Mediterranean Fig Grove — Inspired by Hermès Un Jardin en Méditerranée (2003)

Mediterranean Fig Grove is a ScentLab33 interpretation for customers who enjoy the fragrance direction of Hermès Un Jardin en Méditerranée (2003). Its character is a sunlit Mediterranean garden of green fig leaves, aromatic cypress and dry coastal woods. The composition is concise, distinctive and designed for modern European and North American wardrobes, with enough clarity for regular wear and enough depth to feel considered.

Fragrance Notes and Development

Top Notes

Bergamot, Lemon, Green leaves. The opening provides the first burst of freshness, spice, fruit or aromatic lift and establishes the fragrance’s immediate personality.

Heart Notes

Fig leaf, Oleander, Orange blossom. These notes form the main identity after the opening settles, adding the floral, green, mineral, tea-like or spicy character that defines the scent.

Base Notes

Cypress, Cedar, Pistachio wood, Musk. The drydown adds structure, warmth and skin-level persistence, leaving the fragrance smoother and more grounded over time.

Estimated Longevity

• EDT: approximately 5–7 hours on skin.
• EDP: approximately 7–9 hours on skin.

Wear time is an estimate, not a guarantee. Skin type, climate, application, clothing and storage can all change performance. Apply to moisturised skin and clothing-safe areas for a longer-lasting result.

Style and Wear Guide

Pair it with open-collar shirts, linen trousers, suede loafers and light neutral tailoring. Use two to four sprays for offices or close indoor settings. Add one extra spray for outdoor plans or evening wear. EDT gives a lighter, more diffusive result; EDP makes the heart and base feel fuller and generally lasts longer.

Perfumer’s Note

“The fig is leafy rather than sugary; cypress and cedar give the garden its dry, elegant frame.”
