THE CREATION
The Eau de Toilette Un Jardin sur le Toit tells the story of a hidden garden in the heart of Paris: a piece of nature on the roof of the Hermès headquarters at 24 Rue du Faubourg Saint-Honoré. Perfumer Jean-Claude Ellena paid tribute to this garden of joy and celebration with the creation of this fragrance in 2011.
THE FRAGRANCE NOTES
The fruity-botanical Eau de Toilette Un Jardin sur le Toit conjures up images of a crisp apple tree growing next to a juicy pear tree in the Parisian air.
THE OBJECT
The bottle, designed by Fred Rawyler, is inspired by the lanterns of horse-drawn carriages of yesteryear. The glass of the bottle glows in a vibrant green. Philippe Dumas, a member of the Hermès family, illustrated the packaging with this garden in the heart of the city.
THE PARFUMS-JARDINS COLLECTION
The Parfums-Jardins collection represents the encounter between the soul of a place, the inspiration of the perfumer, and the theme that Hermès chooses each year for its creations. It is an olfactory journey that fulfills all desires and longings: the longing for freshness, for reverie, and for escape from everyday life.
"A festive yet idiosyncratic garden that stretches toward the light." Jean-Claude Ellena.
Un Jardin sur le Toit is a lively, sparkling tale that offers a glimpse into a secret garden hidden in the heart of Paris. A garden between heaven and earth on the roof of the Hermès building at 24 Faubourg Saint-Honoré.
An apple tree, a pear tree, and a magnolia tree exude their fragrance and, together with wild greenery, create this crisp, fresh, cheerful perfume full of light and joy.
