By the editors · 2 min readThe opening is all fig—not the candied sweetness of jam, but something greener and milkier, with the faint latex sharpness of split stems. It's fresh but grounded, like walking through a sun-warmed orchard rather than biting into fruit.
As it settles, iris and narcissus emerge with a soft, powdery coolness that tempers the fig's ripeness. The iris lends a subtle earthiness, while narcissus adds a honeyed floral quality that never turns cloying. The interplay feels restrained, almost understated.
Atlas cedar in the base provides a dry, woody anchor that keeps everything tethered. This isn't a fig soliflore—it's fig framed by florals and wood, creating something wearable and uncomplicated. Best suited to someone looking for an easy daytime scent that feels natural without being overly literal about it.
