnut, wood and oak. Obviously masculine from the first impression.
The scent is woody good, nutty and oaky.
When you get a whiff, as I have, it goes to the MAN. I dont see woman wearing this unless she just like straight woody scents.
On another note, if your like Hazelnut, try Bottega Veneta, Parco # XI Castagno, much more awesome.

For me is in my top 5 the best from my collection, I don´t think that it is masculine, is very unissex, and can be perfect for women and men with no problem, in my skin is not masculine, I´ve receved a lot of compliments wearing English Oak & Hazelnut, for me everthing is perfect in it, Hazelnut, Oak, there are some sweet, but not to much, I bougth more one for my backup, I can´t live without this !! OMG !!!

This is Awesome for a man, Masculine, being that I’m a Man. This Oud Bergamot, Wood Sage and Sea Salt are the most masculine.

I was hesitating buying ENGLISH OAK&HEZELNUT or ENGLISH OAK&REDCURRENT. Normally im the fruity floral person but the salesperson suggested me to get ENGLISH OAK&HAZELNUT as a complement layering to the others fruity floral perfumes in my collections. For me, this is a magic. After a bath using the bodyshop peach smell soap i got 2 sprays of EOH and Bammm the magic happened. One day i use MON GUERLAIN and feel it is too sweet. I decide to layer EOH 2 sprays over MON GUERLAIN and bamm come the magic. EOH bring me refreshing, soothing, comforting. These open my world of woody. It turned from a like to a greatest love.

English oak and hazelnut-and the same goes for almost every fragrance from this “brand”-should belong to supermarket shelves and not in a perfumery shop.
So, in this case, “cheap” is the word to describe a fragrance which starts with a not too bad hint of hazelnut in a cedar ocean becoming very quickly exactly like one of the thousands perfumed deodorants coming in badly printed aluminium bottles with plastic caps that one finds at the supermarket.
Comparing this to Terre d’Hermés-which is one of the worst Hermès offerings so far- clearly shows how mainstream and synthetic the fragrance is.

I just started collecting Jo Malone recently. I decided to give this a whirl being unisex. Definitely very masculine. I gave it to my husband. I’ve got to say it’s the best cologne he has now in his collection I love it on him. Very well constructed, smooth and sexy. Catnip for ladies for sure it’s amazing. Not for a girl though IMHO.
mitek98rus – :
Uncomplicated and easy, this is a simple, natural wood, spice and earth scent with only a few ingredients. It stays linear, then fades in a couple of hours which is actually good for a Jo Malone. Perfectly unisex.
pd9999i – :
EO&H is a transparent woody fragrance that opens with a bright, green, citrusy-spicy accord and mellows into a sweet-citric aromatic scent that reminds me of lemony-peppery pencil shavings. It’s a lovely fragrance that evokes memories of opening old wooden desks stuffed with scented stationery and spices or those scented pencil erasers of my childhood.
The overall scent is fresh and bright but not soapy, with a hint of something roasted (but not smoky) in the background. It is quite linear once the top notes disappear. I think it’s more suitable for cooler weather, although wearing it in warm Manila weather might make you stand out in a good way because it smells unique in a sea of citrus-freshies.
The drydown has the Jo Malone DNA — easy-to-like, confident, simple, even if bordering on chemical. It leans a bit masculine but the herbal quality keeps it gender-neutral. Longevity is OK, but it can be helped a bit by spraying it on fabric. Overall, one of Jo Malone’s more unique offerings. Try it!

The first thing that came to my mind was – weed – as in natural, organic, grassy, mossy, the real thing: marihuana before you roll it. I can’t wait to own this one soon. It is grassy but masculine and refreshing, probably and one I could use for ‘everyday’ wear. I like it so far.
st47k3r – :
English Oak & Hazelnut by Jo Malone London is a Woody Spicy fragrance for women and men! It’s unique, spicy.
chess35 – :
When I first got JM English Oak & Hazelnut, it reminded me of Terre d’Hermes, but after about 8 months it seems much sweeter and prettier. Maybe it needed to age more before being sold. I also get hints of candy and chocolate in it now that may account for its sweetness. I originally judged it as too masculine, but am very comfortable with what it has turned into.
faderoskopi – :
The name is misleading. I sort of expected it to be woody and nutty hence the name, but it wasn’t! It opens pretty vegetal & green, like green vegetables, perhaps with a little bit of the tiny roots. But as it’s drying down, the more i do get that cologn-like vibe. I’m not sure what cologne it is but it smell pretty familiar to me, perhaps like a drugstore brand baby cologne or something.
damir007danirrr – :
Tire swing. Spanish moss. Squirrels. Raccoons. That’s all this big ol’ oak is missing. Like the real deal, this is mighty and lasts. A perfect representation. Well done.
ILDAR58 – :
This smells great but it smells nothing like I expected it to. Like others have mentioned it has this Terre d’Hermes feel to it. I also get strong similarities to Molecule 03 by Escentric Molecules. It’s fairly linear and not at all as nutty as I’d hoped. Try before you buy, but I’m pretty sure that you won’t be disappointed.
kusamlr7 – :
If Lululemon made a men’s cologne, this is what it would smell like; in other words, this is likely catnip for modern yuppie women. You’ll understand what I mean if you ever get the chance to smell it. It’s like Santal 33 or Terre d’Hermes with all the even slightly challenging notes completely removed from it. It’s stripped down, modern and brilliant
lebedevsg1 – :
Smells like a more British version of an Hermes fragrance
yarik-86 – :
I received a sample of this and ended up buying a small bottle of it. I guess I tend to be drawn to masculine scents, and this is fairly masculine to my nose. I do like earthy, woody natural fragrances. I tried the English Oak and Redcurrant, but it was a bit too sweet and floral for me, but my friend loved it and bought it.
Rusell83 – :
Sampled it for 2 days and then bought a 100ml bottle. I like simplistic fragrances that last all day and have average arms lengths projection and this is perfect.
Great for cool weather. Smells smooth, natural, earthy and woody. It is not “perfumey” at all. Smells like you have been outdoors in the woods. Listed as unisex but it is very masculine. I get a little Creed Spice & Wood minus the apple mixed with Molecule 01.
23Igor95 – :
Very simple, just the three notes and it smells unbelievable. Sometimes less is more and that is certainly true when it comes to this scent! It reminds me of my childhood as I spent a lot of time in the English countryside and definitely gives me an English stately home vibe. Very earthy and comforting, if you want to feel like you’re walking through a forest during autumn or winter then this one is for you.
syama – :
This just floats off my skin in the nicest way possible. It’s natural, organic, hot, textural but light and grassy. I love this fragrance when I travel. I sprayed some recently before flying and it tucked me away into my own cocoon of comfort.
It’s in no way cloying, or heavy. It’s sexy without trying too hard because there’s no sweetness there.
This is special.
kodial – :
This is an instant classic. It smells classic and very modern at the same time. Anyone, of any age, could wear this. I’m not sure that any can say they don’t like the scent. It may not be wearable for some people but the scent is fantastic. It has fairly good longevity, but sillage is pretty light. But when you do walk by someone and they get a whiff or hug someone they definitely take notice. Also, the marketing was spot on for this. The pictures for the ads described the scent for me. Well done!
Foma_ – :
Unfolds brilliantly then descends into a fiery Iso E Super abyss. Lasts long enough to forget the opening. For those seeking classy mediocrity.
milk40 – :
Oh this is good..Very natural, nothing synthetic. Some might say this is a little masculine or unisex, at the very least there is a definite outdoorsy deliciousness to this. Not overly woody like many unisex or masculine scents, but I would say more of a general outdoorsy scent. At times this is a wee bit clean smelling to me. I guess the best description I could give would be maybe laundry hanging on a beautiful airy day surrounded by big beautiful aging trees. This at first has the notion to me of “ohh, this is nice..” but then as the day wears on, this scent becomes slightly intoxicating, in a soft lovely way. Not a sensual way nor boozy way, but just a “give me more!!” type of scent that you just want to smell…more…
Not heavy or anything, quite light, actually. Very nicely done. Clean, classy, outdoorsy. Soft and a little intoxicating. Like the air-dried linens that you might get someday (or had) the good fortune to sleep in..you just want to snuggle up and smell the deliciousness, freshness and cleanliness.
The only downfall for me is this does not have very good sillage or longevity. Within an hour, this is a skin scent for me. Still, sometimes skin scents are lovely. But I do sort of wish the longevity here was a little better. But, still a l❤️ve for me..
adannjkees – :
This is a scent that I’d buy as a forever perfume in my collection, if it would last for hours on end. I love this. It’s an incredible scent. It’s SO grown up and mature, but has the flesh of an infant. This is remarkable to me.
vkq857speagoessenda – :
In the opening, smell really nice, sweet yummy delicious hazelnut but sadly why so easy to fade on my skin. I only get hazelnut vibe for 20 minutes then oak and cedar took over the juice to dry down, meaning hazelnut is very very minimal in this perfume. My conclusion is, this perfume is more focusing on dry down than opening.
Whiskey by Commodity is far better in term of sillage and longevity and worthy buy, credit for Commodity house. JM Malone is expensive but lack of longevity and sillage (according to Oak Hazelnut)
Basik – :
This is becoming a favorite of mine. It’s light, very light, but it lasts a good amount of time. This is my first Jo Malone and it makes me want to explore this house even more. It is fresh, but has a good depth that makes it work for Fall, but it is probably too light for Winter. I particuarly like it on warm Fall days.
When I spray this one on my wife always says, “I love that one!” And she rarely comments on my fragrances.
This is a good one, check it out if you get a chance.
Gusarwofhv – :
It’s a woody, classy, fresh, and sweet. Very high quality ingredients. I love it I enjoy wearing it. Totally unisex.
Azik84 – :
English Oak and Hazelnut is a light, clean version of fresh cut wood, with an occasional whiff of spices of the winter holidays. Very simple. Skews masculine in my opinion. Reminds me of Terre d’ Hermes.
icersape64 – :
Very, very green hazelnuts. Aggressively green in fact. It’s way too sharp and screechy for something that sounds like it should fit the season of mists and mellow fruitfulness. I don’t feel the wood base smells like oak at all.
It’s very masculine IMHO.
Longevity is better than a lot of Jo Malone offerings.
Denka301 – :
A new fragrance from the brand that makes me weak right down to the knees is English Oak and Hazelnut . Alongside English Oak and Redcurrant these two new scents are going to be a part of the regular line and while that’s good news there’s two existing scents that will be discontinued. I’ve read online that Jo Malone commissioned this Roasted Oak Absolute which is exclusive for the brand for 5 years, a single note used for the first time in perfumery.
An opening of crunchy nutty fresh Green Hazelnut, with a burst of Grapefruit delivering that zesty bitterness and Elemi (sourced somewhere in Southeast Asia) embracing that peppery and bright quality of the other top notes. The heart elegantly combines the woody and dry character of Cedarwood, a little green herbaceous Geranium and earthy, grassy Vetiver rounded up with a warm base of Roasted Oak layered with amber and the verdancy of Moss that completes that earthy, forest woodiness.
This scents screams pure enchantments wrapped in woody tenderness; crisp with a wisp of smoky and deep air reminiscent of walking along mossy woods conjuring memories of a deep and profound love for the wilderness and beyond.
The scent only comes in 3.4 oz and 1 oz cologne bottles; no bath and body or candle versions which was probably the saddest news I’ve heard after the discontinuation of Nutmeg & Ginger & White Jasmine & Mint.
This layers beautifully with Blackberry and Bay adding that vibrant fruity tart freshness and my favorite combination so far, with Wild Bluebell for that dewy infectious luminosity.

Yeah!! Thats right, it smells something familliar to me… its a spicy version of CREED AVENTUS!! OMG!
The English Oak and Hazelnut is a must. Now available in the Philippines
vertifighter – :
Vetiver + ISO e super. For lovers of Terre d’Hermes and other vetiver fragrances of that type.
ZARAZA2009 – :
Sexy, classic yet modern. Love the green hazelnut that develops in the beginning and the vetiver is a nice accompaniment to the oak. This to me smells like a slightly sweeter variant of Chanel’s beloved Sycomore EDT and I for one am very happy with this addition to Jo Malone. Love.
smakievsky – :
Yes yes yes!! When I tried the T. Mugler that featured hazelnut, I was greatly let down. With this one, I get that nice subtle note of it that blends with my body chemistry quite well. Also, compared to English Oak& Red Currant, this one was not TOO outdoors woodsy.
My only complaint:
Jo Malone, for the price, does not last the test of time. Seriously gone-inski in 3 hours flat!
kuzmic – :
Not getting any hazelnut here, I’m afraid. Smells like it would fit in as one of Penhaligon’s men’s line: dandy barbershop. Disappointing. Smells like half an effort.
TVcorp72 – :
I received a tester of both English Oak & Hazelnut, English oak & Redcurrant! My JM counter in Oberhausen Germany just informed me that I was one of the lucky ones who will receive both fragrances in 30 ml as a special gift!
I have tested the English Oak & hazelnut last Saturday, and for me, it is very Jo malone. Since i have almost all of their actual fragrances, I would say that this one belongs to the woody spicy family, very similar to 154 and Ginger & nutmeg….not at all the same smell, but if you love woody and spicy fragrances then this is for you!
I love it anyways….
RAZUMo4ek – :
This sounds and looks very unique. I usually like Jo Malone perfumes and colognes. I will try this one when I can. I like the notes listed.
