Dusty soapy figs.
First it hits with milk honey for few seconds then turns quite dusty and some sort of soil fertile with the core of figs. The dust is dry and sharp and conquers it all.
It begins superb and settles bad.

Aha! the penny drops! at last I’m working out this sandalwood thing! Just reviewed L’Artisan Parfumeur Bois Farine and Nest White Sandalwood, can’t abide either, but Syconium has made it all make sense. This has a large dollop of honeyed fig to juice up the plastery, almondy, papery, floury note afforded by the sandalwood, making it less dry-iris than Bois Farine and less marzipan than White Sandalwood. For me, still throat-chokingly dry, and I speak as an iris-lover. But it’s not all about me!

Beautiful frag with a terrible name. Makes me think of Meconium, which is not a particularly appealing association.

I had never heard of SYCONIUM before I got a sample in a swap and when I first checked it – I had so much hopes! I always do when trying fig perfumes as after so many tries none have worked on me.
The thing about SYCONIUM is – there is no fig, none at all, but oh boy is this a little gourmand heaven. A milky sandalwood with just a bit of honey added – nutty, gourmand and so very, very innocent! It lasted only 4 hours and stayed very, very close to skin, so I couldn’t justify the price tag.
It does resemble a bit SL Jeaux de Peau minus the spices and all the heaviness. SYNCONIUM is all about the most innocent accords – a wonderful skin scent which unfortunately lacks in the longevity department.
Really something different from the all Maria Candida Gentile line as all the others are more straight forward, more heavy and powerful.

Absolutely delicious. Pulpy, ripened fig in a wooden bowl, poured over with honeyed milk. One of my favorite fig fragrances to date. So incredibly comforting and divine.
