Jo Malone London Verona

The power of scent is immense, evoking memories, emotions and feelings. Perfume can seduce and capture the imagination like few other beauty products can. London entrepreneur and fragrance expert Joanne Malone harnessed this power to create an empire bearing her name, choosing the centre of Verona—beloved by Shakespeare as the setting for Romeo and Juliet, and by visitors worldwide—for one of her iconic Jo Malone London boutiques.

The brand needs no introduction: Jo Malone London has made understated luxury and refined colognes, scents and candles its unmistakable signature.
The boutique sits on Verona’s prime shopping street, Via Mazzini, welcoming visitors with the quiet elegance typical of a brand loved by those who prefer being remembered rather than showing off. There is an extensive selection of colognes for men and women as well as gender-neutral options, such as Incense and Cedrat, perfect for anyone.

English Pear & Freesia is a crisp, fresh ‘skin dress‘ to try straight away, also available as body cream, body wash, candles and diffusers to bring a touch of your personality into your home. True to brand tradition, every store worldwide—and Verona is no exception—features the refined pairing of ebony and cream tones (also found on the bags and gift boxes). The impression is one of whispered, relaxed yet striking luxury, echoed by the clean, squared lines of the iconic bottles.

Every detail, from the fresh flowers to the colours of the floors and walls, shelves and tables, is designed to showcase the fragrances and colognes. Their colour palette ranges from classic transparency and pale straw-yellow to ochre and bolder orange, alongside the occasional bottle in violet-blue or bright red. Verona is a wonderful city: its magnificent Arena and the sights linked to Shakespeare’s young lovers are irresistible draws, but pairing cultural sights with stylish shopping only makes the trip even better.
