i bought it today, the guy in the shop spryed a couple of shots at me as an added bonus. Walked around in my wonderful fig aura. Some girl didn’t like this stuff, but i don’t care. i’m pretty much impressed with the scent and i feel confident with it. can’t wait to try some other product in the same line.
2015 edit: this is the first fragrance i bought in my niche adventure, i have 200 bottles but when it comes to fig fragrances, this is still what i reach for. forget those others suckers. my review refers to the 2012 bottle. now the bottle has changed and comes bigger and cheaper (??) so don’t blame me for the outcome. i know nothing about the new bottle. i tried all the stuff from the original line, and i think you must be an experienced nose to appreciate those frags.

Absolutely nice! A plain simple and minimal fragrance, without being ‘poor’ or spoiled at all!, on the contrary: it has a remarkable and fine personality. It seems really to smell figs! Not only the fruit, but even the tree leaves and something more. Different from other well known fragrances on the same theme (very beautiful for sure!, such as Philosykos, or l’Artisan P.’s Premier Figuier) Here a delicate creamy touch of almond and coconut mark some differences. Thanks to its high concentration it’s a perfume with a wonderful persistence on the skin (without being bold or bad mannered!) even with a hot weather, not so many frags do the same when the barometer indicates more than 35°. Nice sillage also.

Puro Fico by Officina delle Essenze smells exactly the way that Sandrina described it:
“… in the shade of fig tree…”
The perfume is intense (perfume concentation), smells like fig and green notes, but is milky and slightly warm at the same time.
I can picture a woman on a mediterranean beach, she is sitting in the shade of fig trees, she wears sunglasses and a straw hat, or maybe she has wrapped a linen or cotton scarf around her head, she reads a book and enjoys the green, slightly sweet and warm scent and its milky accords which really are reminiscent of “sunkissed skin”.
Perfect.
Some may think of Womanity when they read “fig”, “mediterranean”, “skin”, etc. but I can assure those who are not too fond of Womanity that Puro Fico does not even remotely resemble Womanity.
Puro Fico is rather sophisticated (but not an evening fragrance) and stylish and not an attention-seeker.
Let me put it this way:
Womanity was endorsed Lady Gaga on TV; Puro Fico would be gorgeous on Lana del Rey.
