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.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer

The crisp green-fruity freshness and transparency make this ideal for spring and summer, recalling blooming gardens and cool air. Its lightness and lack of warmth render it unsuitable for winter and only a gentle fit for autumn.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Office Date Casual
Also Works:
Sport

Its soft projection and clean, non-intrusive profile work exceedingly well for the office and casual settings. The breezy, uplifting style is versatile for daytime and post-gym, but it lacks the depth for formal evening occasions.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

Un Jardin sur le Toit captures the spirit of a secret Parisian rooftop garden, brimming with dewy grass, crisp apple, and succulent pear. Herbal basil and a touch of rose add complexity, while a whisper of magnolia and wood evoke the airiness of foliage in bloom. The composition sparkles with green vibrancy and fruit, delivering a light, sparkling, and utterly wearable freshness that feels both whimsical and sophisticated. It is a modern ode to the outdoors-casual, luminous, and effortlessly uplifting.
