Jo Malone London has always known how to dress for the season, but this year the brand leans into its playful side. The Fun & Games Christmas Collection is bold, joyful and a little unexpected. Here are the standouts that made us swoon.
A Wonderland Detour Exclusive to Selfridges: If your eyes light up at the sight of a checkerboard floor or a talking white rabbit, Jo Malone London has teamed up with Disney for two Selfridges-only treats inspired by Alice in Wonderland. Midnight Musk & Amber, dressed up in a blue lid that echoes Alice’s famous frock is a warm, smoky scent. There’s also a set pairing the same scent with a Pomegranate Noir candle, plus a sheet of Alice-themed stickers top decorate your own gift box. Everything comes packaged in whimsical checkerboard boxes that nod to the classic animated film.
Scent of the Season: Every Christmas needs a newcomer, and this year it’s Sandalwood & Spiced Apricot. Think cosy evening glow rather than sugar-rush sweetness. There’s warm sandalwood, creamy vanilla and a hint of cardamom and apricot.
Jo Malone London Advent Calendar: The classic drawer design is still there, but now it’s split into colourful segments that feel a bit like a sophisticated board game. Behind each drawer? A daily reveal of miniature colognes, bath and body favourites, plus a travel candle and a 30ml festive scent.
Old Favourites Return: Ginger Biscuit is back, packed with warm spices, soft caramel and vanilla. Midnight Musk & Amber reappears too, along with Orange Bitters, which feels like sipping a winter cocktail by the fire.
Candle Season is Officially Here: Bitter Orange & Chocolate is pure indulgence – rich, decadent and a bit cheeky. Pine & Eucalyptus brings the outdoors in with a brisk, crisp freshness. And Orange Bitters is perfect for anyone who likes their home to smell like holiday spirit distilled.
Shop Jo Malone London’s complete Fun & Games Christmas Collection range at the Beauty Hall on 3 at Selfridges Birmingham.
