Launched in 2010 by Annick Goutal, Ninfeo Miowas inspired by the idea of the mythical Garden of the Hesperides Heras orchard in the far west, which the nymphs tended. The inspiration was given life by a visit to Il Giardino di Ninfa the real medieval river garden just south of Rome.

It opens with a citrus blast from Italian lemons and bitter orange, combined with a warm peppery note. As these quiet down, they settle on a bright, green note of galbanum thats tempered by fig. The fig softens the galbanum and sweetens the lemon while giving Ninfeo Mio a soft creaminess. At the drydown, lavender and woody/grassy lentisque envelop the citrus and set it down on a bed of soft musk and satinwood.

Ninfeo Mio is a walk in a garden, an Italian garden - citrus, figs, wood and grass. Goutal excels in creating citrus-based fragrances and Ninfeo Mio is unmatched to this day.

Notes: Italian lemon, galbanum, fig, lavender, musk, satinwood.
