Assam & Grapefruit Jo Malone, created in 2011, is marketed as a unisex fragrance, drawing from the citrus and aromatic families. It was created by perfumer Christine Nagel. The fragrance belongs to the green and citrus groups. Part of the Tea collection, available as eau de cologne.
The sillage is delicate — an intimate cloud that stays close to the skin. Apply 4 and more sprays whether on skin or fabric — it works equally well either way. Every application feels like a little ritual — longevity is low. Made in the United Kingdom, backed by a long and proud tradition. Also available in other concentrations: jo malone huntsman assam & grapefruit. A rich, layered composition that reveals itself differently depending on your mood and the time of day.
The fragrance has low persistence and lasts on the skin for about 2–3 hours, gradually fading and smoothly revealing its main notes
A subtle trail—just a hint of fragrance
The perfume has a rich aroma that will help you stand out from the crowd and create a memorable image
A fresh and light fragrance with a concentration of fragrant substances up to 5% according to French standards, giving a feeling of purity and coolness
Perfumes for the fall and winter seasons often contain notes of vanilla, spices, ambergris, wood, and other warm accords, creating a feeling of comfort and warmth during the cold months
The composition of Assam & Grapefruit unfolds as a layered story, where layers reveal themselves smoothly and sequentially. The signature of Jo Malone comes through from the opening to the final trail. No excess details, only what works, and the structure feels complete all the way through. Eau de Cologne keeps a balanced rhythm of unfolding.
The internal accord map is shaped by these accords: Citrus, Gourmet, Floral and Musc forming a compact and readable structure. Additional accords such as Wood and Spicy add depth to the backdrop. The stylistic positioning is unisex, which clarifies the composition character. For persistence Low indicates a stable lasting impression. In trail behavior Weak describes the way the scent radiates.
In the top tier you detect sparkling citrus opening notes: Grapefruit and Violet.
At the core of development you detect Cardamom, Rose and Tea keeping a warm-spicy direction.
From the group perspective the structure relies on Citrus, Green, Floral and Spicy. It also reaches into Gourmet, Wood, Musk and Aromatic.
Taken together Assam & Grapefruit holds a coherent structure — the first stage creates momentum, the central phase adds depth, and the final phase leaves a stable imprint. These are the fragrances best experienced on skin.
