Press and influencers joined Jo Malone London to celebrate English Pear & Freesia (the brand's big campaign for 2022), enjoying an English style high tea in a nod to the brand’s British heritage.
The event was held at Palm House within the Royal Botanic Gardens in Sydney, across two sessions.
The sessions both had exciting panel discussions with guest hosts, Eleanor Pendleton and Jessica Nguyen, who also educated guests on the pillars that are so integral to the Jo Malone London brand, such as scent pairing, gifting and personalisation with a number of interactive stations.
