Basil Neroli

Launched in 1999, Lime Basil & Mandarin is Jo Malone London's signature citrus aromatic, built on a bright top of lime, mandarin orange, and bergamot. The heart shifts into green and herbal territory with basil, thyme, lilac, and iris, while the base rests on vetiver and patchouli. This structure gives the cologne a crisp, garden-fresh character that feels both refined and approachable.

Collectors of unisex citrus scents will appreciate its balance: the lime and mandarin are vivid but not sharp, and the basil-thyme accord adds a savory edge that keeps it from smelling like a simple eau de cologne. It suits those who want a clean, everyday fragrance for warm weather, office wear, or casual outings. Because it is a cologne concentration, expect moderate longevity and a close-to-moderate sillage; reapplying is common. The 1999 original remains a benchmark for modern aromatic citruses.

1999年推出嘅青檸羅勒與柑橘，係Jo Malone London嘅經典柑橘香。前調以青檸、柑橘同佛手柑開場，清新明亮；中調加入羅勒、百里香、丁香同鳶尾，帶出綠意同草本氣息；基調以岩蘭草同廣藿香收尾，沉穩得嚟唔厚重。整體散發花園般嘅潔淨感，中性得嚟又夠精緻。適合鍾意清爽柑橘調嘅收藏家，尤其喺春夏、辦公室或日常外出使用。由於係古龍水濃度，持香時間中等，需要適時補噴。
