Jo Malone London Grapefruit

The brightener for heavy days.

Adds an uplifting citrus accessory to anything richer — works whenever a scent feels too heavy for the weather.

Layering Tip

Spray the heavier scent first, then the lighter one on top. Start with two scents — more than three quickly becomes muddled. Always test on skin first.
