HE90 Un Jardin En Mediterranee

Un Jardin en Mediterranee is Jean-Claude Ellena's ode to a Mediterranean fig tree, built on a soft, milky fig-leaf accord over green citrus, and it's one of the most imitated scents in the Un Jardin line. Jubilee's HE90 has drawn genuinely strong praise for its accuracy, with customers describing it as nearly identical to the real thing and one calling it the best copy they've ever tried. The bergamot-lemon-mandarin opening and the fig-leaf-cypress base both track closely with the original's fresh, green Mediterranean character. The main divergence is in restraint: Hermes' original keeps the fig drier and sparer, emphasising bark and sun-baked leaves over sweetness, while HE90's fig reads slightly juicier and more rounded. Given the original's own longevity is famously modest as an EDT, this dupe holds its own reasonably well through a warm afternoon.
