Un Jardin en Méditerranée
Un Jardin en Méditerranée by Hermès is an unisex eau de toilette from 2003 in the premium price tier. It opens with bergamot and mandarin, moves into fig leaf, fig, orange blossom and juniper berry and dries down to cedarwood, musk and oakmoss. Expect around 5 hours of wear, and it projects softly.
Notes, explained
Opening
- Bergamot Sharp citrus with a faint bitter edge. The opening of about half of all men's fragrances.
- Mandarin Soft, sweet, almost powdery citrus. Gentler than orange.
Heart
- Fig Leaf Milky, green and slightly coconut-like. The smell of shade.
- Fig Green, milky and jammy at once. One of the most interesting fruits in perfume.
- Orange Blossom Sweet, soapy and sunny. Neroli's warmer sibling.
- Juniper Berry Gin, basically. Piney, dry and bracing.
Dry-down
- Cedarwood Dry, pencil-shaving woodiness. Clean and structural.
- Musk Warm, skin-like and slightly sweet. Makes a fragrance feel like you.
- Oakmoss Damp forest floor. Bitter, green and the backbone of every chypre.
