Jo Malone CBE

Originally a facial therapist, Jo fell in love with fragrance while working from her discreet skin care clinic, which she set up from her London home. Discovering an instinctual talent for creating scented products by hand in her kitchen, word of her exceptional potions quickly spread and soon Jo was unable to keep up with demand. From these artisan beginnings Jo launched her first brand, Jo Malone London, which gained cult status around the world.

Jo opened her first store at 154 Walton Street, London in 1994. The store was unique, recreating the atmosphere of French perfumer's studio, and quickly became a destination that put Walton Street firmly on the map. It was in the creation of this store that the core values of the Jo Malone brand were developed - a result of Jo's passion and inspiration.

October 1999 was a landmark occasion for the Jo Malone brand, when Estée Lauder announced the acquisition of Jo Malone. Jo remained Chairman, developing products and constantly challenging convention by introducing revolutionary concepts which helped to firmly establish Jo Malone as an innovator within the beauty and lifestyle industry.

Jo spearheaded the worldwide positioning of the Jo Malone brand until January 2006 when both she and her husband Gary left the business.

Two years later, Jo was honoured with an MBE for her services to the beauty industry.

In 2010 Jo turned her talents to television presenting making her debut on BBC One in May. The four part series 'High Street Dreams' conceptualised by Jo herself, saw her back in the tough world of retail using her business experience and entrepreneurial spirit to help small businesses realise their dreams of trading on the great British high street.

In November 2011, Jo launched her new brand Jo Loves to global anticipation and in 2013, Jo open the first Jo Loves store in Belgravia's Elizabeth Street.

Bottling her undeniable desire to create beautiful and unexpected fragrances, pioneering new products and entertaining experiences, Jo Loves embodies integrity, creativity and innovation. Jo Loves’ scents, bath, body and candle collection, are inspired by the memories and moments in life that Jo herself loves and her creative seal of integrity, symbolised by the red dot, is stamped across everything that bears the Jo Loves name. Jo Loves continues to expand globally to this day, with products available across the world and in several categories from Fragrance, Home Candles, Personal Care & Lifestyle Fragrances and Diffusers.

In 2016, Jo published her award-winning autobiography ‘My Story’.

In 2018, Jo was awarded a CBE in the Queen’s Birthday Honours list for her services to the British economy and the GREAT British Campaign, which promotes British creativity and industry on the international stage.
