Un Jardin à Cythère

Un Jardin à Cythère by Hermès is a sun-bleached Woody Aromatic sunbeam for women and men, capturing the wind-swept, wild beauty of a untouched Greek island. Created in 2023 by house perfumer Christine Nagel, this unique creation abandons traditional floral gardens for a dry, golden landscape warmed by the Mediterranean sun.

The fragrance opens with an immediate burst of golden light, where sparkling citrus notes merge with a crisp, breeze-blown green accord, evoking the sensation of sun-warmed wild grasses swaying in the Aegean wind.

At its heart, the scent reveals its most captivating surprise—a distinct, creamy pistachio note that brings a rich, nutty warmth, beautifully balancing the landscape’s dry, airy brightness.

As it settles into the skin, the dry down roots itself in timeless Mediterranean terroir. Smooth, weathered olive tree wood forms a serene, sun-baked foundation, leaving a soft, comforting trail that feels effortlessly luminous and rooted in nature.
