Jo Malone fans can get 'best holiday scent' for £6.88 with clever deal

If you're looking for a little midweek treat, or you're already shopping for stocking stuffers, fragrance is always a great idea. And there's a clever way to get a bottle of a well-loved seasonal Jo Malone scent for less than £8, thanks to a clever deal.

Fans of the brand have been waiting for the return of the limited edition Ginger Biscuit cologne, which was first launched in 2013 as part of the Sugar and Spice collection. It has sporadically returned over the years in 2019, 2023 and now, to the delight of shoppers, again in 2025.

A full-size 100ml bottle will set you back £128 from Jo Malone's website, but those put off by the price or simply curious about the scent can grab a 10ml bottle from LookFantastic for £25. However, there's a way to secure an even bigger saving: new members of TopCashback and LookFantastic can get it for as low as £6.88 after cashback.

The discount website is offering new members a £15 sign-up bonus after spending £15 or more, as well as cashback, making the cologne £6.88 after all discounts have been applied. To get it at this price, simply make your purchase through this unique link.

Ginger Biscuit is a gourmand scent, meaning it has sweet, dessert-like notes. True to its name, according to the brand, it's meant to smell like a "just-baked biscuit."

The last time it graced the shelves, it featured a black and white bow and a brown bottle, but this year, it has swapped the bow for a red lid resembling a gumdrop. The scent is described as starting off spicy with ginger, cinnamon, and nutmeg before sweetening up with a blend of caramel and hazelnut. The base has notes of vanilla and tonka bean.

According toOK!'s fragrance expert Jada Jones, Ginger Biscuit is a bit sweet but "quite comfortably unisex." She wrote: "To me, it smells like baking gingerbread with a loved one with the heating on while wearing a luxurious body butter."

She continued, "Ginger Biscuit is a sophisticated gourmand fragrance. It's not overpowering, but it's the type of scent people comment on when hugging me. This is great for everyday wear, and I've honestly been reaching for it every day since I got my bottle."

Jo Malone has also released two more limited edition seasonal scents: Orange Bitters and Sandalwood and Spiced Apricot.

Fans on Jo Malone's website are pleased Ginger Biscuit is back, with one saying: "Bought two bottles this year, for myself, as this to me is Jo Malone's very best. Please bring it back every Christmas, forever!"

Another wrote: "The smell is amazing, really gives me that warm, fuzzy, holiday feeling. I typically wear floral scents, and sometimes citrus. I was looking for a nice winter scent and this is it."

They went on: "It reminds me of fresh, warm baked gingerbread cookies with vanilla icing, but not in an overly done teen scent way. It smells warm and pleasant, and I just love it. I plan on wearing this starting in November and will probably wear it until January or February. This scent is so fun and would make a great holiday gift if you're able to score one in store."

One customer complained about the perfume's longevity, saying it "vanishes in thin air". But shoppers should keep in mind that Ginger Biscuit is a cologne, meaning its formula is by default lighter than an eau de parfum, for example.

Nevertheless, other shoppers have said it "lasts all day". Jada added: "It has a great longevity. The very first time I put it on, it lasted six hours, and I could still smell it. That was just before I went to bed, and I couldn't smell it by the morning, but it's rare for a perfume to last over 18 hours on me."
