Description

“English Fields Collection Q&A with Celine Roux, Head of Global Fragrance, Jo Malone London and Mathilde Bijaoui, Master Perfumer.

Celine: This was our chance to capture fields of young wheat: they represent a new beginning, the start of spring when everything is beginning to grow. The idea was to capture the fresh air breeze in the fields when the wheat is still green. At the same moment there is a botanical, slightly powdery contrast from the white meadowsweet blossoms.
Mathilde: I used some grapefruit to draw out the fresh youth of the wheat. I love the dryness that the vetiver brings too – it’s such an earthy note and for me it resonated with the concept of green wheat. It’s the freshest of the collection, and represents the cereals before they mature into grains.

An English field at dawn, full of the joys of spring. Filled with young, green wheat. Crisp and fresh. Balanced with a zesty twist of grapefruit. Mingled with soft, white notes of meadowsweet.” – a note from the brand.

Green Wheat & Meadowsweet was launched in 2018.

    Green Wheat and Meadowseet is true to its name, and to the “note from the brand”: wearing it, it’s very easy indeed to imagine myself among fields of young, green wheat or stalks of grass with some flowers strewn in.
    The opening especially is almost unsettlingly green, and very sweet in a botanical kind of way: I don’t get any grapefruit, just the same kind of startlingly wild, sweet green as in Zoologist’s Elephant (although it’s a little more “English” and subdued in this one). My favourite part comes when the scent settles down after an hour or so: it loses the wild aspect, and turns into a more comfortable, mellow version of itself. For the next couple of hours, I regularly get lovely whiffs of spring fields – very enjoyable! All in all this is a solid like for me, nothing more and nothing less. I don’t think I’ll ever need more of it than my little decant, but I’ll return to that with pleasure next spring.

    Jo Malone really means what they say when they slap a sticker on a bottle that says ‘limited edition’. Limited this English Fields collection most certainly is. I nearly blinked and missed it. Thankfully I purchased a bottle of Oat & Cornflour, (one of my favourites), before it disappeared off the shelves forever.
    Green Wheat & Meadowsweet is also very pretty. I don’t love this fragrance as much as Oat & Cornflour, but I wouldn’t be disappointed if a bottle happened to fall in my lap. This fragrance is one green citrus scent that I really enjoy smelling.
    The top notes are very crisp and green on my skin. I get a pleasant, summery burst of grapefruit and bergamot, almost as refreshing as a jug of chilled water with slices of lemon floating delicately on its surface. The heart is more mellow and soothing with notes of wheat and meadowsweet which captures the concept of an English field beautifully.
    Calming is the best word I could find to describe this entire line. Had they not been so expensive I would have happily purchased them all. The sales representative at the Jo Malone counter was also telling me that they are designed, (like the rest of the Jo Malone line), to be layered with one another. I tried Green Wheat & Meadowsweet with Oat & Cornflour and I must say that it did create a rather interesting, crisp blend.
    If you happen to love any fragrances from this English Fields line I would highly recommend purchasing them now before it’s too late. Jo Malone really outdid themselves this year with this stunning collection. The longevity and projection of Green Wheat & Meadowsweet also surpasses many fragrances in their permanent line-up. The price is also quite reasonable for what you get.

    So beautiful.
    It’s very confortable and cozy.
    Starts with a dry aura, and the wheat makes it so unique.
    Kind of a rich old brother of Jeaux de Peau.
    On my skin it lasts all day long.
    It would be wonderful to have this as a regular collection.

    Green, fresh and somewhat manly.
    It had some nice facets to it but generally not a very enjoyable scent.
    Overall I’m reminded of many other scents made for men, and sadly don’t get anything special from this one.

    i really enjoyed the initial scent of this- the green and wheat notes reminded of iced hojicha or barley tea. The smell it settled into was a little cloying masculine for me though (weirdly like a lot of scents in this collection?).

    Not as great a scent as the others in the English Fields Collection that I own. The opening spray smelling strongly of grapefruit and green notes and then the green and wheat notes coming together in the dry down with a sharp musk and almost spicy scent. Very masculine and reminds me of Old Spice but a weaker version of it. I still like it but is my least favourite of the collection.

    This was my (least favourite) even all of them are beautiful, this is very strong in the citrus more masculine and less feminine of all the range, completely unique nothing like this on the market.

    Very nice and a good mixture of the citrus vetiver of ‘normal’ fragrances, with hints of this creamy, grain theme of this limited edition line. The opening is sharp with grapefruit transitioning into not entirely green notes, but something a touch warmer. I felt this was the most unisex and borderline masculine of the bunch. Not bad but if I wanted a fresh green fragrance I’d buy a million others before this.

    This perfume starts out green and sweet. It dries down to warm grainy, a little smoky and nutty perhaps a little vanilla and just a hint of the first notes. The last smell on me after 5 hours or so is milky, nutty with a little grain. I love this perfume! I am always attracted to perfume with vetiver notes and this one has it So different from the sweeter things I usually wear. I see it as a unisex perfume without being too masculine. I want to buy another bottle before they are all gone!!

    I love this so much. I bought poppy & barley today but I am kind of changing my mind when I smell them again on testpaper as I bought it a bit rush in the afternoon and did not have enough time to let them settle. At first I did like poppy the most when I first smelled them because it is probably the most acceptable one (in other words the most mediocre one) due to its predominant greenery notes which make you think of poppies in fields dancing in breeze rather than wheat smell.
    Not everyone likes the smell of wheat and it takes time to adapt the odour. Once you get use to it you will love the aroma of wheat since it smells so fresh and clean and warm at the same time. It reminds me of the limited green almond perfume, which I love so much (though I did not buy it as it did not come in a smaller size and it is very unlikely for me to use them up even until the end of the world). But it is not as fresh and sharp as that one. This one, by adding the ingredient of wheat, creates a warm and a bit woody atmosphere that makes you relax and feel comfortable.

    This was the biggest surprise of the 5. At first I thought “ouch it is challenging!” But you just wait, wait for an hour and your heart will sing. This particular juice reminds me that patience is a virtue! The initial blast of loud green grapefruit/green moves aside and the juice becomes a complex mix of 20% fruit/10% flower/30% green/40% wood unisex heaven. It is so unique and not like anything else I have (I have a lot). More surprisingly is its lasting power. It literally lasts 6 hours at the same concentration (without fading) on me. Many of my EDPs do not last as strongly or long! The “strong” characteristic of this fragrance means you only need a spray or two and it will last a long time. I am glad I did not let my first impression to count it out!

    Smells somehow similar to the Green Almond & Redcurrant which I did not like. Just sharp and too “green” for me. Longevity is also poorer than the Green Almond. Not impressed at all.

    Its fresh opening made it my favorite among the five, for a few minutes. (Overall, I prefer Poppy Barley which has the lowest rating so far and Honey Crocus.) But it loses its freshness quickly. I get grass, smoky wheat, tea leaves, incense, woods. A sliver of lemon in drydown. Too masculine for me. Long lasting for a Jo Malone.

    This is fresh at first but leans a little masculine for me. It’s very green, a tiny bit nutty and then an hour later, it transforms into something that reminds me of wheat, earth and old spice. I bought this blind, so will have to do some fragrance combining with Basil and Neroli to get through the bottle. It’s not my favourite from this line. Primrose & Rye, however, is beautiful. I can see a guy really enjoying this one to be honest. It’s not a bad scent, it’s just not for me. The projection and lasting power is stronger compared to the softer Primrose & Rye and Honey & Crocus.
