Le Jardin de Monsieur Li EDT

Le Jardin de Monsieur Li Eau de Toilette is a serene and contemplative fragrance created by Jean-Claude Ellena for Hermès, inspired by the tranquil beauty of a Chinese garden. This fragrance invites you to slow down, to experience the moment. Like a stroll past water features, fragrant shrubs, and stone paths under a soft morning mist. The perfume explores the intersection of nature and philosophy, where every scent is a reminder of peace and balance.

The composition opens with the refined freshness of jasmine blossom, mingling with spicy notes of kumquat and a hint of mint. An aquatic bamboo accord emerges at the heart. Green, airy, and meditative, as if walking among rustling leaves and rippling water. The fragrance settles on a subtle woody base of incense and musk, anchoring the perfume with a quiet, spiritual warmth.

Le Jardin de Monsieur Li is a fragrance for those who find beauty in simplicity and tranquility. Light, transparent, and with a refined composition that never overwhelms, yet lingers softly on the skin. The bottle, clear with a sunny yellow glow, reflects the early morning atmosphere of the garden where this fragrance is set. A subtly poetic perfume that brings peace and commemorates the art of slowing down.
