4160 Tuesdays The Gin Garden is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2013, created by Sarah McCartney. The Gin Garden opens with Bergamot, Lemon, Bitter Orange, and Petitgrain, settles into a heart of Cassia, Olive, Rose, and Iris, and dries down to a base of Vanilla. 4160 Tuesdays's The Gin Garden carries a Statement verdict, a sweet-led wear.

A divisive scent, The Gin Garden aims for a specific, boozy fresh profile. Some find it surprisingly wearable and evocative, while others detect an odd, unbalanced vibe. It's a curiosity worth sampling, particularly for fans of experimental indie perfumes.

Scent Profile

Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

Its fresh and aromatic character makes it suitable for casual wear, especially on warmer days, and it's unobtrusive enough for some office environments. The unusual profile might be a bit too bold for formal events, but its unique appeal could work for a relaxed date setting.

About

Imagine a vibrant, herbaceous burst that kicks off with a sharp juniper and zesty lemon, akin to fine gin. As it settles, subtle mint and aromatic rosemary weave through, alongside a whisper of floral rose and spicy clove. A touch of nutty almond and warm vanilla provides a soft, comforting base, balancing the initial crispness with a mellow sweetness.
