Which fragrance house launched English Pear & Freesia, the Jo Malone London perfume introduced in 2010?

The story behind the answer

Jo Malone London launched English Pear & Freesia, the perfume introduced in 2010.

English Pear & Freesia is one of Jo Malone London’s best-known fragrances. The scent was created by perfumer Christine Nagel and is built around the contrast between ripe pear and floral freesia, with a woody base that gives the composition greater depth.

The fragrance reflects the brand’s characteristic naming style, which places a small number of recognizable ingredients at the center of the product identity. Jo Malone London also promotes fragrance combining, allowing customers to layer different scents rather than treating each cologne as an isolated formula.

The name can be confused with English Pear & Sweet Pea, another Jo Malone London fragrance. Freesia is the defining flower in the 2010 release. Jo Malone London is also distinct from Jo Malone, the perfumer who founded the original company before it was acquired by Estée Lauder Companies.
