113. Amber & Lavender Cologne

I've been wearing Jo Malone's Amber & Lavender for years now. I don't wear anything else, bar the odd squirt of Coco if I'm feeling really posh. A big bottle lasts me over a year, and there's something about the simple glass bottle and its metal top that is both pared down and pleasingly luxurious. The scent itself is beyond my powers of description but I have yet to tire of it.

There is a pleasure in having a sort of 'signature' scent. There is something old-fashioned about it that I like. I just hope they keep making it...

  1. it's all good. but i'm thinking now it would be more cost effective to wear Charlie as a signature scent rather than summink posh-like. it is too bloody pricey at £70 a bottle (well mine is and i bet yours is around that). maybe we can make somthing foraged from rosehips and elderberries? and gin.
