THE CREATION
The Un Jardin à Cythère eau de toilette is a creation by Christine Nagel, perfumer at Hermès. The fragrance evokes the image of a surprising garden: not a plant or flower garden, but a blonde garden. It takes you on a fragrant journey through the Peloponnese that ends on Kythira, an authentic Greek island that has served as inspiration for countless artists.
FRAGRANCE NOTES
The citrus and woody scent of the Un Jardin à Cythère eau de toilette combines the intense character of grasses with the power of olive wood and the tenderness of fresh pistachios.
THE OBJECT
The bottle was designed by Fred Rawyler and inspired by the lines of old carriage lanterns. The glass features a bright yellow gradient reminiscent of the sunny scent of the eau de toilette. The packaging is adorned with an illustration by the artist Elias Kafouros: a colorful Greek landscape with golden grass, green olive trees, fresh pink pistachios, and the blue sea in the background.
THE GARDEN PERFUMES COLLECTION
The Gardens collection is the result of the meeting between the soul of a place, the perfumer's inspiration, and the theme that the House of Hermès chooses each year to highlight its creation. A fragrant journey for those who long for freshness and contemplation and want to get away from it all for a while.
