About this fragrance
Un Jardin Sur Le Nil
Un Jardin Sur Le Nil is an Eau de Toilette floral fruity fragrance from Hermès, created for both women and men by master perfumer Jean-Claude Ellena and released in 2005. Inspired by the banks of the Nile River in Egypt, it captures something genuinely rare in perfumery: the green, watery freshness of a lush garden in an arid landscape. Crisp grapefruit and unripe mango open alongside an unusual tomato and carrot accord that gives the fragrance its distinctive earthy, vegetal character. It suits warm-weather wearing and those who prefer something quietly unconventional.
This is a fragrance for anyone drawn to understated, nature-rooted compositions that feel more like a place than a perfume. Light, serene and quietly compelling, it rewards those willing to slow down and pay attention.

What to Expect
The opening arrives with zesty grapefruit and green mango layered over a distinctive tomato and carrot note that reads as cool, slightly earthy and genuinely unexpected. The heart softens into lotus and bulrush alongside hyacinth, peony and a whisper of orange, conjuring still water and damp reeds. The dry down settles into a warm base of iris, musk, incense, labdanum and a touch of cinnamon. Projection is moderate and intimate, with longevity sitting around four to six hours on skin.
