Of Gardens.

Of Gardens takes its name from Francis Bacon’s 1625 essay, a tribute to the endless pleasure of a garden in full bloom. Perfumer Julie Pluchet, working with Moro Dabron’s design ethos, translated that literary reverence into scent in 2023. The fragrance captures the brand’s love of cultivated spaces, turning a garden’s visual poetry into an aromatic experience that feels both historic and immediate.

The composition balances a bright citrus trio with a lush white‑floral core, then anchors the bouquet with an animalic musk and creamy sandalwood. This contrast mirrors a garden’s day‑to‑night rhythm: sharp morning light softening into fragrant dusk. By pairing lemon’s zing with tuberose’s richness, the perfume creates a layered depth that feels both fresh and lingering, a rare harmony in modern perfumery.

The opening erupts like a sunrise over hedgerows, bergamot’s crisp bite and lemon’s sweet zing colliding with neroli’s honeyed glow for the first ten minutes. As the light settles, the heart emerges: jasmine’s creamy silk, orange blossom’s dewy sweetness, and tuberose’s opulent petal richness weave together, forming a garden in full bloom that lasts three to four hours. When the day wanes, musk whispers an animalic warmth while sandalwood spreads a soft, woody earthiness, lingering just beyond the evening, offering a gentle, lingering finish that clings to skin for the remainder of the night.

Framed as an ode to Francis Bacon’s essay, Of Gardens quickly became a reference point for garden‑inspired modern perfumery, praised for marrying literary heritage with a clean, unisex scent. Wearers note its ability to feel at home in both spring picnics and winter lounges, positioning it as a versatile staple that bridges classic garden romance with contemporary minimalism.
