Fig Infusion

By the editors · 2 min readFig Infusion opens with the green, milky sweetness of fig — not the jammy fruit, but the entire tree: latex-white sap, crushed leaves, and sun-warmed bark. It's immediate and naturalistic, a Mediterranean grove distilled. Within minutes, orange blossom and freesia drift in softly, adding a sheer floral veil that never dominates, just brightens the composition with a hint of waxy petal and citrus.
The base settles into creamy sandalwood and benzoin, with Virginia cedar lending a subtle pencil-shaving dryness that keeps the sweetness in check. The fig never fully disappears, but it becomes quieter, more like a memory than a statement.
This is approachable and easy to wear — clean without being soapy, woody without being heavy. It suits anyone looking for something gentle and green, particularly in warm weather when heavier orientals feel oppressive. A daytime scent that doesn't announce itself from across the room.
