HermèsUn Jardin sous la Mer Eau de Toilette, 3.4 oz.

The Creation: With Un Jardin sous la Mer Eau de Toilette, Hermes perfumer Christine Nagel ventures out into the beyond with an invitation to discover a surprising garden. An escape to the faraway Polynesian island of Taha'a: an unspoiled land where mountains and reefs, plants and corals converse in perfect harmony. The Olfactory Notes: Un Jardin sous la Mer is a floral and musky eau de toilette that combines a radiant tiare flower with the enveloping character of the tamanu nut and mineral notes that evoke the coral reef. The Object: Designed by Fred Rawyler, the bottle is inspired by the lines of horse-drawn carriage lanterns. Its graduated shades of blue reflect the azure sky and the crystalline waters of the lagoon around Taha'a. The box features watercolor illustrations by artist Aino-Maija Metsola, depicting the vibrant life and colors of the coral reef. The Hermes Detail: For each Parfum-Jardin, the House invites an artist to illustrate the box, giving them carte blanche to create a poetic expression of the garden through drawing. "Drawing is everything at Hermes, and everything starts with a drawing", comments Pierre-Alexis Dumas, artistic director at Hermes. The Ethics: The bottle can be replenished using the 6.8 oz. refill (sold separately). The Parfums-Jardins Collection: The Parfums-Jardins collection brings together the soul of a place, the perfumer's inspiration, and the theme chosen by Hermes each year to nourish its creativity. They are olfactory strolls to share for every moment, to indulge every desire for freshness, reverie, or escape. 3.4 oz./ 100 mL
