Honey & Crocus

Honey & Crocus by Jo Malone London is a fragrance for women and men. Honey & Crocus was launched in 2018. The nose behind this fragrance is Mathilde Bijaoui. "English Fields Collection Q&A with Celine Roux, Head of Global Fragrance, Jo Malone London and Mathilde Bijaoui , Master Perfumer. Celine : One of the visions we had for English Fields was bees flying over the meadows pollinating all these wild flowers, so we wanted an element of nectar and honey in one of the fragrances. Crocus is such a quintessential springtime flower and Mathilde was able to combine these two ingredients perfectly. The scent captures the contrast of colours: the golds and purples and green stalks, with a dash of almond milk to emulate the dew that comes out of cut crocus stalks. Mathilde : The honey note had to be just right for this. There are some honeys that are too sticky and too waxy, but for this fragrance I chose one that was closer to the smell of fresh hay. It’s soft and warm and quite regressive; similar to British lavender honey. I highlighted its freshness with a lavender extract. In the middle of working on this collection Celine suggested adding almond milk. It brought a new texture, almost like a condensed creamy syrup that balanced out the floral tones. Mouth-watering honey, fresh from the beehive. Blended with the bright bloom of crocuses and English lavender. Sweetened with a dash of almond milk." - a note from the brand.
