History
With Blackberry & Bay, Jo Malone delivers a scent that is redolent of childhood walks in the woods looking for wild blackberries. The perfumer confides that he was inspired by hikes and strolls through the countryside on warm and sunny days in fall. True to their philosophy of fragrance combining, the house suggests layering Blackberry & Bay with Nectarine Blossom & Honey to soften the green, grassy accent. For more info: www.jomalone.com

This smells of bay leaf more than anything else. It would smell better on a man, so I don't consider this a "unisex" fragrance. I would love a candle or room fragrance in this scent for the holidays. It is a great candle & holiday scent.

It's the perfect fall scent; makes me feel like I'm outdoors, soaking in the last bits of sun. Despite the berry, it's not too sweet. Quite sophisticated.
