Jo Malone London is a firm favourite when it comes to luxury fragrance, but it’s not always the most affordable option. However, shoppers can now get two of the brand’s most iconic fragrances for less than £20
Sephora customers are rushing to purchase Jo Malone’s legendary fragrances for £18 when they buy a travel set. The Jo Malone London Lime Basil and Mandarin and Pomegranate Noir Travel Cologne Duo is priced at £36 and includes two of the brand’s most celebrated scents.
Lime, Basil and Mandarin delivers a zesty citrus experience, beginning with a vibrant blend of lime, mandarin orange and bergamot. The middle notes shift to a more herbal direction featuring basil, thyme, lilac and iris. The foundation combines vetiver and patchouli in an understated finish, reports the Manchester Evening News.
Pomegranate Noir presents itself as a unisex scent frequently characterised as elegant with fruity herbal accents. It bursts forth with vibrant red fruit notes including pomegranate, rhubarb, plum, raspberry and watermelon. This evolves into a rich floral and spiced centre featuring clove, pink peppercorn, guaiac wood, frankincense, opoponax (delivering sweet balsamic warmth), rose, jasmine and lily-of-the-valley. The foundation blends amber, musk, Virginia cedar and patchouli in perfect harmony.

Whilst the collection hasn’t attracted many reviews on Sephora, those received have been overwhelmingly positive. One customer commented: “Have always loved these perfumes but can’t afford a larger size. Having these two travel sized ones together was affordable. They are so heavenly to wear. I’m loving them and my partner loves smelling them on me.”
Another buyer noted: “Bought as a present! Service was great and the goods arrived safely on time.”
Pomegranate Noir has racked up 821 five-star reviews on Sephora, with one shopper saying: “This is such a lovely fragrance and I get so many compliments when I wear it. This is a must. You can not beat a classic!”

The set includes bestselling scents: Lime Basil & Mandarin and Pomegranate Noir.
Another raved: “Oozes elegance from the fragrance to the packaging. Lifts your mood and makes you feel special. The large bottle goes a long way as this fragrance does 9-5 as we go back to some sort of normal. The fragrance is not for the shy amongst us as this attracts compliments.”
However, on John Lewis’ website, one four-star review of the set reads: “These were perfect for holiday where I wanted to carry less. Nice to have two different fragrances. The only negative is that it wasn’t gift wrapped like it said, I originally bought it as a gift but kept it for myself as it was just loose in the box.”
The scent is also beloved in candle form, so it’s worth bearing in mind that some customers might find it reminds them of a home fragrance rather than a personal one.
If shoppers fancy something comparable in a bigger size, then 142 by The Essence Vault, which costs £26.95 for a 100ml bottle, is reportedly similar to Pomegranate Noir. For those who are prepared to splash out more, then Armani’s Passione Intense Eau De Parfum is on offer from The Fragrance Shop for £102.
Fragrance fans can now snap up the Jo Malone London Travel Cologne Duo, boasting both Lime Basil and Mandarin and Pomegranate Noir Cologne, from Sephora for £36.
