Peony & Blush Suede by Jo Malone London is a Floral fragrance for women.
Peony & Blush Suede was launched in 2013. The nose behind this fragrance is Christine Nagel. Top note is Red Apple; middle notes are Peony, Rose, Jasmine and Carnation; base note is Suede.
Peonies have long been a favorite at weddings and to celebrate this delicate flower, British brand Jo Malone is launching a range of products incorporating their newly created Peony & Blush Suede scent in September 2013.
Because peonies only bloom once a year and over a short period of time, master perfumer and ‘nose’ Christine Nagel had to wait two harvests before she could perfect the Peony & Blush Suede fragrance.
If you love your scents multi-layered, pair this with English Pear & Freesia for a juicy sweetness reminiscent of mellow fruit. Or, if you prefer things more floral and flirty, Orange Blossom makes for a great partner as well.
