TRIBUTE
Un Jardin en Mediterranee, the inaugural fragrance of Hermès' Parfums-Jardins collection, created in 2003 by Jean-Claude Ellena, encapsulates the essence of a secretive Tunisian garden. This eau de toilette is a celebration of the lush, vibrant life found within this hidden oasis, offering an immersive sensory journey that combines olfactory, visual, and tactile experiences.
 
BLEND
This fragrance artfully combines the sweet, woody aroma of fig tree with green lentisk and the delicate notes of oleander. Un Jardin en Mediterranee is a fruity and woody eau de toilette that captures the spirit of the Mediterranean landscape, evoking the abundance and tranquility of a secluded garden.
 
MOTIVATION
Un Jardin en Mediterranee was designed to evoke a walk through a luxuriant garden in the heart of Tunisia, reflecting the beauty and serenity of the Mediterranean region. It invites wearers to escape into a world of lush greenery and blooming flowers, where each scent and sight provides a retreat from the everyday.
 
PERFUMING TECHNIQUE
The bottle, designed by Fred Rawyler, is inspired by the elegance of horse-drawn carriage lanterns, featuring a delicate blue gradient that mirrors the Mediterranean's shifting reflections. The packaging, illustrated with the vibrant hues of the South of France by Aurore de la Morinerie, enhances the fragrance experience, making each application a moment of escape to a beautiful, sun-drenched garden.
