Jo Malone Mimosa & Cardamom Unisex Review - The Smooth and Spicy Blend of Freshness and Comfort
Jo Malone is a luxury British brand that specializes in scented candles, soaps, perfumes, etc. They have recently launched their own line of colognes; one of them being Mimosa and Cardamom. This unisex cologne is meant to smell like a fresh mimosa cocktail with hints of cardamom spice. In short, it smells amazing. It is smooth and spicy at the same time—very refreshing.
What Does Jo Malone Mimosa & Cardamom Smell Like
When you first spray the cologne you immediately notice the top note is Cardamom; middle note is Mimosa; base note is Tonka Bean. All these ingredients are extremely popular and unique. Let me explain why. First, let's take a look at the top note: Cardamom.
This ingredient is used in various types of food from coffee to desserts. Its aroma is very warm and spicy. Some people even say it has an exotic smell to it. It gives off a sweet and sour scent that reminds me of Christmas spices like cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, or cloves. When it comes to the middle note—Mimosa—it is commonly known as a type of champagne wine.
This beverage is famous because it is served in many different social settings including weddings, birthdays, holidays, etc. However, it is not only served; it is also used as a drink. As for the last note—Tonka Bean—this is another interesting ingredient. It has a distinct woody-smelling aroma to it. This is common in incense sticks and candles.
Projection
When it comes to projection, this product performs really well too. It has a moderate to strong projection that ranges anywhere between 4 and 6 inches. The fragrance lasts for about 5 hours after application before it starts losing some of its strength. However, if you use a lighter hand with the sprayer, you could probably extend the longevity of this fragrance up to 8 hours.
Also, just like all Jo Malone products, the packaging is exquisite. It looks classy; however, it doesn't scream luxury which makes it more approachable for most people. The bottles come in sleek black glass containers with beautiful frosted designs on them—very minimalistic yet elegant.
When To Wear Jo Malone Mimosa & Cardamom
If you are looking for something to wear out at night or to an event where alcohol is expected, then this cologne is perfect for you. This is a great pick if you are going to a party and don't know what to wear. You can simply spritz a few times on your neck and wrists to get started without having to worry about wearing too much perfume.
This is a subtle scent that won't overpower anyone else's cologne or perfume. You can keep it in your pocket if you need to avoid getting sprayed by someone else or if you are planning to meet friends for dinner beforehand. Another great thing about this fragrance is that it is versatile;
