Myrrh & Tonka from Jo Malone London is a warm, sweet resinous scent released in 2016 and composed by Mathilde Bijaoui. Everyone describes it as sweet, while a minority also mention resinous and aromatic facets.

It opens with lavender, which here feels soft and herbal rather than sharp, giving a calm, slightly powdery start. The heart is myrrh, a resin with a smoky, gently bitter and almost incense-like warmth that gives the fragrance its depth. The base brings the comfort: tonka bean adds an almond and hay-like sweetness, vanilla a creamy softness and almond a marzipan nuance, so the drydown feels like a cosy, lightly smoky dessert.

People report moderate longevity, with some finding it long lasting, and a moderate trail. It is voted mostly for winter and autumn and leans clearly towards evening, so it suits cold nights, quiet dinners and time at home. It is worn by anyone who enjoys a gentle, warming gourmand with an incense edge.
