Jo Malone London recently launched a trio of colognes inspired by garden harvests, and to promote the food-themed scent collection, the Estée Lauder Companies-owned brand teamed up with a beloved green-hued puppet for a Tiny Chef and Jo Malone London campaign.
Tiny Chef is the star of a popular stop-motion cooking show on social media, and this partnership sees him promote the limited-edition Jo Malone London Veggies Collection's key notes of butternut, beetroot and carrot by uncovering each one's unique essence. While one fragrance matches soft, creamy butternut with ginger and patchouli, another rounds out the subtle sweetness of carrot with orange flower and white musk. The last vibrant vegetal cologne, Scarlet Beetroot, incorporates a touch of earthy patchouli and blackcurrant, and Tiny Chef makes a convincing case for experiencing each one.
