This is one that I’ve had for a while and neglected. Applying it, I immediately remember what drew me to it in the first place, and I think “yes, it was a sound choice!”.
That fig note – fruity, but a bit fougère simultaneously. I don’t normally (but do sometimes) rock fruity perfumes, but the fig note is one that I will rock even when it is not one of those rare ‘fruity perfume’ times.
Wouldn’t say there’s anything truly remarkable about this fragrance – it’s basically just one that delivers straightforwardly. You want to rock a figgy perfume with generous amberiness to set the ‘theme’ note? and no big surprises or shock & awe, or any of that kind of thing? Well, this may well be what does the trick. It’s basically a fig+amber combo with well-measured admixture of ancilliary notes to frame and garnish it, and a sheer stoutness and solidity answering adequately to its lower high-end pricepoint.
My update on this after a few hours been out with it on could hardly be more shining! My sense of smell is constantly telling me that I am positively oozing a scrumptious glistening drippy amber (but not a gassy amber – not this one), but with that fig note riding on it like a surfer surfing a wave. Or maybe that does it an injustice … no , I think the fig note is shaping the amber, rather than just riding on it.
I’ve gotten a really earnest compliment also: this woman who wanted to know all about what it was, where I’d got it, etc (including how much it cost, which to my great relief she wasn’t shocked by!), saying that she was passing through its trail whenever she passed near me; and as I was carrying it in my bag (reapplication turning out redundant as it happened) I offered her a spritz of it, which she gladly accepted.
Definitely a totally satisfactory acquisition, this one – better than I dared expect!

Fresh perfume, pleasant and transversal for men and women. Very abundant fig notes and well-balanced citrus notes. Good sillage. A welcome surprise.
