Poppy & Barley

Parfumour’s Interpretation of Jo Malone Poppy & Barley

Poppy & Barley is a cosy fruity floral, and our version keeps that soft, radiant character, built around the same notes with real depth.

The Story Behind the Scent

Jo Malone built Poppy & Barley as a fruity floral, pairing a juicy blackcurrant opening with a soft poppy and rose heart over a warm barley musk base for a cosy, radiant character.

Our interpretation follows that character, keeping the balance of the original and building it at a high perfume oil concentration so it lasts on skin.

How Our Version Compares to the Original

The original is a luxury eau de parfum sold at high pricing. We build ours at a high perfume oil concentration and sell direct, so you get the same character for a fraction of the price.

Who It’s For

It suits anyone who loves a cosy fruity floral scent and wants a luxury style fragrance without the high price.
