Engineered for long days — the two-step Myrrh & Tonka system that refuses to fade
Myrrh & Tonka LongWear System™ — The Long-Lasting Perfume Layering Set Inspired by Jo Malone Myrrh & Tonka
Two-Step Layering System · HumanSafe™ Verified · Cruelty-Free · Made in California
You spray your favorite fragrance at 8 a.m. By lunch, it’s gone — or at least, you can no longer smell it. The LongWear System™ was built to solve exactly that. Instead of asking one bottle to do everything, it splits the work between two formulas designed to be applied in sequence: a concentrated perfume oil that lays a lasting foundation, and an Eau de Parfum that adds lift and trail on top. The result is our Jo Malone Myrrh & Tonka–inspired scent at its most enduring and most noticeable.

Why Perfume Fades — and How Layering Fixes It
Fragrance disappears for two reasons: the alcohol that carries it evaporates, and bare skin gives scent molecules very little to hold on to. Applying a perfume oil first gives the Eau de Parfum a richer surface to settle into. The spray’s opening notes still rise and radiate as usual, while the base layer keeps feeding warmth back into the composition hours later. Two layers, one seamless scent — with far more staying power and a fuller trail than a single spray can manage.
Inside the System
-
Step 1 — Base Layer: Myrrh & Tonka Intense Perfume Oil, 0.33 fl oz / 10 ml roll-on. Its job: anchor the scent and extend the dry-down.
-
Step 2 — Projection Layer: Myrrh & Tonka Intense Eau de Parfum, 0.27 fl oz / 8 ml spray. Its job: lift, radiance and sillage.
Both are matched to the same formula, so the two layers reinforce each other instead of competing.
The 60-Second Routine
-
Lay the base — Roll the perfume oil across your wrists, the sides of your neck and your chest. Give it a minute to set.
-
Seal with spray — Mist the Eau de Parfum over the same spots from about six inches away, plus one spritz on your scarf or collar.
-
Recharge after dark — Both pieces fit in a jacket pocket. Before evening plans, one fresh spritz over the base wakes the whole accord back up.
Dial In Your Trail
-
Workday — Base layer plus one spray. Polished and present, never overwhelming.
-
After hours — Base layer plus two or three sprays. A warm trail that stays in the room after you leave it.
-
Big occasion — Base layer, three or four sprays and a night-time refresh. Maximum presence from the ceremony to the last dance.
How It Wears Through a Long Day
-
Morning — The spray opens with a calm, aromatic lift of lavender over the warming base.
-
Afternoon — Right when a single spray would start to fade, smoky, resinous myrrh holds steady.
-
Night — Tonka, vanilla and almond glow at their fullest: sweet, warm and still clearly there.
Built for Days That Don't End at Five
- Twelve-hour workdays, double shifts and back-to-back meetings.
- Travel days with long-haul flights and layovers — both sizes are carry-on friendly.
- Weddings, galas, holiday parties and date nights that start straight from the office.
- Anyone who has ever said, “Perfume just doesn’t last on me.”
Smart Value, Ready to Gift
The complete system costs less than buying each format separately, and its travel-friendly sizes make it an easy way to test the scent before investing in a full-size bottle. With the holiday season ahead, it is also a thoughtful gift for anyone who loves warm, cozy amber fragrances — a complete fragrance ritual in one set.
Made Transparent in California
Both formulas are developed and blended in-house in California, independently HumanSafe™ Verified, cruelty-free, IFRA compliant and made without phthalates or parabens. Our full ingredient lists are published openly — because a fragrance you wear from morning to night is one you deserve to understand.
LongWear System™ FAQ
How is the LongWear System™ different from buying the EDP alone?
The EDP on its own gives you projection. The system adds a dedicated base layer underneath, so the scent lasts longer and the dry-down stays richer.
Do I need to use both steps every time?
For maximum longevity, yes. On shorter days the spray works perfectly on its own — the base layer is there whenever you need extra staying power.
Is it a good gift?
Yes. It is one of our most complete ways to experience a fragrance, and the scent's warm, unisex character suits almost anyone.
Is the LongWear System™ unisex?
Yes. Lavender, myrrh and tonka create a balanced amber profile that wears beautifully on everyone.
