Jo Malone Blackberry & Bay EDC Spray 3.4 Oz

I layer fragrance and coordinating cream. I will continue to purchase products over and over bc I love love love but very disappointed bc wears off so quickly. My daughter had same issue with another JoMalone scent we purchased for her last year.

I tried the tester and absolutely loved it. It lasted all day. The staying power and the initial scent seems to be different in the bottle. Unfortunately I won't buy this particular scent again. I don't know why there's a different between the tester and bottle. The other issue is the spray nozzle is faulty. I have tried using the online form over a few days but each time the submit button is absent. I have tried calling customer service but the answering machine directs me to the online form. I must say that I'm disappointed that customer service is lacking and the online form is not working. I do like Jo Malone perfumes but perhaps I need to but from an in person retailer rather than online to get customer service.

I'm so in love with my Blackberry & Bay ever since I stumbled across the scent whilst visiting a Jo Malone counter. Supposed to be fruity but it doesn't smell sweet and in fact it's a very sophisticated scent and hard to describe... I'm always receive amazing compliments from people and they wanting to know the brand and name! I've wear it out day or night and it's my go to perfume when I'm down in the dumps! I love to layer it with other JM scents sometimes for an evening out but usually I prefer the scent as it is.

I love this cologne with its many layers and fragrance notes. For those anticipating a sweetness due to the blackberries, it really doesn't smell sweet and it's not overpowering. I find it's a fresh, interesting and rather sophisticated perfume and as its fragrance changes through so many levels before it finally dries down, I love to smell it on my wrist to see what stage it's at. For me Blackberry and Bay is an all year round cologne, whereas English Pear and Freesia is an Autumn/Winter favourite and Lime, Basil and Mandarin a Spring/Summer must-have. Blackberry and Bay can take me through from one years end to the next and feels good for day wear and rather elegant for an evening out.

I'm a fruity scent person. I admit it! Florals tend to change on me, hence, I rely on fruits. This scent is best described as bright and uplifting. It can be very hard to describe scents, but I do wear this one by itself and as it wears down, the BlackBerry is what remains. So, I like the initial sent, as well as the final burn down. The bay leaf gives it a depth that is indescribable, but I do not smell Bayleaf, per se. It does, however, work well in providing a backdrop to the BlackBerry.
