In The Garden
Regular price $ 160.00From d'Annam
In The Garden is a tribute to the Vietnamese garden, inspired by fond memories of founder Nick’s visits to his grandmother in the countryside. Those were childhood days spent playing in the garden, surrounded by scents of lime trees, elegant jasmine and native flora. In The Garden is a deeply personal homage that connects us to our grandmother's love.
From the Perfumer
"In The Garden is a white floral scent that highlights Vietnam's floral diversity. Although jasmine dominates, its potency is balanced with the sweetness of rangoon creeper and coconut. The inclusion of petitgrain and neroli in the opening introduces a light citrus profile, enhancing clarity and freshness. To us, this scent personifies a comforting embrace from a loved one."

Sample Orders
Samples are designed to help you evaluate scents you might want to later purchase as a full bottle. You may order one sample per fragrance, up to 15 total in a single order. Samples are non-refundable.
For sample orders, please check your packing slip for a special code that will allow you to redeem the price of samples and sample shipping when purchasing full bottles of the scents you sample ($10 off full bottles).
Complimentary Samples
We provide complimentary samples with $75+ full-bottle purchases. You may request up to 3 samples with any qualifying order. Please use the Order Note section on the Shopping Cart overlay to let us know which complimentary samples you would like. We'll try to provide the scents you've requested, but substitutions may occur if items are out of stock.
Returns
We do not accept returns of perfumes, simply because perfumes can't be resold once they've been opened and used. We encourage you to order samples before purchasing full bottles of perfume. And here's the good news — with every sample purchased, we'll send you a coupon code that allows you to redeem the cost of the sample and sample shipping if you buy a full bottle of the fragrance you tried (in other words, you get $10 off).
Please contact orders@ministryofscent.com if you have a question or issue related to your order or shipping.
This one is in the running for a signature fragrance. I got the sampler set and was quite taken with all of them. But this one in particular wins the prize. It opens with a very bright, very green and zesty hit of petigrain and neroli. Like all of the fragrances in this sampler, it somehow expands, opens up, and becomes even more complex for quite a while. It fades into a wonderful mixture of white flowers. But unlike other white flower fragrances, this is very subtle by that time, not shouty, very graceful and inviting. Absolutely love it.
