    This is probably one of the most intense strongest and potent fig scents out there. Last all day. An outdoor type scent for sure. This stuff projects and last. I got noticed. This is a juicy greasy fig sandalwood scent.

    I bought this because reviews are good, one of them even said its similar to Jardin in Mediterranee by Hermes, one of my favourite summer scent… also its so cheap… how naive I was. Zegna Milan its one of the worst fragrances Ive ever had, so synthetic and unpleasant cheap spray.

    At first spray, a blast of fig with hints of coconut, 5-10 minutes later, hints of resin from the sandalwood present itself. The scent finally blooms with the clary sage making an earthy and slightly floral presence within an hour after application mixing with the creamy sweet fig to form an arms length of scent projection around me.
    2 hours later, the overall scent finally settled down with a mixture of creamy fig and woody resin with hints of earthy as well as sweetness.
    4 hours later, scent projection reduced to skin level where it remains for next 8 hours.
    Overall, this is a very pleasant and safe office scent. Surprised to discover that I love this scent that seems to agree with the hot and humid (35-40C) tropical weather.

    Inside – 72F/22C, air conditioned (dry)
    Outside – 83F/28C, 69% humidity
    Starts off with a blast of fig, not overwhelming. 5 minutes later it settles down to a soothing scent. I’d say it is a strong moderate sillage, leaves a trail indoors. Last time I wore this, it was still a skin scent the next morning.
    The sweetness of fig is countered by the clary sage to not make it too sweet, and I do detect a hint of the sandalwood.
    Overall this is a very pleasant fragrance suitable for the workplace and informal activities. Listed below 30$ for about 100ml, a great purchase. The shot of sandalwood elevates this to a suitable fragrance for semi formal occasions.
    Update: 7 hours +, Inside it seems to be a skin scent but is easily noted on my arms. Stood outside during a steady rain (covered) and caught a waft of the fragrance, so sillage is still moderate. Still a semi-sweet fig note.

    This starts out with a nice sweet fig with hints of coconut to my nose, then the fig mellows, and I get an decentt fig and sage combo that smells wonderful. After about 3-4 hours though, it’s down to a skin scent. The fig is a memory, and I’m in Iso-E Super land. Sillage was moderate the whole time… not overpowering.
    That was after one spray. I am guessing this will get better with multiple sprays.
    This is a good scent. Those that like fig will enjoy this one for sure. But for the $25-$35 price range, Noble Fig by Ferrari is the better scent. It is more complex and interesting, and doesn’t overpower with Iso-E Super.
    With other fig scents I like both Hermes Jardin en Mediterranee and Atelier Figuier Ardent better though. I do also like Annick Goutal Ninfeo Mio, but that is too feminine for my tastes. All of the above are similar to this scent. HJEM is more woody and earthy, AFA is more citrusy, and AGNM is more green.
    Z Milan is a decent creamy fig that could be used formally and informally. It is a men’s fragrance, but I do think the right woman could use it as well.
    Good scent, and great value, but give Noble Fig a glance too.
    My rating of fig-based fragrances are as follows with my impression of them:
    1- Jardin in Mediterranee by Hermes: Fantastic natural fig/woody fragrance with 6-8 hour longevity
    2- Noble Fig by Ferrari: green fig/sage with decent longevity and minimal sillage
    3- Fico de Amalfi by Acqua di Parma: light fig/citrus blend. Summer fragrance with minimal sillage and longevity
    4- Figuier Ardent by Atelier Cologne: sweet/green fig with milky citrus. Sillage and Longevity are moderate/good
    5- Ninfeo Mio by Annick Goutal: very green leaf/ivy/citrus scent where the fig takes a while to emerge. Decent sillage/longevity.
    6- Zegna Milan by Ermenegildo Zegna: Simple fig mixed with Iso E Super. Lasts a while and sillage is moderate

    I am only wearing this for the second time.
    In fact it is still too chilly for it. But as I noticed the first time a few weeks ago, this thing shines an Aura around me like very few other Summer fragrances can.
    The fig will be noticed the entire livespan of the fragrance, which is considerable.
    My next wear will be later this week as they expect to weather to heat up, up to 23C.
    It might be too sweet than.
    I will update
    This year so far, I have bought 30 fragrances.
    Some expensive, some cheap, some even niche. This one is probably the most surprising of them all.
    Low price, great performance. A must have for fig lovers I guess.

    It’s…ok, although I’m a bit disappointed. I would not classify this as a ‘fig’ fragrance, and I made the mistake of blind buying it and am now regretting it. I would say it’s ‘herbal’ and even kinda ‘resiny’ more than fig. There’s definitely some fig in there but it’s not the number one thing I would associate this with – if you’re looking for a bona fide FIG perfume, then Philosykos is a much better bet I would say. That’ll teach me to blind buy!

    I think this one with its strong and fruity fig note is much more interesting and distinctive than the Shanghai edition, and this time thankfully matches its attractive light green presentation. I also like the black rubber (plastic actually) band around the bottles in this series which seems to be nothing more than a pointless design device. It has good quality ingredients with good longevity and moderate sillage on my skin. I reckon it’s also the most distinctive/unique of the 3 in the cities collection. But despite its excellence, there is a caveat, which is that I suspect its linearity might get boring with repeated use. Also, seeing that the brand is quintessentially Italian, I’m surprised and a little disappointed that they didn’t call the scent “Milano” instead of the exonym “Milan”.

    Make no mistake – this is an interesting, very well blended Fig-heavy scent. Not your regular mainstream designer generic sh*t. If you ever been to an original Mediterranean city, you’d probably smelled something similar in the air on a warm summer evening, sea breeze mixing with the warmth of fig trees. This scent brings me back to my hometown, full of fig and bitter orange (neroli) trees. Maybe I am biased in that sense. However, I strongly disagree (regardless of my subjective opinion) to the very harsh reviews (to be precise @Robinfv’s).
    Perhaps only negative comment is that this is a bit linear as it doesn’t hold much, so if you’re looking for a journey of notes, you won’t get it. It starts with fig, ends with fig. Surely you get some santal-woody vibe escorting the fig towards the dry down.
    Also, it’s not heavy sweet. Somehow it’s sweet, but not cloying, almost fresh-sweet. I have used it a lot in 25-30C degrees, and also 5-10C degrees. It works for all seasons, but to me this is the smell of spring-summer, a sunny day out, sea side and good vibes.
    You can find very good deals online, and for the quality it’s definetely a steal. Amongs the new Z-series (New York, Milan, Shangai) this is my favorite. I’m happy that it’s not widely spread yet. Hope it stays that way.
    Longevity: 5 sprays goes 4-5 hours easy on skin, first 3 hours well projecting and of course stays 8+ hours on clothes. But with this type of smell, you shouldn’t seek for huge performance. It just performs enough, to linger around you and attract enough attention.
    Sillage: Low-moderate

    Truth be told, this juice is not designed for warm days, and weird to be released in a mainstream line other than in one of its niche lines. That said, it is so well-blended, creative and rather sophisticated than what does it read on official pyramid. Oh please, only three accords, seriously?!
    Milan opens with a fig-dried fruits, and with a nuance of santalwood and definately reminds me of L’Artisan Parfumeur Premier Figuier Extreme, just without coconut. Think about mix three drops of Figuier Extreme with two drops of Diptyque Volutes EdT (not EdP, the two concentrations are very different from each other!), that’s the opening! As I can tell, it’s creamy, sweet, honey and has a hint of tart aftertaste to it.
    After a while, Milan becomes unpredictable somehow. To be specific, it evolves into a Amouage Lyric for Woman-like or Serge Lutens Santal Majuscule-like drydown, where the complexity of Milan lies in someplace between these two. Frankincense, rose, leather, saffron, iris, benzoin and opopanax are all blended quite nice as did, typically, in some really expensive niche orientals. Yes, you may notice that these accords are not listed on the official pyramid that marketing department made up.
    Milan is totally unisex, and a high quality offering and way beyond my expectation from what I paid for it. If you are a fan of above-mentioned fragrance you’d better check this out.
    Just one thing to be added, you should be very careful about the rest two, namely Shanghai and New York, in this line.Rating: 7.5/10

    I do not take a serious comment that tries to underestimate with nonsense as a designer scent or similar bs. Zegna leaves the impression in every piece of work that someone with silk white gloves gives a final touch of inspection and control… I’m sorry we live in mass consumer stupidity of “brands” and “titles”. Personaly i know a few highly educated naturaly stupid proffesors, but there is also a few that will never make compromises to survive!
    Almost to forget, this is a fig tree under the spring or summer heat. Wonderful!!!

    I’m currently wearing Milan and I love it. The initial blast of slightly bitter smokiness soon fades to a sweet, intense fig smell. It’s staying very sweet still, and will dry to a sweet sandalwood note, I reckon. A really interesting scent from Zegna!

    This is interesting and a million miles away from Zegna’s original Z fragrance.
    It’s a very dry woody fig with some smoke and a touch of sweetness. Unusually for a fig fragrance, it is not paired with any sort of coconut, or vanilla, or other fruit. The representation of fig here appears to encompass the whole fig tree, rather than just the fruit and/or leaves. In that respect it is unique, however on my skin it does remind me of something that I wish I could recall (but not necessarily another fig fragrance).
    Although there are only 3 notes listed above, it certainly seems to have additional notes other than just those listed. I can absolutely detect a very specific smoke note that wouldn’t ordinarily come from either fig, clary sage, or sandalwood (unless you were burning sandalwood incense). I also clearly detect an amberish (not ambergris) resinous quality to the drydown that appears to come from either Labdanum, benzoin, or even myrrh. I guess it could be sandalwood, but not how I would ordinarily recognize it.
    Longevity for an EDT is average to moderate at about 6 or 7 hours and projection is fairly soft. While I can smell it on myself quite clearly, when I asked a work colleague what she thought of it, she did need to come pretty close to detect it. She liked it well enough but commented that it was quite soft.
    Overall, this is a very pleasant (if a bit unusual) new scent from Zegna and appears to be a bit of a departure from its usual non-Essenze line. If like me you are a fig lover, I would suggest getting your hands on a tester to try this out. If however you don’t like fig, I would stay well away.
