Garden idyll

Out of the entire Jardin range, Sur le Toit is the scent that reminds me most of "my" garden (actually my grandparents' garden). A typical Central European garden with knarzigen fruit trees, lots of grass, a few flowers, herbs and vegetable beds.

The opening of this garden is green and fresh. Perhaps it has rained before or a loving gardener waters everything regularly. In any case, the grass is not dry. A short time later, red juicy apples join the mix. Fortunately, the smell doesn't veer into apple shampoos or fruit gum apple rings, it just smells naturally fruity. Not too sweet, not too sour.

Up to this point, Sur le Toit seems flyingly light, with nothing to counter the bright notes. With the heart notes this changes, now slightly earthy notes are used as a counterbalance - or is it the bark of the old fruit trees that smells there? Either way, I think it's great, it creates some balance in the fragrance.

After the meadow, the fruit and the trees have already made their appearance, the flowers come in at the end. I detect a lovely rose and clean magnolia, with the remaining notes never quite disappearing.
Sur le Toit slowly fades out after this visit to the garden. It lingers on the skin for a long time, but gets progressively quieter.

For me, a very successful garden fragrance - green fresh, natural, gentle, somewhat nostalgic.
