“A citrusy gender neutral fragrance designed to lift the user’s spirits. Best of all. 2.5 per cent of profits go to environmental charities, making it the perfect scent for your eco-friendly friends”.
“They deserve to be discovered”
Stephan Matthews, perfume expert and writer. October 2021
“The fragrance opens with an incredible citrus burst that offers an invigorating rather than a mouth-watering effect. The blend of bergamot and grapefruit add the zesty quality that you’d expect, but the clever use of the green-tinged lemon myrtle and a bittersweet petitgrain provide an exciting edginess. The heart of the scent reveals a fascinatingly aromatic floral duality with rose and the honey-touched linden flower bouncing perfectly off a ginger and coriander pairing, but the addition of geranium adds a wonderfully androgynous quality. The final development of no.1 sees elegant cedarwood and a peppery resinous labdanum come into play but, unlike many other natural fragrances, they are used with both a delicate and expert hand.”
Thank you Stephan Matthews for the photo.

“Frustrated by the amount of synthetic ingredients in commercial fragrances, friends Catrin MacDonnell and Hemali Modha decided to make a scent that went back to perfume’s botanical roots. Made in small batches by the pair in Somerset, Jones & Modha No.1 uses only naturally derived notes to create a crisp woody-citrusy juice that works for both men and women. Better yet, it reacts to the oils in your skin as it develops, meaning you’ll never smell the same as anyone else”
For men who want to look, feel and smell great whilst remaining ethical and doing their bit for the planet. This article will point you in the right direction.
