Jo Malone London Shower Oils

Still looking for a pressie for that hard-to-shop-for, scent-loving friend? Get thee to a Jo Malone London store ASAP, to scoop up one of these. The Jo Malone London Shower Oils have been around for a while and are favourites of ours: they cleanse, but leave skin silky and veiled in fragrance, at the same time. (They’re just about the most extravagant way to shave your legs on the planet, BTW. But that’s the kind of chicks we are.)

Three new fragrances joined the line-up this year: the airily floral-fruity Nectarine Blossom & Honey, Tuberose Angelica – a green ‘take’ on tuberose (if you know a tuberose fan, she’ll adore this), and Velvet Rose & Oud, which happens to be Jo’s favourite JML fragrance of all: as velvety as the name suggests, warmed by clove and sweetened by flourishes of praline.

Even if you don’t layer a product over the top, these deliver delicious little wafts of scent, day-long.

Sorry: even if THEY don’t layer a product over the top, these deliver delicious little wafts of scent, day-long. Because you are going to give this away, once you’ve bought it – aren’t you…????
