Let’s talk about a fragrance that feels like luxury wrapped in a warm, glowing hug. Jo Malone Myrrh & Tonka is one of those scents that instantly transports you to a place of comfort and sophistication. It’s rich, sensual, and oh-so-inviting—perfect for anyone who loves a fragrance that lingers like a beautiful memory.
If you’re curious about this enchanting blend, let’s dive into the magic behind Myrrh & Tonka.
The Allure of Myrrh & Tonka
This scent is the perfect marriage of two gorgeous ingredients: myrrh and tonka bean. On one hand, you have myrrh—a warm, resinous note with ancient roots that’s deeply aromatic and grounding. On the other, there’s tonka bean, with its soft, almond-like sweetness that adds a touch of indulgence. Together, they create a fragrance that’s as comforting as it is luxurious.
The Notes: A Fragrant Symphony
Every Jo Malone scent is crafted like a story, and Myrrh & Tonka tells a tale of richness, warmth, and sophistication. Here’s what you can expect:
Top Notes: Lavender The scent opens with a soft whisper of lavender. It’s calming and slightly herbal, creating a fresh yet subtle introduction to the richness that follows.
Heart Notes: Myrrh At the heart of this fragrance is myrrh, a resin that’s warm, smoky, and just a little spicy. It’s earthy yet refined, grounding the scent with its deep and mysterious character.
Base Notes: Tonka BeanThe grand finale is tonka bean, which adds a sweet, creamy richness. With hints of vanilla and almond, it gives the fragrance its addictive, velvety smoothness that lingers beautifully on the skin.

How It Feels to Wear It
Wearing Myrrh & Tonka is like slipping into your coziest cashmere sweater, but with a touch of glamour. It’s warm and enveloping, making it perfect for cooler weather or evenings when you want to feel elegant yet approachable.
This is the kind of scent that draws people in—it’s intimate without being overpowering, lingering just enough to leave a lasting impression. Whether you’re heading to a romantic dinner or curling up with a good book by the fire, Myrrh & Tonka is the perfect companion.
Why We Love It
Myrrh & Tonka isn’t just a fragrance—it’s an experience. It captures the balance between richness and softness, making it universally appealing yet distinctively unique. What’s more, it’s unisex, so it can be enjoyed by anyone who loves a touch of warmth and sweetness in their scent.
And like all Jo Malone creations, it’s beautifully layerable. Pair it with something woody for extra depth or a fresh floral scent to brighten it up—though it’s just as stunning on its own.
