New Perfumes launched 2015 - Hermès Le Jardin de Monsieur Li

Hermès Le Jardin de Monsieur Li 



Le Jardin de Monsieur Li describes a Chinese garden somewhere between reality and imagination. 

A place for meditation where strolling is allied to thought, and every step sets the imagination free.

The nose behind this fragrance is Jean-Claude Ellena. 

The opening is indeed a tart orange, although much rounder and softer than I'd imagined, and nothing like so effervescent or intense as some of the brand's grapefruit-heavy citrus top notes.

 If you're looking for the mouth-puckering first bite of a ripe kumquat, I don't think you'll find it here, and in any case the tartness is relatively short lived. 

After that, think of the most gauzy and transparent Jean-Claude Ellena fragrance you can, and then make it even more soft-spoken.
