Hermès Jour d’Hermes Gardenia is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2015, created by Jean-Claude Ellena. Jour d’Hermes Gardenia opens with Citrus and Galbanum, settles into a heart of Rose, Jasmine, Tuberose, and Ylang-Ylang, and dries down to a base of Musk and Iris. Hermès's Jour d’Hermes Gardenia carries a Favourite verdict, a white floral-led wear.

This Hermes offering is a polarising take on gardenia: some find it a fresh, modern white floral masterpiece, while others are met with an old-fashioned, sour-to-the-point-of-bleach scrubber. Definitely not a safe blind buy, so test before you commit.

Its sharp, clean white floral profile makes it suitable for office wear, despite some finding it potent. While it's generally considered elegant enough for dates and formal occasions, the citrusy freshness might feel out of place in some settings. It's not particularly suited for sport given its floral nature.

About

Jour d’Hermes Gardenia opens with a sharp, almost green citrus blast that quickly mellows into a dominant white floral heart. Tuberose and jasmine weave through the prominent gardenia, offering a delicate creaminess alongside an intriguing animalic edge. A subtle, clean musk rounds out the composition, keeping it from becoming overly sweet or heavy.
