What do reviewers say about Rose & Magnolia and Black Opium?
Jo Malone London delivers a classically British floral here, balanced by black pepper spice and grounded by patchouli in the base. The rose is present but never loud, and the moss adds unexpected.Rose & Magnolia
If you want a safe scent, look elsewhere. Black Opium announces itself with bold Orange Blossom, cools into Coffee and Jasmine intimacy, and stays close with Vanilla and Patchouli.Black Opium
