Black Cedarwood & Juniper

Black Cedarwood & Juniper, a Smoky Woods

Black Cedarwood & Juniper was the darker, moodier side of Jo Malone. Our version keeps that atmosphere, opening with crisp juniper and a warm hit of spice before settling into a smoky, resinous cedarwood base.

The Story Behind the Scent

Jo Malone created Black Cedarwood & Juniper as part of a rain themed collection, evoking a midnight downpour over a city. It traded the brand’s usual bright freshness for something darker and more mysterious, all damp woods and warm spice.

That shift is exactly why it built such a loyal following. It feels sophisticated and a little brooding, equally good on a man or a woman. Since it became hard to find, fans have hunted for the original. Our interpretation keeps that smoky, woody mood available.
