By the editors · 2 min readEau des Jardins opens with a bright citrus rush—grapefruit leading the way, flanked by orange and lemon that feel more zesty than sweet. The bergamot adds a touch of Earl Grey bitterness that keeps the opening from veering into fruit-basket territory. Within minutes, a crisp mint note emerges alongside rose and patchouli, creating an oddly garden-like contrast between herbal coolness and soft florals.
The base settles into earthy patchouli and vetiver with a whisper of cedar, grounded by a clean musk that never intrudes. This is fundamentally a cologne structure—transparent, ephemeral, built for warm weather or post-shower freshness. It doesn't linger dramatically or demand attention, instead offering the kind of unobtrusive cleanliness that works equally well in a corporate setting or weekend errands. The patchouli here is green rather than dark, more greenhouse than head shop.
